Denon AVP-8000

At $3,500, it was a flagship home-theater controller built around Zoran and Motorola DSP chips, according to HiFI-Stereo (October 1995, p.85). That is about all anyone has on record, and it all comes from that one period source. There are no detailed specifications, no production run dates, and no service manual in common circulation.

• Type: AV tuner/preamplifier with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital AC-3
• Certification: THX-certified (first such tuner/preamp)
• DSP: Zoran and Motorola chips
• Price (new): $3,500
