The Easy Way to Enjoy Home Networking and Distributed Audio

The TX-NR1008 is an upper-mid-range A/V powerhouse designed to give you maximum set-up flexibility in the home. Its 9.2 speaker channels let you enjoy a multichannel source in your main room, plus powered audio in two other rooms. Or you can use the extra channels to take full advantage of the new surround dimensions of Audyssey DSXand Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz. Other processing highlights include DTS-HD Master Audioand Dolby® TrueHD for pristine lossless audio on Blu-ray Disc, and HDMI® upscaling of all video sources to 1080p with Faroudja DCDi Cinema.As a network A/V receiver compatible with Windows® 7 and DLNA, the TX-NR1008 lets you stream audio from your PC or from internet radio channels such as vTuner and Last.fm. Set up and calibration are easy and accurate, thanks to ISF video calibration, a new overlaid graphical on-screen display, and Audyssey room correction and equalization. Bi-amping capability and a smorgasbord of the latest connections complete what is an outstanding entertainment package.

HDMI® 1.4a Support for 3D Video and Audio Return Channel

The seven HDMI 1.4a inputs on the TX-NR1008 let you simultaneously connect high-def sources such as a Blu-ray player, a gaming console, and a cable/satellite tuner. And the two HDMI outputs let you send a pristine signal at the same time to two different high-resolution displays.

Audyssey DSXand Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz Add New Dimensions to Surround Sound

The TX-NR1008 handles two new surround-sound technologies from Audyssey and Dolby that offer exciting new ways to set up the speakers in your home cinema system. Audyssey DSX lets you incorporate “front wide” speakers, in place of the usual surround back speakers, to expand the width of the soundstage. Set up at a recommended 60° off center, these channels help to produce a more realistic soundstage and a more immersive listening experience. Alternatively, Audyssey DSX can reconfigure the TX-NR1008’s surround back channels to deliver “front height” channels.These channels carry ambient, non-directional audio that adds a new vertical dimension to your movies and games. Dolby Pro Logic IIz provides a similar front-height speaker option that likewise works to create a more enveloping home cinema experience.

THX® Select2 PlusCertified

THX Select2 Plus certification is specified for rooms where the screen- to-seat viewing distance is 3 to 4 meters and the room volume is around 56 cubic meters.To achieve THX Select2 Plus certification, the TX-NR1008 had to meet the world’s most demanding standards for home cinema audio quality and performance, and play at reference volume levels with minimal distortion.
