About The Denon DHT-S517 Soundbar System
Built by the market leader in AV receivers, the Denon DHT-S517 sound bar with Dolby Atmos transforms any TV into a home entertainment centre. The Denon DHT-S517 utilizes a powerful 7-driver array, comprised of left/right channel tweeters and midrange drivers, a dedicated centre-channel, plus two up-firing speakers. Working together with the wireless subwoofer, this configuration delivers unmatched clarity, dynamics and cinematic dimensionality. Entertainment enthusiasts will appreciate a thrilling, lifelike Dolby Atmos 3D listening experience that includes an expansive soundstage, authoritative bass and startlingly clear dialogue perfect for the latest music, movies and games.
"While TV manufactures have developed thinner and thinner screens with high resolution and great picture quality, space for speakers has notably diminished, resulting in a sacrificed sound experience," said Denon President, Trip Randall. "With our newest Denon sound bar, you'll immediately boost your home theatre experience to upgraded 3D sound and will find your viewing experience makes exponential leaps forward for the better. It takes a legacy brand like Denon to deliver this kind of spectacular, immersive sound, all with an easy-to-use set-up that is compatible with any TV."

Enjoy enhanced bass, crystal clear dialogue, and enveloping sound from this 3.1.2 soundbar configuration.
Universal Compatibility with eARC: The DHT-S517 works with all TVs. Use the included HDMI cable to send audio from your smart TV and other connected sources to the sound bar via HDMI Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC). Once connected via the HDMI eARC or ARC connection, you can seamlessly control the soundbar volume with your TV remote. Older, non-HDMI ARC TVs can connect via the digital optical input using the supplied optical lead.
Wireless Music Streaming: The Denon DHT-S517 soundbar system is the ultimate home entertainment hub, providing wireless access to favourite content via Bluetooth connectivity to any smart device. Access millions of tracks, podcasts and other programs with the richness and clarity only available from Denon.
Easy Setup & Use: With all cables in the box, a Quick Start Guide, and a straightforward user concept, the DHT-S517 is easy to install and use. The sound bar can be either controlled by the supplied remote or works automatically with most TV remotes directly or via HDMI control.
Enjoy Clearer Dialogue: Denon's Dialogue Enhancer on the DHT-S517 improves the intelligibility of spoken content that is vital to movies, news, sports and other entertainment. This feature allows users to enjoy refined clarity with three available modes and a dedicated level control for dialogue that is independent of overall system volume.
High-Performance Build Quality: The DHT-S517 is equipped with a left and right midrange and tweeters, a dedicated centre channel, plus two up-firing speakers. Together with the wireless subwoofer, this adds up to a powerful 3.1.2 speaker configuration.
Sound Modes & Superior Performance from Denon: The Denon DHT-S517 offers multiple sound modes tailored for any occasion: Movie Mode, Music Mode, Pure Mode and Night Mode. If you're after the very best sound for music then selecting Pure Mode eliminates all surround processing and other adjusted characteristics associated with Movie, Music, or Night modes to deliver the purest listening experience that enthusiasts have come to expect from Denon.
