Denon DRA-900H Network Stereo Receiver

Denon DRA-900H Network Stereo Receiver

Denon DRA-900H is a network stereo receiver with HDMI connectivity and FM/DAB+ radio. Two power-amplifier channels and two subwoofer outputs support a 2.2-channel system for music and television sound.

Three of the six HDMI inputs support 8K / 60 Hz and 4K / 120 Hz video. The ARC/eARC HDMI output connects to a compatible television; TV audio must be set to stereo PCM. Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and other HDR video formats are supported.

HEOS, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect and internet radio provide network music playback. The current manual also lists Roon Ready, TIDAL Connect and Qobuz Connect; these functions may require a firmware update and a service account.

The MM phono input accepts a turntable, while the front USB port plays files from a flash drive. The rear USB port supplies power only. The Zone2 line output sends audio to another room, where an additional amplifier or active speakers are required.
