Description Features Crutchfield Hands-on Research Accessories
 

Denon's DRA-397 is your ticket to dynamic stereo sound and advanced digital entertainment options. This versatile receiver delivers 80 watts x 2 channels of high-current Denon amplification for bringing your favourite tunes to life. Rock-solid Denon construction ensures that your sound stays clean and pure.

XM Satellite Radio compatibility
The DRA-397 lets you tune in traditional AM/FM radio stations and even add exciting XM Satellite Radio programming to your system. Simply add an optional XM Mini-Tuner package and an XM subscription to access more than 170 digital channels of music, talk, news, and sports.

iPod® integration
Add the optional Denon ASD-1R control dock to get more enjoyment from your iPod. You can listen to your digital music collection with the outstanding sound quality of the DRA-397 and your best speakers. The dock also features an S-video output that lets you view your iPod's photos and videos on a TV. You can also use the receiver's remote to control your iPod while it's docked.

Versatile connections for multi-room audio
The receiver's back panel offers enough inputs to hook up three audio components, including a turntable, and three audio/video components. Three-room/two-source capability gives you flexible whole-house entertainment options. You can enjoy one audio or video source in your main room while housemates watch or listen to another source in two additional rooms. (You'll need amplifiers or powered speakers for the second and third rooms.) Or, if you don't need to play multiple sources simultaneously, use the DRA-397's extra set of speaker outputs to power an additional pair of speakers in another room. With this simpler setup, you won't need to buy a second amplifier.

Reviewer: Doug from Reston, Va  
Fine receiver, although it is difficult to read the labels on the options on the unit---some color differentiation would help

Reviewer: William from Antigo Wi.  
This receiver is just ok. A little to much distortion at higher volume levels. Not what I expected from a Denon.


 
I'm impressed! December 20, 2007
Reviewer: Edmund from Beckley, WV  
I purchased this receiver to replace a JVC RX-503 (along with a JVC CD player and Cerwin-Vega speakers) I bought from Crutchfield about 20 years ago.  Along with the receiver, I purchased a Denon DCM-390 CD player and a pair of Polk Audio Monitor 70 speakers.

I can't get over how clear this system sounds.  The soundstage is incredible.  Clean highs and tight bass make for a very enjoyable listening experience.

Thanks Crutchfield for yet another wonderful stereo system!
