Evolution of a winner
Denon have a distinguished history of producing award-winning AV receivers, with the company itself dating right back to 1910. The AVR-X2900HDAB is the latest in a long line of premium AVRs and perfectly balances sound quality with features. Utilising 95 watts of power, across seven channels, it’s ideal for cinematic Dolby Atmos and DTS:X formats. Multiroom streaming, powered by HEOS makes it more than an AV receiver; it’s the heart of your home music system, too. With Audyssey built-in and now the option of Dirac Live Room Correction, it’s easy to get optimal sound in your space.
Experience the immersion of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X
For the most cinematic sound, this Denon can be configured in a 5.2.2 format, which includes two ceiling or up-firing speakers. Dolby Atmos and DTS:X use these ceiling or up-firing speakers for three-dimensional and fully immersive sound. Whether it’s rain falling in a tropical jungle, the intense sound of gunfire, or an overhead aircraft, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X put you at the heart of the action. For less complex systems, Dolby Surround and DTS Neural:X processing are also onboard.
Optimal bass
Featuring directional subwoofer mode, you can fine-tune the bass for a more smoothly integrated response. There are also two subwoofer outputs, letting you split the signal across two subs for a more even response.
Supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+
The AVR-X2900H DAB supports a wide range of High Dynamic Range video formats, including Dolby Vision and HDR10+. With pass-through support for both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision formats, you’re all set for the best results from all streaming services (Dolby Vision is used by Disney Plus and Netflix, while HDR10+ is used by Amazon Prime Video).
Supercharge your gaming
With its comprehensive HDMI interface, this Denon AV amp is ideal for gaming. There’s support for 4K/120Hz and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), giving you the best resolution and clarity. Quick Frame Transport (QFT) and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) help eliminate lag and frame tearing, giving you a smoother, more responsive gaming experience.
Music streaming, powered by HEOS
Streaming music via the AVR-X2900H DAB is simple with the free HEOS app. This user-friendly app uses three main tabs that feature at all times - Rooms, Music and Now Playing. You can listen to the same music in every room or different music in different rooms. The app also lets you group HEOS compatible devices such as soundbars and AV devices, for totally connected home audio.
HEOS – a complete ecosystem
The HEOS multiroom ecosystem lets you seamlessly configure up to 64 zones of sound – enough for even the largest mansions. Start with this AV amp and then build up a multiroom system to your exact requirements. With many hi-fi and home cinema amplifiers also featuring HEOS built in, it’s even easier to incorporate your entire home entertainment system into the HEOS family.
Stream your way – AirPlay 2, Roon Ready and Bluetooth
As well as the HEOS app, you can also choose to stream via other platforms. With AirPlay 2, this Denon AV amp makes an excellent choice for Apple users. As a Roon Ready device, the AVR-2900H DAB can also be configured within a multi-brand, multiroom high-resolution Roon system. For quick and easy device pairing, there’s also Bluetooth onboard.
Acoustic room correction by Dirac Live* or Audyssey
Thanks to state-of-the-art digital room correction from Dirac, the AVR-X2900H DAB offers pro-level room optimisation. Dirac Live Room Correction uses a USB microphone (not included) and dedicated PC software to take multiple readings around your room and feed the information back to the amplifier for a completely bespoke response (professional set-up recommended).
*Dirac Live requires additional payment.
Audyssey MultEQ XT for optimised set-up
Featuring Audyssey's MultEQ XT technology, the AVR-X2900H DAB adapts itself to your room's acoustics. Use the supplied Audyssey measuring microphone and the system tunes the AV receiver to provide the smoothest, most optimal overall listening experience for your room. If you want to take this even further, purchase the MultEQ Editor App (at additional cost) and you've access to advanced user settings.
Connect it all – from turntable to TV
With six HDMI inputs (three 8K, three 4K), the Denon has you covered for connecting all your video and gaming devices. A coaxial and two optical digital inputs are ideal for connecting older devices or upgrading the sound from a compatible CD/Network player. Four analogue inputs are perfect for hi-fi components, plus there’s a further, dedicated MM phono input for plugging in a turntable.
DAB radio built-in
As well as the widest range of home cinema options, this Denon AVR also features a DAB radio. Perfect for when you just want some background music, DAB (digital) radio offers a wide range of stations, including the popular BBC 6 Music and 4 Extra.
Improved button layout
Subtle revisions to the AVR’s facia means that the main function buttons are now angled upwards. This makes it easier to find the buttons, enhancing the user experience.
Quick Selects for the perfect sound – instantly
With such user flexibility, getting the perfect sound can be a complex business. For this reason, Denon has fitted the AVR-X2900H DAB with four Quick Select audio presets. Take your time in setting the ideal sound balance for your TV, Blu-ray, games console and music source and recall them at the touch of a button for the ideal sound, instantly.
Experience the cinematic sound that your TV deserves, with the Denon AVR-X2900H DAB.
”If you're short on space and cash, the Wharfedale DX-3 HCP remains the surround sound package to get.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2025 award-winner.
Award-winning heritage
Following on from the DX-2, perhaps the most highly reviewed speaker package in its category, the DX-3 has an unbeatable heritage of excellence. The winning form continues with the latest speakers, which are closely related to Wharfedale’s equally renowned Diamond 12 series. With such a blend of talent in the mix, it’s little wonder that the Wharfedale DX-3 sounds so impressive.
Full-range satellite speakers for dynamic sound
Based on Wharfedale’s Diamond 12 series technology, the four satellite speakers deliver a much fuller and more rounded sound than most satellite designs. Although slightly larger than some, the benefit to sound quality is huge. All four speakers are a two-way design with dedicated silk dome tweeter and woven polypropylene woofer. Along with the rigid cabinets, it’s these drivers that produce the precise, dynamic sound that’s perfect for delivering immersive soundtracks and special effects around your room.
Dedicated centre speaker delivers vocal clarity
Designed specifically for the purpose, the DX-3’s centre speaker utilises an aperiodic layout for the clearest vocals. The horizontal format speaker uses twin woofers, giving you a broad spread of sound between the front speakers, without ‘gaps’ in the sound stage. The design also helps tie the sound to the screen, especially when used with a large screen TV or projector.
Powerful bass response
For that edge-of-seat, cinematic thrill, a powerful bass response is a must, and that’s exactly what the DX-3’s subwoofer provides. With its 8” cone and 75 watt active amplifier, it masters every bass scenario with ease. From an energetic soundtrack to a stadium rock concert, the bass is always there to be felt as well as heard. Auto on/off means that you can place the subwoofer out of sight, without having to reach the controls. Phase inversion lets you position the subwoofer behind you, if needed.
Choice of finish
Available in Black oak or Walnut finishes, the DX-3 speaker pack makes a great match for a wide range of decors. Should you choose to upgrade any of the speakers, such as swapping the front speakers for floorstanders, you’ll find the finishes and aesthetics tie in well with Wharfedale’s other speaker ranges.
For a home cinema speaker package that sparkles with talent, take a listen to the Wharfedale DX-3.
