The Easy Way to Enjoy Home Networking and Distributed Audio
The TX-NR1008 is an upper-mid-range A/V powerhouse designed to give you maximum set-up flexibility in the home. Its 9.2 speaker channels let you enjoy a multichannel source in your main room, plus powered audio in two other rooms. Or you can use the extra channels to take full advantage of the new surround dimensions of Audyssey DSX and Dolby Pro Logic IIz. Other processing highlights include DTS-HD Master Audio and Dolby TrueHD for pristine lossless audio on Blu-ray Disc, and HDMI upscaling of all video sources to 1080p with Faroudja DCDi Cinema. As a network A/V receiver compatible with Windows 7 and DLNA, the TX-NR1008 lets you stream audio from your PC or from internet radio channels sourced through vTuner. Set up and calibration are easy and accurate, thanks to ISF video calibration, a new overlaid graphical on-screen display, and Audyssey room correction and equalization. Bi-amping capability and a smorgasbord of the latest connections complete what is an outstanding entertainment package.
HDMI 1.4a Support for 3D Video and Audio Return Channel
The seven HDMI 1.4a inputs on the TX-NR1008 let you simultaneously connect high-def sources such as a Blu-ray player, a gaming console, and a cable/satellite tuner. And the two HDMI outputs let you send a pristine signal at the same time to two different high-resolution displays. 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 coming to market. The TX-NR1008 also offers the convenience of an Audio Return Channel via HDMI. Audio content received directly by your HDTVs tuner can be sent upstream to your A/V receiver, without the need for a separate S/PDIF audio cable. feature. Another benefit of having the TX-NR1008 connected to the internet is that you can then easily update its firmware.

Audyssey DSX and Dolby Pro Logic IIz Add New Dimensions to Surround Sound
The TX-NR1008 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-NR1008s 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.
PC Audio and Internet Radio via Network Function with DLNA 1.5 and Windows 7 Compatibility
As one of Onkyos new breed of receivers that can link directly to the internet or to your home PC via a local network, the TX-NR1008 takes streaming audio and internet radio to a whole new level. MP3, WMA, WMA Lossless, FLAC, WAV, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, and LPCM audio fileswhether on your PC or from the internetcan now be played back through your main system with unprecedented power and fidelity. The TX-NR1008 brings to life a huge array of internet radio channels sourced via vTuner*. As well as being compatible with earlier platforms, the receiver is compatible with Microsofts new Windows 7 platform, which includes the DLNA 1.5-specified Play To media-streaming
THX Select2 Plus Certified
THX Select2 Plus certification is specified for rooms where the screento-seat viewing distance is 3 to 4 meters and the room volume is around 56 cubic meters. To achieve THX Select2 Plus certification, the TX-NR1008 had to meet the worlds most demanding standards for home theater audio quality and performance, and play at reference volume levels with minimal distortion.

PLL (Phase Locked Loop) Jitter-Cleaning Circuit Technology
Jitter is an unwanted side-effect of the digital-toanalog conversion process. Caused by fluctuations in the time domain of a digital signal, jitter has a detrimental impact on perceived audio quality. PLL jitter-cleaning circuit technology reduces jitter by comparing the input and output phases of the digital signal and creating an accurate clock waveform. This enhances the precision of digital signal processing and noticeably improves audio quality. Jitter-cleaning technology works both for digital signals input via HDMI and for digital signals converted from analog signals inside the receiver itself.
