Up to 8 channels of Linear PCM audio
 
Compatible with Blu-ray Disc™  format linear PCM (uncompressed) 
output, producing up to eight channels of high quality audio reproduction.
HDMI Active Intelligence
 
The receiver can detect and receive the best possible video and audio signals from all 
connected devices-making connection and performance as simple as plugging in a single wire. Sony HDMI Active 
Intelligence produces both audio and video through one HDMI cable (sold separately).
Faroudja® DCDi Cinema™  Chipset for Up Scaling to 1080p
 
The IC processor developed by Faroudja and first 
used by Sony upscales analog video signals (less than 1080p) to 1080p via HDMI . This chipset reduces image 
jaggedness and block noise, while reproducing colors that are closer to the original. The end result is a beautiful and 
smooth high definition image.
Xross Media Bar® Inspired Graphic User Interface
 
An on-screen menu that simplifies the most complex 
operations of an A/V receiver for home theater applications. This advanced menu system incorporates icons, an easy 
to follow tree system and a blending technique so users know exactly where they are among the various settings while 
still watching their main video source (up to 1080i). The menu includes access to DIGITAL MEDIA PORT accessories 
(sold separately), which lets you assign HDMI inputs and provides independent A/V sync control for each input. It's 
simple. Just pick up the remote and a whole new experience will be revealed.
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration
 
An ideal listening experience is only a button away. Simply place the included 
microphone in your listening position, push a single button and speaker position, distance and delays are 
automatically calibrated. Sony Digital Signal Processing uses feedback between the microphone and receiver to 
optimize sound settings.
