PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
BLACK
THX
®
Certified Select theater-reference sound
THX Certified Select guarantees the same reference volume
and sound quality of a commercial theater in rooms where the
screen-to-seat distance is about 12 ft. (3.5 m). THX
®
certified
receivers must pass 2,000 bench-tests in 75 categories.
Welcome to the 8K Ultra HD experience
Features defined in HDMI
®
2.1 specification enable 8K/60p
video passthrough to your compatible display. As well as
HDR10 and HLG, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision
formats
optimize brightness, contrast, and color scene-by-scene or
frame-by-frame. All HDMI terminals support HDCP 2.3,
while eARC on Main Out passes encoded multichannel audio
(including Dolby Atmos
®
or DTS:X
®
) from your compatible
TV’s tuner, video streaming apps, or connected media players
to the AVR for amplification. QMS (Quick Media Switching) for
movies and video eliminates the delay that can result in a blank
screen before content is displayed.
Note: Features defined in HDMI 2.1 specification, HDR10+, and passthrough
capabilities described are supported on HDMI inputs 1–3, Main Out, and Sub/Zone 2
Out in Sub Mode output.
New enhancements for gamers
Transform your playtime with 3D surround-sound and gain

Dolby Atmos and DTS:X
– celebrate a new world of sound
Dolby Atmos and DTS:X translate 3D soundtracks from the
studio mixing desk to your living room. Sounds are no longer
tied to specific channels, and are free to move around and
above your audience, placing them at the heart of the action.
Enjoy legacy formats with 3D sound
Dolby Atmos Height Virtualizer and DTS Virtual:X
deliver
3D sound through any listener-level speaker layout. The
technologies can work independently or with Dolby Surround
®
or DTS
®
Neural:X upmixers to create a 3D sound-field with
any audio signal (excluding Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and
DTS
®
Express).
5 GHz/2.4 GHz dual-band Wi-Fi
®
supports the 802.11ac standard
*
A powerful quad-core SoC (System on a
Chip) performs multiple processing tasks
at once. It evolves network functions and
supports the 802.11ac (2x2 MIMO) standard for stable multi-
room audio streaming.
* Note: some countries or regions have regulations that affect wireless signal strength
and the use of Wi-Fi channels.
Clearer dialog at the touch of a button
Vocal Enhancer solves the problem of inaudible dialog in
movies and TV programs by using DSP algorithms to elevate
vocal frequencies in the soundtrack. The effect level can be
raised or lowered using keys on the remote control.
AccuEQ room acoustic calibration
Detects speaker size, crossover frequency, and distance from
the listening position and sets appropriate sound-pressure
levels. Sets crossover and EQs all speakers including the
subwoofers. AccuReflex
optimizes 3D sound through Dolby
Atmos-enabled speakers by correcting phase differences in
directional and non-directional sound-paths. The result is a
clear and cohesive sound-field.
Bi-directional Bluetooth
®
wireless technology
This AVR can send and receive audio via Bluetooth wireless
technology. Stream from your device to the receiver using
SBC or AAC codecs, or transmit audio playing through the
AVR to compatible wireless headphones using SBC, aptX
, or
aptX HD codecs including 24-bit audio over aptX HD.
Note: supports MAIN Zone source transmission (excludes Chromecast built-in and
Works with Alexa). Lossless 24-bit audio requires headphones supporting aptX HD.
Zone 2 outputs for powered multi-room audio
Deploy a 7.2-ch or 5.2.2-ch layout in MAIN with Zone 2
speakers connected via dedicated Zone 2 speaker posts and
switch to 5.2-ch + Zone 2 playback anytime. Sync one source
or play two sources (including analog, HDMI, SPDIF, and NET)
in both rooms simultaneously.
Note: HDMI and SPDIF supports 2-ch PCM only. HDMI available on inputs 1–3.
Output from Zone 2 line-out is enabled.
Multi-function Zone 2 or Zone B line-out
Analog RCA line-out terminal is served by a Zone 2
D/A converter and supports two Zone audio modes:
Zone 2 supports active speaker or hi-fi system connection.
Sync a source in MAIN and Zone 2, or play two unique
sources simultaneously. Zone B suits wireless headphone
docks. Enjoy MAIN Zone audio source through your wireless
headphones.
Note: in Zone 2 mode, HDMI audio is available on inputs 1–3 and SPDIF and HDMI
support 2-ch PCM signals only. In Zone B mode, encoded and 2-ch PCM audio (all
