VLSC™ (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry)
Onkyo’s VLSC employs a unique digital-to-analog conversion circuit to mitigate the effects of signal noise. Data is converted between discrete sampling points, which are then joined with analog vectors in real-time to produce a continuous output wave form.The result—a noiseless, smooth analog signal based on the digital source.
Harnessing Power for Audio Performance
Onkyo's H.C.P.S. (High Current Power Supply) concept is based around power transformers with the capability to respond to the wide dynamics of home cinema. In the case of the TX-NR3008, a massive main transformer improves power efficiency and radiates very little noise into the surrounding circuitry, while two separate transformers cater specifically to audio and video processing.The TX-NR3008 also employs large, custom-designed transistors to drive the high currents that today’s home entertainment demands.
Tailor Multichannel Audio to Your Home with Audyssey and Dolby Technologies
The TX-NR3008 is equipped with MultEQ® XT32, Audyssey’s most powerful room-correction technology. MultEQ XT32 gathers frequency and time-domain measurements from up to 8 positions in the listening area, to deliver a clear, well-balanced, and natural sound.Two other Audyssey technologies, Dynamic EQ® and Dynamic Volume®, work to optimize frequency response and dynamic range at all volume levels. In a similar vein, Dolby® Volume performs independent loudness adjustments to different frequencies and channels to produce a listening experience that includes all the dynamics of the original mix at whatever volume you choose. It also offers the option of maintaining playback volume at the same user-chosen level across all input sources.
