expensive and strict
The front side of the AVR-X1400H looks like a top manager's business suit — expensive, strict and outwardly simple. On the front panel, there are a minimum of buttons and two massive handles for switching the volume and source signal. Between them is a large LCD display, HDMI, USB ports, a headphone output and a 3.5 audio output for connecting a calibration microphone.
Sound that pays attention to detail
The basis of the AVR-X1400H is a seven-channel path with a power of 80 W per channel. Compared to previous Denon models, the X1400H features a more modern Asahi Kasei 4490EQ DAC, which provides higher conversion accuracy and extended dynamic range. The sound of this receiver is legible and balanced, with careful attention to detail and panorama. Although, in the case of heavy music and tense scenes in which 25 transformers beat each other, the sound lacks pressure.
Smart frequency balance correction
In cases where something does not sound right, changing sound profiles in Audyssey MultEQ comes to the rescue. He also plays the role of a frequency balance corrector for the room and pleasantly surprises with quickness. Usually, for more or less fine tuning, it is enough for him to catch 3-4 positions of the microphone, it is not necessary to carry it around the room. The setup wizard itself is made accessible and understandable, even a child will understand.
Supported by Dolby Atmos and HDR
The equipment of the 1400 is modest and no frills: 5 rear HDMI inputs and one output. Plus an Ethernet port, 2 optical inputs, 2 composite inputs, 2 pairs of RCAs and one coaxial S/P-DIF. In terms of functional support, the AVR-X1400H will be relevant for more than one more year, as it supports both multi-channel Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, and 4K and HDR video.
Compressed MP3 Revitalization
Interestingly, the USB port catches audio not only from a flash drive or external hard drive, but also directly from a smartphone or player. Both MP3/WMA and WAV/FLAC are recognized with sampling rates up to 192 kHz. For compressed MP3s, there is a Restore function that restores data lost during compression. Bluetooth supported.
