The Fully-Equipped 6.1-Channel Receiver for Your Entry Into the World of Home Theater

Onkyo has redefined how you will forever look at an entry level home theater receiver with the TX-SR501. Those new to home theater will breathe a sigh of relief due to the user-friendly design which incorporates color-coded inputs and outputs, a logically laid-out front panel and an easy-to-use remote control. Those looking to upgrade their current home theater receiver will be impressed with 6.1-channels giving you the all enveloping surround sound of Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES combined with Onkyo exclusives like WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology) and CinemaFILTER to yield the smoothest sound at any volume.

6.1-Channel Format Capability

Step up to the world of truly 360˚ home theater with Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES decoding. Dolby Digital EX creates six-full-bandwidth output channels from 5.1-channel sources. DTS-ES offers the world’s only discrete 6.1-channel extended surround technology for home theater. Both give a more spacious listening zone to bring your movies to unprecedented levels of realism.

High Current Power Supply (H.C.P.S.) Transformer

Your receiver is the center of your home theater system and now you will find the High Current Power Supply (H.C.P.S.) transformer at the heart of our receivers. This redesigned transformer will give you the sonic muscle you need to drive today’s multichannel digital sources, and reproduce soundtracks with crystal-clear realism and seat-riveting impact.

HDTV Capable Component Video Inputs and Output

The future of home entertainment is high-definition and the TX-SR501 is ready to give you the highest quality, unaltered, wide-bandwidth video transfer from a DVD player, DSS, HDTV set-up box, or digital VCR and out to HDTVs, additional monitors, or projectors.

Crossover Adjustment for Bass Management

Previously crossover frequency was fixed at 80 Hz. With Crossover Adjustment, you can set the frequency at 60/80/100/120 or 150 Hz depending on your speaker’s bass playback ability. This lets you more accurately match the performance characteristics of the subwoofer to your front speakers.

Absolute Ground Plate and Bus Bars

Formerly only found in our higher range of receivers, the Absolute Ground Plate and bus bars diminish fluctuations in the electrical potential and eliminate ground hum for more efficient power distribution, reduced noise, and crisper sound.

Color-Coded Inputs and Outputs

Onkyo’s commitment to bringing the most user-friendly designed products to market further manifests itself with color-coded inputs and outputs. Now you’ll no longer have worries about which cable goes to which input or output. Simply attach the color-coded label to the appropriate cable, and attach the cable to the same colored input or output for fast and easy connection.
