Wolfson 192 KHZ/24-BIT Dacs For ALL Channels

TX-NR5000E

OVER 50 YEARS OF ENGINEERING ACCLAIM

IS JUST THE STARTING POINT

ONKYO challenged its engineers to do the seemingly impossible, reinvent the flagship receiver concept–and don’t leave anything out. The result is the merging of science and design that represents our greatest technological accomplishment. Now, learn about what makes this the most technologically advanced home cinema centrepiece on the market.

WOLFSON 192 KHZ/24-BIT DACS

FOR ALL CHANNELS

If you want the best perform- ance possible from DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD and whatever other high-resolution formats the future has in store, you’ll want these ultraprecise con- verters. Widely recognized as

one of the industry’s best, these sophisticated digital-to- audio converters from Wolfson process more information faster, deliver an impressive dynamic range, and are virtually jitter-free.

have a stable reference point and not be able to reproduce the signal from the input source accurately. The WRAT design in the TX-NR5000E solves this problem with a component and PCB layout that are carefully designed so that the earth circuit branches form closed loops, and are all connected to a common point. This prevents spurious current flow between different ground points, and effectively eliminates fluctuations in ground potential.

WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology)

This ONKYO exclusive provides a movie cinema-like impact and sound purity that conventional receivers can’t match by offering you three distinct advantages:

Low Negative Feedback Design: Most amplifiers return part of the output signal to the amplifier input via a negative feedback (NFB) that has a gain characteristic. If the amount of NFB is large, the amount of counter- electromagnetic force that reaches the amplifier from the speaker will be great, and will disrupt the drive mechanisms and adversely affect its transient response. To avoid this, our engineers reduced the amount of NFB by improving the open-loop frequency response

of the amplifier which results in low distortion across the entire frequency range.

Elimination of Ground-Potential Fluctuations: The signal amplitude at any point in the circuit is the difference in potential between the signal level and its associated ground level. If the ground potential fluctuates, even minutely, due to the presence of electrical noise, the amplifier will not

High Instantaneous Current Capability (HICC): Typical audio signals are extremely complex, and consist of a wide range of frequencies and amplitude levels. As you would expect from a leader in amplifier design, ONKYO’s WRAT amplifiers provide better speaker control capacity and power output than conventional amplifiers.
