ES Receivers V3.0

Page 2

Introduction

For 2003, Sony is introducing a completely new and dramatically different

line of ES Series audio/video receivers. To create these remarkable
components, Sony ES engineers have rethought, refreshed and redesigned just
about every aspect:

• Digital power amplifier technology (STR-DA2000ES and higher)

• Redesigned internal chassis layout (STR-DA2000ES and higher)

• Pulse power supply (STR-DA2000ES, DA3000ES and DA5000ES)

• i.LINK® (IEEE 1394) 1-bit digital interface for Super Audio CD (STR-

DA9000ES)

• Superior ergonomics with "silver cascade" front panel (STR-DA3000ES and

higher)

While these design breakthroughs are exciting and fresh, the fact that they

make their appearance in the Sony ES Series should come as no surprise at all.
From the very beginning, ES receivers have benefited from Sony's
comprehensive expertise in digital source components and Sony's thorough
understanding of digital signals. Those insights led directly to significant Sony
ES innovations:

• The world's first outboard D/A converter (DAS-702ES, 1985).

• The world's first Dolby® Surround decoder to operate in the digital domain

(SDP-505ES, 1986).

• The world's first all-digital preamplifier (TA-E1000ESD, 1989).

• 24-bit Dolby Digital® decoding (SDP-EP9ES, 1997).

• Digital Cinema Sound™ processing (STR-DA90ESG, 1997).

• World's first floating-point 32-bit preamplifier (TA-E9000ES, 1998).

Sony's latest A/V receivers are worthy successors, carrying this heritage

forward to a new generation of home entertainment enthusiasts.
