Dolby Atmos

Feel every dimension in Dolby Atmos. Upgrade your home theatre with height speakers to unleash a fully immersive 3D audio experience from Dolby Atmos content. Dolby Surround upmixer engages all speakers to create 3D audio sensation from legacy content. Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization Technology creates the sensation of overhead sound even without height speakers. You can also enjoy Dolby Atmos music tracks available from Apple Music, Amazon HD and TIDAL and a compatible streaming device.

What Power Does The Denon AVR-X2900H Have?

With 95 watts per channel of clean amplification, the AVR-X2900H drives speakers with control and confidence, keeping dialogue clear at any volume level while effects and music retain impact and detail. Dynamic scenes feel balanced rather than strained, and quieter moments remain clear and nuanced. The result is a more immersive listening experience across films, music and games, where sound feels natural, enveloping and consistently engaging.

As surround systems grow, maintaining consistent power across speakers becomes critical to preserving balance and impact. Denon’s 70% Power Guarantee means our AVRs deliver over 70% of rated output to up to five channels simultaneously, helping dialogue stay clear, effects remain controlled and dynamics feel natural as your system expands beyond stereo into multichannel surround.

3D Audio & DTS:X

Lose yourself in breathtaking 360-degree sound with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Experience immersive audio that surrounds you from every direction, drawing you deeper into films, music and games. Transform everyday entertainment into a cinematic experience.

DTS:X immersive audio content places sound where it would naturally occur in space, creating lifelike, multi-dimensional audio. DTS Neural:X upmixer offers improved immersion and heightened realism for legacy content. DTS Virtual:X provides immersive audio without height channels, creating virtual height effects in a 7.1, 5.1, or 2.1 speaker setup.

Support For High Definition Picture

The AVR-X2900H supports modern 4K and 8K video formats for films, programmes and games, with Dolby Vision technology for rich colour, contrast and detail. For HD sources such as non-Ultra HD Blu-ray discs, built-in upscaling enhances detail and clarity when viewed on today’s higher-resolution TVs. Upscaled video is optimised for both 4K and 8K displays, helping legacy content look sharper and more refined while preserving the richness, colour and contrast of high-definition media.

Enjoy a more intuitive way to bring all your entertainment together. With your TV, gaming consoles and streaming sources connected through a single 4K/8K-ready hub, everything works as part of one cohesive setup. Advanced HDMI connectivity supports high-resolution video and fast-moving visuals while streamlining connections, making setup straightforward and everyday use effortless.

Brilliant Colour From HDR 10+: Supports HDR (High Dynamic Range), HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma), as well as Dynamic HDR and HDR10+ pass-through. HLG offers HDR technology over broadcast content. Both Dynamic HDR and HDR10+ use dynamic metadata to optimize shadows and highlights as screens change.

Multi-Room With HEOS

Great sound doesn’t stop at your TV. With HEOS, your AVR becomes the first zone in a flexible multiroom system, letting you stream music, TV audio, sports, podcasts, and other content to components Powered by HEOS throughout your home. Play the same song everywhere or choose different music for different spaces, all controlled from the HEOS app. It’s an easy way to grow from one room into a fully connected listening experience.

Audyssey Room Correction

Every room affects sound differently. The AVR-X2900H includes Audyssey room correction tools, featuring MultEQ XT, Dynamic EQ and Dynamic Volume, to align speaker levels, timing and balance for your space. Using the included microphone, Audyssey measures each speaker and optimises system response, delivering clear dialogue, cohesive surround sound and well-balanced effects. For expanded control, the AVR-X2900H supports an optional upgrade to Dirac Live Room Correction.

Stream Your Way With WiFi & Bluetooth

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity support flexible streaming from your everyday devices. Bluetooth headphone support enables private listening for late-night movies or shared spaces, with onboard output level adjustment for fine-tuning volume even on headphones without their own controls.

Airplay 2: Use AirPlay 2 to stream Apple music wirelessly to the AV receiver, or group with other AirPlay compatible speakers to fill your home with music.

HEOS Remote App: This iOS or Android control app allows you to turn the receiver on and off, select an input source, adjust volume level, and browse music from your phone.

Why Choose The Denon AVR-X2900H Receiver?

With the arrival of the very competitive Sony STR-AN1000, Denon needed to up their game. Did they do it? We think so. Now you can add the Dirac Live Room Correction, not completely included, but if that is a feature you want, you can have it. Also offering 1440p video pass-through and AMD FreeSync for better PC gaming support. We are also very impressed with the connections to this new model, giving you more options for streaming. Keeping at a very competitive price, this model is not one to be missed.
