Building on the multiple award-winning D-M40DAB, the D-M41DAB features improved sound, style, and better equipment. The developed discrete amplifier circuit reduces signal paths for enhanced clarity and impact. At the same time, the Bluetooth function adds convenience. To minimize sound interference from other sources, this feature can also be turned off. The appealing design is reminiscent of the HiFi flagship models from Denon's NE series. In addition to two digital optical inputs for connecting a TV, set-top box, or other digital devices, the RCD-M41DAB includes a built-in CD player and an FM/DAB/DAB+ radio. The performance of the CD receiver is complemented by the SC-M41 speakers, developed with European sound technology.

In an audio component where various circuits, boards, and cable routing can influence each other, it is impossible to create satisfactory conditions or pleasant sound simply by amplifying the power amplifier circuit. Therefore, Denon has eliminated three noise sources to ensure the sound is as clear as possible: distortions from the input selector, electronic volume control, and the power amplifier have been suppressed to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and produce an even more dynamic sound.

For immediate wireless connectivity with smartphones, tablets, and computers, Bluetooth has been integrated into the system alongside several other input options to provide optimal flexibility. The Bluetooth function is also equipped with an on/off switch for quick access to the convenient wireless connection when needed. Thus, when Bluetooth is not in use, the sound from other sources, such as CD, DAB/DAB+, FM, or the digital input, is also improved.
