Product Description

The DRA-697CIHD receiver will shine as the core to your high end Hi-Fi stereo multi-room audio system. Equipped with many new features including HD Radio, it can handle almost any configuration combination. Its two source three zone capability allows you to run multiple sources to multiple areas at the same time with pure clean sound. With the HD tuner as a second tuner source, regular AM/FM can be listened to in one zone and HD Radio can be listened to in another zone. Being 4 ohms stable, it can handle the most demanding speakers, yet deliver smooth fidelity. Custom integration is no problem either as this enhance receiver has all the connections an installer needs to integrate to third party control systems.

This review is from: Denon DRA-697CIHD Premier AM/FM Stereo Multi-Source/Multi-Zone Stereo Receiver with HD Radio (Electronics)

It works. I have not used all the advanced features such as connecting with speakers in far flung rooms but the ability to get alernative HD stations means I can hear what I want to hear when I want it instead of being limited to the limited programming of the analog mainstream. For example, when my local Public Radio is filled with talk, I can choose its classical music stream and play it on my main speakers. I do not have to stream it on the computer where the speakers are puny.
