4 Home Theater Components
Expanding what's possible with high-definition media, Onkyo brings you scintillating home entertainment like you've
never experienced before. Our range of second-generation high-definition A/V receivers takes the experience even
further with some of the most acclaimed home theater features out there. Whatever the source—including Blu-ray
Disc and DVD video, HD broadcasting, gaming, and studio master-quality surround-sound movie soundtracks and
music—this line-up has it covered. For high-definition 1080p video and studio master-quality surround-sound
formats—such as Dolby ® TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio
amplification power, precision processing,
and smart technological application.
HDMI is the conduit through which the receivers in Onkyo's 2008 range receive and
distribute high-definition video and audio. Every A/V receiver in the line-up handles a pure, all-
digital 1080p video signal through one HDMI connection. Also, almost all of our receivers
equipped with the latest version of HDMI can process studio master-quality multichannel
audio from Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio.This version of HDMI also enables CEC
(Consumer Electronics Control), greater bandwidth, Deep Color
high frame rates. Within the 2008 range, you can find receivers with up to five HDMI inputs,
and even dual output for connection to a flat-panel display and a 1080p video projector.
To ensure that all mid-range and high-end A/V receivers in the 2008 line-up meet THX's comprehensive
performance standards,THX engineers spend countless hours testing and analyzing sound quality, usability, and
interoperability for each model.This enduring relationship between Onkyo and THX guarantees even greater
reliability and quality from certified A/V receivers.The 2008 range features two new THX standards:THX
Plus ™ and THX ® Select2 Plus ™ .These standards include THX
which enables home theater audiences to experience rich detail and ambient
sound in a surround mix at any volume level.
Renowned for enabling the most sophisticated video processing in home theater, the HQV
Reon-VX chip can be found onboard the TX-NR906 and TX-SR876. It provides the ultimate
support for standard-definition and high-definition deinterlacing; 1080p video scaling; filtering
of jaggies and artifacts; and the reduction of random, "mosquito" and
block (codec) noise. HQV Reon-VX also enables color region
enhancement and the rendering of more than one billion colors.
Standard chips process pixels in blocks,
creating unwanted artifacts.
The Faroudja name is synonymous with high-quality video processing.The Faroudja technologies incorporated into
our 2008 A/V receiver range give you the power to bring out the best from both high-definition and standard-
definition video content.The Faroudja DCDi Edge
scan signals and effectively eliminates video artifacts from HDTV images.The Faroudja DCDi Cinema
processor is a more sophisticated version that drastically reduces video noise without sacrificing image quality and
sharpness. Both processors can scale standard-definition
sources up to 1080i—and DCDi Cinema can additionally
upscale to 1080p—for output to HDTVs.
