AVR-891

AV Surround Receiver

A/V Home Theater Receiver with 3D Video Connectivity

Equipped with a host of high tech features, the AVR-891 is one of the first A/V receivers to include the latest HDMI 1.4a functionality, which provides 3D pass-through (Broadcast and Blu-ray) capability, for compatibility with advanced 3D HDTVs and 3D Blu-ray discs, and also includes Audio Return Channel. It also features the latest high resolution audio decoders, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS- HD Master Audio, and includes Dolby Pro Logic IIz decoding, which provides front channel height effects for a dramatically expanded front soundstage. The 7 channel amplifier section features discrete component technology, each rated at a powerful 135 watts. The video processor provides upconversion to high definition HDMI, and includes precision picture adjustments, such as brightness, contrast, color and tint, to name a few. Setup is a breeze thanks to Audyssey MultEQ automatic room correction.
