Onkyo, the UK's No.1 home cinema receiver maker, announces the release of two new landmark, high-end products: the TX-NR5008 and TX-NR3008 network-enabled home cinema receivers. Both models offer a dazzling array of state of the art technologies, user-friendly home cinema features, and THX Ultra2 Plus certification.

Both of these models feature eight HDMI v1.4a inputs, with compatibility specified for an Audio Return Channel and 3D video. Both mandatory video formats for 3D broadcasting are supported and, with the quantity of 3D content soon set to rise dramatically, users will be able to take advantage of the unique visual experience made possible by this dynamic new format.

Dual HDMI outputs are also provided on both models, allowing users to connect two high-definition displays simultaneously. In conjunction with HDMI, HQV-Reon VX processing enables 1080p upscaling of all video inputs, regardless of source resolution. Staying with video, these flagship integrateds feature advanced ISF video calibration. This allows users to make fine-tuned, independent adjustments for each video source, delivering the best video quality possible.

Naturally, support is also provided for Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio™, the popular lossless codecs found on Blu-ray Disc. Furthermore, compatibility with DSD Direct means that users will be able to enjoy their SACD (Super Audio CD) collections in all their pristine clarity. High-quality Burr-Brown DACs allow these Onkyo models to handle the heavy demands of multi-channel audio processing.
