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

The TX-NR808 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.

Dolby Pro Logic IIz provides a similar front- height speaker option that likewise works to create a more enveloping home cinema experience.
