Onkyo TX-SR876 A/V Receiver

Building on an Already Impressive High-Def Legacy with HQV Video Processing and ISF Video Calibration

Introduction

Based on a winning design for high-definition home theater reproduction, the TX-SR876 is a comprehensive A/V processing "hub" with a deep reservoir of amplification power to draw on. Reveling in its new THX Ultra2 Plus certification, the TX-SR876 shows its class with a broad range of capabilities, phenomenal performance, and noticeable finesse. With its advanced HQV Reon-VX video processing—which enables upscaling to high-def 1080p and supreme high-definition surround sound decoding—this receiver belongs in elite company. It's also one of the first receivers anywhere to employ ISF (Imaging Science Foundation) video calibration. From whatever movie, music, broadcast, or gaming source you choose, the TX-SR876 will impress time and time again.

Advanced Video Processing and 1080p Upscaling with HQV Reon-VX

HQV Reon-VX is the most sophisticated video-processing chip available for home theater. It provides the ultimate support for 1080p scaling; for filtering of jaggies and artifacts; and for the reduction of random, "mosquito" and block (codec) noise. HQV Reon-VX also enables color region enhancement and the rendering of more than one billion colors.

1080p Video and High-Def Surround Sound via HDMI™ (with Dual Output)

With the latest version of HDMI and advanced A/V processing capabilities, the TX-SR876 is a powerful control center for all high-definition media, including Blu-ray Disc and HD broadcasts. The TX-SR876 accepts up to four components via HDMI. Receiving and switching compatible sources, it can send a 1080p video signal through two outputs (Main or Sub). You have support for the two major high-definition surround-sound codecs—Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio™—to extract lossless, studio-master audio from Blu-ray Disc.

THX Ultra2 Plus Certified with New THX® Loudness Plus™ Technology

THX Ultra2 Plus certification ensures that the TX-SR876 can perform superbly in even the largest of rooms (for example, where the screen-to-seat viewing distance is greater than 4 meters, and the room size is approximately 85 cubic meters). Meanwhile, a new technology, THX Loudness Plus, improves the movie experience at lower volume levels. To counteract the loss or distortion of ambient and bass sounds at lower volumes, THX Loudness Plus automatically adjusts the front-to-back speaker levels and frequency balance. This ensures that you can experience all the details of your movies when listening below the reference level.

A Suite of Audyssey Technologies to Tailor Multichannel Audio to the Home

The TX-SR876 is equipped with MultEQ™ XT, Audyssey's most powerful built-in solution for countering distortion in dedicated home theaters. Gathering measurements from up to eight positions in the listening area, it takes account of both frequency response and time domain (where most of the problems lie) across the entire listening area, to deliver a clear, well-balanced and natural sound. The TX-SR876 also features two other Audyssey technologies: (1) Dynamic EQ™, which selects the best frequency response and surround levels moment-by-moment, for the best listening experience at any volume; and (2) Dynamic Volume™, which maintains the desired listening level for all content, while optimizing the dynamic range.

ISF (Image Science Foundation) Video Calibration for Accurate Video Reproduction

The TX-SR876 is one of the first A/V receivers equipped with industry-leading ISF (Imaging Science Foundation) video calibration to dramatically improve your home theater by enabling sharper-focused, fuller-resolution images and a more accurate color balance. Making your A/V receiver a true video hub, this function ensures that every video source is independently calibrated for your connected high-definition display. What's more, ISF video calibration has been shown to improve energy savings in displays and projectors by up to 50%.
