192/24
Costly, extremely powerful digital-to-analog converters , that not only boast a dynamic range of 120 dB, they process information faster and are virtually resistant to clock jitter, to ensure the best possible performance from DVD-Audio, DVD-Video and audio CD.

7.1 Multichannel Inputs
The emergence of HD-DVD and Blu-ray discs promises to bring unparalleled realism to home theater. Dolby and DTS have each developed improved audio formats to be encoded on these new DVD discs that will superbly complement the latest in highdefinition video. By connecting a player compatible with these new audio codecs to an Onkyo A/V receiver equipped with 7.1 multichannel inputs, you will be able to experience extreme sonic clarity from these new discs, while retaining the full use of the receiver`s other onboard codecs.

HQV Reon-VX Chip for High-Performance Video Processing
Representing the most sophisticated video processing to be seen in home theater components, the HQV Reon-VX chip provides the ultimate support for standard definition and high definition deinterlacing; 1080p reconstruction of film sources; filtering of jaggies and artifacts; and 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.

VLSC
Conventional D/A conversion methods reduce digital pulse noise at the conversion stage but can`t remove it completely. Previously only found on our high-end components, VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) employs a unique D/A conversion circuit to overcome this problem. Data is converted between sampling points and these points are joined with analog vectors in real-time to produce a smooth output wave form. The result — a virtually noiseless, smooth analog signal based on the digital source to bring out even the most subtle of nuances in your music, movie soundtracks and even MP3s!

WRAT
Imagine turning up the volume and filling your entertainment room with noise-free, impressively powerful, true-to-life sound. That's the benefit of Wide Range Amplifier Technology. Originally developed for our most expensive high-end amplifiers to handle the sonic demands of today's digital age, you'll now find WRAT even in our lowest-priced A/V receivers. The WRAT family of technologies includes a broader frequency range with lower noise entering the signal path - perfectly suited for new high resolution DVD-Audio and SACD formats.

Audyssey MultEQ(R) XT
MultEQ XT is Audyssey`s most powerful built-in solution for countering distortion in dedicated home theaters.This technology detects speakers, and then sets levels, delays and crossovers, as well as measuring room acoustics. Using the receiver interface, it takes up to 8 measurements around the listening area and uses high-resolution equalization filters for satellites and subwoofers. MultEQ XT covers both frequency response and time domain (where most of the problems lie) across the entire listening area.The results are immediately obvious—a clear, well-balanced and natural sound.

XM HD Surround
XM Satellite Radio is America's number one satellite radio service. It offers 160 digital channels, including 68 commercial-free, diverse music channels; more than 40 channels of premier sports, talk, comedy, children's and entertainment programming; and 21 channels of traffic and weather information. Simply plug an XM Passport System into your XM Ready A/V receiver, and activate the service to start receiving uninterrupted radio programming of your choice. Now, in conjunction with Neural Audio, XM Satellite Radio offers XM HD Surround, which provides 5.1-channel surround sound on selected programming. This surround sound format will be available with selected A/V receivers that have the Neural Audio codec.

Great Sound & Fantastic Video Processing

"So, I've been vigorously auditioning both the Denon AVR-3808CI and Onkyo TX-SR875 over the past 30 days and have finally come to a decision as to which one to keep. I thought my decision and rationale may come in handy to someone looking at the same options. Note that both are really great receivers, but one of them just seemed to suit my needs better. This is a lot of information, so I will try and organize thi..." Read Full Review »
