The compact DMR 40 digital media receiver lets users revel in a surround sound experience using just two, compact bookshelf speakers, thanks to Dolby® Virtual Speaker technology.

　　Capable of a variety of sources, including DVDs, CDs, MP3, WMA, MPEG-4, DivX Ultra and Xvid, this compact 2.0-channel Dolby Virtual Speaker receiver delivers a healthy 60 watts of power to each speaker. When in stand by, the DMR 40’s green credentials are assured by a standby power mode consumption of less than a watt.

　　DVD users also get the upscaling up to full HD video resolution, enhancing standard DVD-quality on modern flatscreens. An HDMI output passes digital signals to a TV or projector, while component video and S-video outputs also feed to the TV. To partner the DMR 40, we’ve come up with a new bookshelf speaker dubbed the S 404. It’s a great-sounding 2-way design finished in a high gloss black and constructed from high-grade MDF. Like all our digital media receivers, the DMR 40 features a dedicated subwoofer output.
