Keen to move up to the world of stunning surround sound and fully immersive movies and games? If so, the TX-SR578 is a great place to start. Onkyo’s gift to you is an eye-opening, ear-pleasuring bundle of advanced A/V tech made affordable. Connectivity options include four of the latest 3D-ready HDMI® 1.4a inputs for high-def sources, a Universal Port for peripherals, and a front-side input for portable devices. On the processing side, you get 1080p upscaling of all video sources via HDMI and Faroudja DCDi Cinema™; lossless HD audio formats from Dolby and DTS; and Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz for new vertical surround-sound possibilities. Thanks to Audyssey volume and equalization technologies, you’ll enjoy optimal listening levels and a well-balanced soundstage. When it comes to adjusting the settings, Onkyo’s new overlaid graphical On-Screen Display makes it easier than ever. All of these bells and whistles would mean nothing if they weren’t backed up by decades of Onkyo amplifier know-how in the form of WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology) and a high-current, low-impedance drive.
