Denon DRA-800H (Black)
Network Stereo Receiver
£479
”Denon's modern take on the classic stereo receiver was just downright fun—it made music so accessible that it encouraged many hours of happy use.” ’Sound & Vision’ – Top Pick.
Premium, stereo sound
If you’d like all the versatility and streaming options of an AV receiver but prefer to stick with stereo speakers, then this is receiver for you. Rather than offering multiple surround sound channels, the DRA-800H focuses on the best two-channel, stereo sound. The high-current, custom designed amp uses a discrete output for dynamic, low distortion sound. The power transformer has OFC (Oxygen-Free Copper) windings for smooth, effortless power.
High power output
With just two channels to concentrate on, the DRA-800H delivers a punchy 100 watts per channel. This is ample for all types of speakers, including low efficiency models. The DRA-800H also provides plenty of power for larger rooms and party-level music.
Listen in another room
Featuring speaker A/B outputs, the DRA-800H also lets you listen in another room or, if you have a large open-plan space, to fill the area with sound from four speakers. Alternatively, extend audio to another room via the zone 2 passive outputs – using a second amp or active speakers.
Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, DLNA and built-in wi-fi for the complete networking experience
With both Bluetooth and AirPlay 2 connectivity it's easy to connect all your smartphones, tablets and compatible lap/desktops and stream music wirelessly. The Denon also comes with wi-fi, Internet radio and DLNA. Simply connect to your home network via Ethernet or wi-fi and access thousands of Internet radio sites via vTuner as well as subscription services such as Spotify Connect Premium Spotify account required). DLNA compatibility lets you stream from other sources such as your laptop or NAS drive.
Voice control via Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri devices
Controlling a sophisticated receiver like this can be baffling for some members of the family, which is why Denon have made it compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri devices. Simply download the HEOS Home Entertainment Skill app and then just ask Alexa or the Google Assistant to perform basic functions. Using the Apple Home App, Siri voice control from your Apple iOS device brings added functionality over AirPlay 2 – including grouping devices.
HEOS built-in - for the finest multi-room audio
HEOS multi-room music systems connect together by dual-band Wi-Fi, making them easy to set up with your existing home network. Up to 32 HEOS units can be set up at one time, ensuring even the largest of homes are covered for multi-room music. With HEOS already built-in, the DRA-800H is ready to go as a single 'zone' without any further adaptors.
Control it all with the HEOS app
Once you've set up your HEOS speaker system, you can stream music effortlessly via the dedicated HEOS app. Available for Apple iOS, Android and Amazon Kindle, the app not only lets you stream your stored music but also Internet radio services and popular streaming services such as Spotify, Tidal, Napster and Deezer.
HDMI interface with support for HDR10, HLG and HDCP 2.3
Featuring a comprehensive HDMI interface, the DRA-800A is ideal for connecting your AV sources – such as Blu-ray player, games console and TV. The HDMI sockets support HDR10, HLG and HDCP 2.3, which means you can play UHD Blu-ray discs and stream UltraHD video in the highest quality.
Connect more – including a turntable
As well as five HDMI inputs, the Denon also has a wide range of other connectivity. Optical digital inputs are ideal for connecting older devices or upgrading the sound from a compatible CD/Network player. Two analogue inputs are perfect for Hi-Fi components, with the dedicated MM phono input ideal for plugging in a turntable.

Predictably excellent Service buying a Denon 800H
I needed to buy a replacement for my old Receiver. I found details of suitable products online then visited the Croydon store where Paul quickly and concisely advised me that a Denon DRA-800H fitted my requirement perfectly. As you would expect from Denon It combines traditional solid construction and high quality sound. As I hoped it has a wide range of connectivity for playing music including Bluetooth, USB, DLNA and Android/Apple apps.

Very pleased indeed
My amp at home had blown up. It was 40 years old and I knew repair was out of the question. Having bought other separates at Richer Sounds before and been satisfied I went to the Bromley branch and was served by Maurice. He took care to ask me about my present set-up, types of music to be played, etc, and recommended the Denon DRA-800H. I asked questions and received satisfactory answers, so decided to take the plunge. I got it home, set it up and was soon delighted with the clarity of sound, the balance between bass and treble, the ease of operation, the ability to make stereo sound more stereophonic than previously. I remain pleased and well satisfied. Cheers Maurice.

Denon Amplifier
This was recommended by Richer Sounds to cure a problem i was having with sound/vision synchronisation using a new TV and an old tuner/amplifier to power external speakers. The new amplifier solved the problem perfectly thanks to Howie from Richer sounds coming out to my home to sort it all out. I only use the Denon as an amplifier to power my Bose speakers. There are a lot more features that I don't need at the moment. All in all I was very pleased by Richer sounds both at the shop and at my home. Be assured you are now my go to shop if I need any more equipment for TV and other electrical equipment.

Fantastic amplifier & incredible customer service
The team at Richer Sounds Croydon have been incredible, from our first call to willing to come out to our bar and check what would work best for the space. The product was in stock ready for collection and then a very speedy set up and great communication.
The product is great value for money and I cannot fault the service we received. Would highly recommend.
