Individual sounds aren’t tied to channels and move naturally around your audience.

Dolby® and DTS® solutions for 3D sound
DTS Neural:X™ technology and Dolby Surround find cues in legacy soundtracks and upmix for playback through systems with height channels. Cross-compatible with Dolby® and DTS® formats, enjoy spatially realistic and natural sound from your existing DVD and Blu-ray Disc™ library or via movie streaming service.

Powered sound in three zones
With a 5.2-ch cinema layout in Zone 1 (Main), the remaining four channels can drive speakers in Zone 2 and Zone 3. As well as analog distribution, dedicated DACs enable digital sources* to be synced across rooms simultaneously, or a unique source to be played in every zone at once. Zone 2 and Zone 3 line-level outputs are ideal for sharing sources to existing hi-fi systems.

• Audio via HDMI inputs and S/PDIF audio not supported in Zone 3.

AccuEQ Advance for Accurate Calibration
AccuEQ sets speaker distance, SP level, and crossover. In addition, AccuEQ Advance employs multi-point measurement to remove standing waves from your listening space, which compromise audio quality and bass response. The technology also detects and compensates for background noise, such as the hum from an HVAC, to ensure accurate equalization.

Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® wireless connectivity
Built-in 5 GHz/2.4 GHz Wi-Fi provides network stability for streaming, Onkyo Controller app, and multi-room audio. Bluetooth wireless technology is also on board for easy mobile or laptop connection.

AirPlay, streaming services, and internet radio built in
