Dolby Volume featured on H/K AVR 7550HD and Arcam FMJ AVR600
Dolby's homegrown volume controlling technology has wiggled into a few HDTVs here and there, but now the tech is finally maneuvering into devices that HT amateurs / professionals will end up seeing. At CEDIA, Dolby is announcing that it's Dolby Volume will be featured in the all new Harman Kardon AVR 7550HD and Arcam FMJ AVR600. For those that forgot, Dolby Volume is an approach to "delivering consistent volume levels across a wide variety of content, channel programming, or input sources," giving users fed up with those astonishingly loud MHDPalladia commercials a better, more lawful way to deal. Whole release is after the cut.

Denver, September 3, 2008-At CEDIA, Dolby Laboratories, Inc. (NYSE: DLB) will showcase two new audio/video receivers that feature Dolby® Volume: the Harman Kardon AVR 7550HD and the Arcam FMJ AVR600.

Dolby TrueHD lossless audio delivers a studio master listening experience and Dolby Digital Plus brings exceptional audio performance in home entertainment systems on up to 7.1 channels.
"Today more than 50 audio systems and 29 Blu-ray players from 14 companies support Dolby TrueHD and/or Dolby Digital Plus, and we're building on that momentum with Dolby Volume," said Craig Eggers, Senior Marketing Manager, Dolby Laboratories. "Dolby Volume gives people more control over the listening experience so they can get more enjoyment from their home entertainment systems."
