Kenwood VR-2090
Dual Room A/V receiver with Dolby Digital, DTS, and AM/FM Tuner

Go ahead, stare. From the outside in, these new Kenwoods dazzle! They serve up cutting-edge home theater technology in a package that combines the best of classic elegance and modern functionality. For starters, you get not one but two kinds of 5.1-channel digital decoding: (1) Dolby Digital, for the hundreds of currently available Dolby Digital DVDs; and (2) DTS, a well-established multichannel format in movie theaters, but a relative newcomer in home theater. Just as exciting, Kenwood's remarkable LCD remote puts some serious power in your hands. You get the advantages of an on-screen graphical user interface, but without having to turn on your TV! Remote features include: multibrand A/V control; easy joystick navigation and selection; "future set" design (the remote is upgradable for future remote codes); plus CD title memory and direct access for discs loaded in your CD-2280M CD changer.
