HT-S990THX specifications

The Onkyo HT-S990THX is a powerful home theater system specifically designed for audiophiles seeking an immersive audio-visual experience. This sophisticated system embodies cutting-edge technology, ensuring that both music and movies are delivered in high fidelity.

At the heart of the HT-S990THX is its 7.1-channel receiver, which offers an impressive total output of up to 130 watts per channel. This allows for the reproduction of dynamic and detailed sound, making every cinematic experience feel more lifelike. The system supports various surround sound formats, including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, which add a vertical dimension to audio, enveloping listeners in three-dimensional soundscapes. This is particularly advantageous in action-packed films or when experiencing finely engineered soundtracks.

The system includes a robust set of speakers designed to work in harmony with the receiver. The surround sound speaker package features a sleek subwoofer and compact satellite speakers that deliver crystal-clear highs and thundering lows. The subwoofer, in particular, enhances the overall audio experience with deep, rich bass that can be felt as much as it is heard.

One of the prominent features of the Onkyo HT-S990THX is its Audyssey room calibration technology. This advanced tool analyzes the room acoustics and automatically adjusts the speaker settings to create an optimal sound environment. As a result, users can expect consistent, high-quality audio regardless of the room's shape or size.

Furthermore, the HT-S990THX comes equipped with multiple HDMI inputs that support 4K video pass-through and HDCP 2.2, ensuring compatibility with the latest streaming services and gaming consoles. This means that users can enjoy stunning visuals alongside the exceptional audio provided by the system.

Wi-Fi connectivity and access to streaming services are also part of the package. Users can easily connect their smartphones and tablet devices via Bluetooth or use the built-in Chromecast feature to stream music directly.

In conclusion, the Onkyo HT-S990THX is a comprehensive home theater solution that combines powerful performance with high-quality audio technologies. Its ability to adapt to any room and integrate seamlessly with modern media devices makes it an exceptional choice for anyone looking to elevate their home entertainment experience.
