With the Denon Remote App, users can now control their home entertainment with four separate screen modes that provide access to everything from audio tuning to networking and switching capabilities. For instance, one Remote App screen lets users control their Denon receiver's basic functions, including power on/off, volume, input selection, surround sound modes, etc. Other screens let users delve deeper into features and capabilities of their receiver and home theater system, from choosing multi-zone networking to content-streaming to tuner commands, radio station pre-sets, balancing the audio soundfield for specific room parameters and more.

Noted Jeff Talmadge, Director, Product Development & Systems Integration, Denon Electronics: "As we celebrate our 100th Anniversary, Denon is more committed than ever to improving the entertainment experience and making it easier and more efficient for our customers to enjoy all the benefits of their electronics gear. Maximum compatibility with all of today's home entertainment content and source components is a top priority in all our receivers, including the iPhone, iPad and iPod. With our new Denon Remote App on our 'Network 11' receiver series, Apple touchscreen devices become an integral part of a Denon receiver owner's entertainment experience."
