Go Beyond the Limitations of Other Home Theater Receivers
Limiting your A/V receiver to just home theater is something that other companies may do but at Onkyo we take a decidedly different approach with
the creation of an entirely new category for home entertainment. The TX
-
NR801 has the value added feature only we can provide—Net-Tune
home network capability. Streaming your computer’s MP3, WAV or WMA files or opening up a world of music with Internet radio via the Ethernet port
on the back is just the beginning with this technological masterpiece. Composite/S

and the latest in surround sound formats let you unlock the full potential of what an A/V home theater receiver can do.

THX SELECT 7.1-CHANNEL A/V SURROUND HOME NETWORK RECEIVER
THX Select Certified
The TX
-
NR801 boasts the distinction of the exclusive THX Select badge of
approval. This gives you assurance that this receiver passed (and often exceeds)
THX’s numerous requirements in such areas as frequency response, distortion,
power output, and stability.
Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 5.1-channel
sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives three surround channels
from the two in the original recording. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should
be used with movie soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.
DTS 96/24
This format offers you the sound quality of the original 96-kHz, 24-bit master in
5.1-channel surround sound for music and movie soundtracks on DVDs encoded
in DTS 96/24. Also, you won’t have to worry about buying a new DVD player.
DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD

Audio.
This gives you the convenience of making it playable on all DVD players.
Crossover Adjustment for Bass Management
Previously crossover frequency was fixed at 80 Hz. With Crossover Adjustment,
you can set the frequency at 40/60/80/100/120 or 150 Hz depending on
your speaker’s bass playback ability. This lets you more accurately match the
performance characteristics of the subwoofer to your front speakers.
VLSC
(
Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry
)
Conventional D/A conversion methods reduce digital pulse noise at the conversion
stage but can’t remove it completely. Previously only available on Onkyo’s
high-end components, VLSC
(
Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry
)
employs a unique
D/A conversion circuit to overcome this problem. Data is converted between
the sampling points and these discreet sampling points are joined with analog
vectors in real-time to produce a smooth output wave form. The result—a
noiseless, smooth analog signal based on the digital source.
Color-Coded Inputs and Outputs
Onkyo’s commitment to bringing the most user-friendly designed products to
market further manifests itself with color-coded inputs and outputs. Now you’ll
no longer have worries about which wire goes to which input or output. Simply
attach the color-coded label to the appropriate wire, attach the cable to the
same colored input or output for fast and easy connection.
Component Video Upconversion
Convenience is upgraded with the ability to run just one cable from your receiver
to your HDTV with composite/S

Video to component video upconversion. Hook
up your video player, CD player, LD player—all your S

Video or composite video
out components—to the back of the TX

NR801 and each signal will flow to
your compatible TV or projector via one component video cable.
Net-Tune
Unprecedented access to radio stations around the world is made possible by
Onkyo’s exclusive Net-Tune protocol. Hook up your TX

NR801 to a router or
hub connected to your broadband modem via a high-speed Ethernet cable.
Press the Net-Tune button on the front panel and you’re ready to surf the airwaves
of cyberspace. You can also add new life to the existing content on your computer
by hooking it up to the TX

NR801 via a standard network hub. You’ll agree,
your MP3s, WAV, WMA files and Internet radio have never sounded so good.
