Adding Network Prowess to Awesome Mid-Range Functionality

As the first—and most affordable—of Onkyo’s new-season network-capable A/V receivers, the TX-NR708 brings the audio goldmine of internet radio to your living room. Now you can kick back on the sofa and surf all your favorite channels in superior fidelity.With seven HDMI® 1.4a inputs, the TX-NR708 offers copious connection possibilities, as well as 3D video compatibility. For your convenience, one of the HDMI inputs is located on the front panel, along with a USB input for flash memory devices and iPod® models. If you want to connect a non-HDMI multichannel component—say, a legacy SACD or DVD player—the TX-NR708 sports a full complement of 7.1-channel analog inputs.The Onkyo name connotes serious audio quality, so it’s no surprise to find low-jitter Burr-Brown DACs and sophisticated Audyssey MultEQ® room-correction onboard, along with lossless HD audio formats and the expansive surround dimensions of Audyssey DSX™ and Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz.All of this processing and connectivity power receives the coveted THX® Select2 Plus™ stamp of approval.

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

The seven HDMI 1.4a inputs on the TX-NR708 let you simultaneously connect high-def sources such as a Blu-ray player, a gaming console, and a cable/satellite tuner. A single output then sends a pristine signal to your connected high-resolution display. As the latest version of this connector, HDMI 1.4a adds the exciting possibilities of 3D video and an Audio Return Channel. 3D video is the next big thing in home entertainment, with movie, game, and broadcast content on the increase and 3D-compatible TVs entering the market.The TX-NR708 also offers the convenience of an Audio Return Channel via HDMI. Audio content received directly by your HDTV’s tuner can be sent “upstream” to your A/V receiver, without the need for a separate S/PDIF audio cable.

Audyssey DSX™ and Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz Add New Dimensions to Surround Sound

The TX-NR708 handles two new surround-sound technologies from Audyssey and Dolby that offer exciting new ways to set up the speakers in your home theater 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-NR708’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 theater experience.

THX® Select2 Plus™ Certified

THX Select2 Plus certification is specified for rooms where the screen- to-seat viewing distance is 10 to 12 feet and the room volume is around 2000 cubic feet.To achieve THX Select2 Plus certification, the TX-NR708 had to meet the world’s most demanding standards for home theater audio quality and performance, and play at reference volume levels with minimal distortion.
