Highly Precise Onboard Digital-to-Analog Converters

Our high-end receivers use Burr-Brown 192 kHz/24-bit audio DACs (PCM1796) to achieve excellent dynamic performance and improve tolerance to clock jitter.The TX-SR705, one of our mid-range models, draws on the efficiency of Cirrus Logic DACs (CS4398) to handle the complexity of multichannel sound.

Texas Instruments Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Chips

An Onkyo A/V receiver incorporates up to three Aureus™ DSP chips in the audio processing chain.They support the latest and most innovative audio signal processing features and help create a richer listening experience.

Neural-THX®Surround Decoding Technology

Neural-THX Surround enables content to be

encoded into 5.1 or 7.1 channels and transmitted to an Onkyo A/V receiver, where it is decoded onboard.This technology reduces the bandwidth needed by broadcasters to deliver sound content

and enables 7.1-channel support for gaming and movies.
