Denon Eco Mode On Or Off

  • #1

Hi All,

I've had my AVR for almost half-dozen months and always been running it with eco fashion on, not really knowing what it does.

So.....what does it actually do? Someone on fb said it limits each channel 20amps, is this true, surly not.

Cheers
Mark

Oh dam, that could explain why I'm hearing so much from my heights!

Would I need to run Audessey again with eco off?

No, I don't think the Audyssey test tones would push the amps then much that they would run out of power. I think y'all would be fine to just switch it off and see how y'all go on.

The issue is that you reduce the receiver's headroom. There are times when a receiver would benefit from more power being fabricated available to its amplifiers even at lower volume levels. The aforementioned arguements raised against using impedance switching are applicable when discussing eco modes. The receiver's track voltage will be reduced starving information technology and your speakers of ability.

Most AV receivers become less than 40 watts per channel while powering all their channels. For an eco style to reduce power consumption past 50% so yous can say that yous've halved the power available and are now restricting your receiver to less than 20 watts per aqueduct.

If these modes weren't actually detrimental in any mode then why aren't the manufacturers using them as the default or just selling receivers that give you no option other than to use the eco setting?

I've listened to the video and he doesn't mention it but, but as a question, does the ECO mode

only

affect the internal ability amplifiers?

And then, for anyone using only pre outs and none of the internal ability amps, it makes no divergence with ECO ON? Potentially, though it would make no difference with it on or off!

Yes, it would cause any impact on external amps if using the pre outs. It is in fact suggested that yous engage the ECO fashion if using an external power amps and if simply using the AVR as a pre amp processor.

The integral amps onboard the AV are ordinarilly notwithstanding being powered even if using external distension and so ECO fashion would be appropriate in such a setup.

How-do-you-do Dante,
Deplorable to sound like I'one thousand doubting you lot. In giving up on Atmos, I'll exist going dorsum to v channel and won't be using whatsoever of the AVR'due south internal amps anymore.
In researching means to exercise this, I chanced upon some blokes at ASR discussing it. They claim that, with ECO mode on, information technology does alter the pre outs signal and moves clipping to around 0.5V.
This, of course, could exist utter rubbish they're talking! But I wondered what was the source of your information above that ECO way does not affect the pre outs please?
Thanks.

I'1000 no recruitment agent for Atmos and if it isn't rewarding you with anything you tin do without then why bother with trying to accomodate the boosted speakers?

There'southward no police force that says that people have to have an Atmos setup and in that location'southward all the same plenty of fun to be had from a more bones 5.1 or 7.1 setup :)

About of my opinions on the ECO mode come from Audioholics who are big protagonists for not engaging ECO mode.

Engaging the ECO mode while not actually using the internal amps simply restricts the power those amplification stages can describe and equally such volition decrease the feedback you'd then go via the pre outs. THe mode wouldn't straight effect the pre out signal though, just the feedback relative to the activity of the internal amps. On older AV receivers without a pre out mode this could improve the sound signal existence conveyed via the pre outs. It is basically the same reasoning behind the pre out style that ceases to power the internal amps if and when using all the pre outs.

There'south no constabulary that says that people have to accept an Atmos setup and there's still enough of fun to be had from a more than basic 5.1 or 7.1 setup :)

Thanks. I meant the advice, when using the AVR every bit a pre amp just, to engage ECO manner. Did the guys at Audioholics also recommend that? If yous see above, that'south what I'm request, if information technology leaves the pre amp outputs untouched and then it makes sense to engage it. If it lowers the level that clipping is introduced then it is potentially a bad thought.

I call up I read someone recite the reasoning here on AV forums somewhere?

Engaging the ECO mode while not really using the internal amps simply restricts the power those distension stages tin draw and as such will decrease the feedback yous'd then become via the pre outs. THe mode wouldn't straight effect the pre out indicate though, just the feedback relative to the activity of the internal amps. On older AV receivers without a pre out mode this could amend the audio signal being conveyed via the pre outs. Information technology is basically the aforementioned reasoning behind the pre out mode that ceases to power the internal amps if and when using all the pre outs.

You'd be just restricting the feedback and noise you lot'd be getting from the internal amps via the preouts by restricting the ability bachelor to the internal amps. THe newer DEnon and Marantz models with a pre amp mode negate the demand to do this though if using all the pre outs and none of the internal amps. THe new models simply don't power the internal amps if in pre amp mode. I'd not advise y'all do any of this if still using any of the internal amps.

THe issue was that you previously had no means by which to disengage the internal amps while using external amps. THe higher yous turned the volume then the higher the chances of the internal amps clipping and this feeding back into the pre amp output circuitry.
