R-N855

Network Stereo Receiver

Hi-Fi Performance from a Compact Body

Onkyo’s in-house-developed Switching Amplier technology delivers high power with vanishingly low distortion from a physically small receiver. Powered by a custom transformer

and huge audio capacitors, the discrete modulation stage

delivers exceptionally clear and musical sound, even with difcult-to-drive or sensitive speakers.

Super-Rigid Construction Reects a Premium Build

The amp system and audio circuit boards are housed in a rigid, 1.6 mm-thick full-at metal chassis further stiffened by a solid aluminum faceplate. Together with anti-resonant insulator feet, vibrations that cause interference on audio signals are virtually eliminated, improving clarity.

Cast Music from Mobile and PC

Google Cast™* and AirPlay® included on the receiver let you cast audio from a variety of suppor ted applications for iPhone, iPad, and Android Chromebook computers) in seconds. Bluetooth technology is also included.

* Service enabled via rmware update TBA.

Select, Play, and Update Music Stored on a

Connected HDD

Load your entire digital library onto an HDD*, connect it to one of the receiver’s USB inputs, and use our smartphone app to browse and play anything in your collection complete with album art and song information. A future rmware update will enable full music server capability with audio les writable to HDD via personal computer.

* HDD must be formatted to FAT32. Onkyo cannot guarantee, nor has tested for, correct operation with all HDD device types and brands.

Hi-Res Audio via Network or USB

The R-N855 receiver features a premium AK4490 768 kHz/ 32-bit DAC to conver t digital signals into a smooth analog waveform. This DAC module is renowned for high bandwidth and low noise, and decodes 11.2 MHz DSD and 192/24 PCM Hi-Res Audio formats over network or USB.

VLSC™ Reduces Noise and Reveals Detail

Pulse noise arises when converting digital signals to analog. The R-N855 features VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry), a unique technology that analyzes input and output signals and erases noise, clarifying details otherwise hidden in subtle distortion.

VLSC reshapes the signal by generating an original signal

line (vector).

Supports FireConnect™* Multi-room Audio

Place optionally available wireless speakers in other rooms of your home to enjoy any source connected to your R-N855 Stereo Receiver (even your LPs) and have music wherever you go thanks to FireConnect

* Multi-room audio is realized by FireConnect™, a wireless technology by Blackre Research Corp., USA. We do not guarantee this product will work with all FireConnect™compatible speakers. Optional speakers are scheduled for release. Available sources are model-dependent.
