THX SELECT 6.1-CHANNEL SURROUND RECEIVER
Available in Silver or Black
Meet the Newest Member of Onkyos THX Certified FamilyThe TX-SR701E
Inheriting the characteristics that made its predecessor one of Onkyos best built receivers, the TX-SR701E adds the guarantee of build and sound excellence that can only come from THX certification. The TX-SR701E is also ready for the rigors of a high-definition world with an impressive array of inputs and outputs combined with smooth high bandwidth handling capability. This model is prepared to handle all your entertainment needs with the latest decoding formats such as Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES and DTS 96/24. Combine this with the sonic excellence provided by VLSC and WRAT that only Onkyo can give you, the TX-SR701E is the receiver for those serious about their sound.
THX Select Certified The TX-SR701E boasts the distinction of the exclusive THX Select badge of approval. This gives you assurance that this receiver passed (and often exceeds) THXs numerous requirements in such areas as frequency response, distortion, power output, and stability. The Latest Decoding Formats In addition to the formats youve come to expect from Onkyos high-end receivers-THX Surround EX, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS-ES, etc., youll also find two of the latest decoding formats for your home on the TX-SR701E. Dolby Digital EX, for six full-bandwidth channels from 5.1-channel sources and DTS 96/24 sound quality comparable to the 96 kHz, 24-bit master in full surround sound glory. Dual 32-Bit DSP Chips These powerful and highly accurate dual 32-bit DSP processing chips combined with the ultra-precise 192 kHz/24-bit audio DACs featured in the TX-SR701E give you an accurate digital signal to faithfully recreate a wide variety of surround sound from digital sources for pure audio perfection. Color-Coded Inputs and Outputs Onkyos commitment to bringing the most user-friendly designed products to market further manifests itself with color-coded inputs and outputs. Now youll no longer have worries about which wire goes to which input or output. Simply attach the color-coded label to the appropriate wire, and attach the cable to the same colored input or output for fast and easy connection. Powered Zone 2 Capability Unlike other receivers, you dont need an external amplifier to enjoy 2.1 channels in the main room, while at the same time your partner listens to a different stereo source (radio, CD, MD, LP or cassette) in another room.
VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) Conventional D/A conversion methods reduce digital pulse noise at the conversion stage but cant remove it completely. Previously only available on Onkyos high-end components, VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) employs a unique D/A conversion circuit to overcome this problem. Data is converted between the sampling points and these discreet sampling points are joined with analog vectors in real-time to produce a smooth output wave form. The resulta noiseless, smooth analog signal based on the digital source. Crossover Adjustment for Bass Management Previously crossover frequency was fixed at 80 Hz. With Crossover Adjustment, you can set the frequency at 40/60/80/100/120/150 Hz depending on your speakers bass playback ability. This lets you more accurately match the performance characteristics of the subwoofer to your front speakers. Absolute Ground Plate and Bus Bars Formerly only found in our higher range of receivers, the Absolute Ground Plate and bus bars diminish fluctuations in the electrical potential and eliminate ground hum for more efficient power distribution, reduced noise, and crisper sound.
