TX-SR608 7.2-Channel Home Theatre Receiver
Microphone for Audyssey
BLA CK
Hitting the Sweet Spot Where Budget and Performance Meet
Sure, we call it an “entry-level” A/V receiver. But when you witness the full potential of the TX-SR608, you’ll know the level you’re entering is far beyond the ordinary. For a start, you get six of the latest HDMI sources. HDMI 1.4 also brings compatibility with the new 3D video format, as well as an Audio Return Channel from your display back to the receiver. Complementing HDMI on the input front, you have an analog RGB video input for connecting your PC, and a Universal Port for Onkyo peripherals. All video sources, regardless of resolution, can be upscaled to big and beautiful 1080p via HDMI and Faroudja DCDi Cinema surround formats of Audyssey DSX work to ensure extremely precise and faithful amplification. In recognition of the TX-SR608’s outstanding A/V prowess, it has been awarded THX
HDMI®1.4 Support for 3D Video and Audio Return Channel
The six HDMI 1.4 inputs on the TX-SR608 let you simultaneously connect high-def sources such as a Blu-ray player, a gaming console, and a cable/satellite tuner. A single output then sends a pristine signal to your connected high-resolution display. As the latest version of this connector, HDMI 1.4 adds the exciting possibilities of 3D video and an Audio Return Channel. 3D video is the next big thing in home entertainment, with movie, game, and broadcast content on the increase and 3D-compatible TVs on the near horizon. The TX-SR608 also offers the convenience of an Audio Return Channel via HDMI.
Audio content received directly by your HDTV’s tuner can be sent “upstream” to your A/V receiver, without the need for a separate S/PDIF audio cable.
HDMI Video Upscaling to 1080p with Faroudja DCDi Cinema
When it comes to video processing, the Faroudja DCDi Cinema (Directional Correlational Deinter lacing) video processor offers several advantages. This processor can accept any video signal, regardless of the source resolution, and upscale it to 1080p to match the native resolution of your high-definition display. What’s more, DCDi Cinema effectively removes video artifacts such as jagged edges during the video signal deinterlacing process. You get to enjoy smooth progressive scan video images, even for fast-moving spor ts and action scenes.

. Audio processing incorporates quality Burr-Brown DACs, lossless Dolby and DTS codecs, and the expanded
and Dolby Pro Logic®IIz. Three-stage inverted Darlington circuitry and jitter-cleaning technology
Select2 Plus Certification.
Audyssey DSX™and Dolby®Pro Logic®IIz Add New Dimensions to Surround Sound
The TX-SR608 handles two new surround-sound technologies from Audyssey and Dolby that offer exciting new ways to set up the speakers in your home theatre system. Audyssey DSX lets you incorporate “front wide” speakers, in place of the usual surround back speakers, to expand the width of the soundstage. Set up at a recommended 60° off center, these channels help to produce a more realistic soundstage and a more immersive listening experience. Alternatively, Audyssey DSX can reconfigure the TX-SR608’s surround back channels to deliver “front height” channels. These channels carry ambient, non-directional audio
that adds a new vertical dimension to your movies and games. Dolby Pro Logic IIz provides a similar front-height speaker option that likewise works to create a more enveloping home theatre experience.
THX®Select2 Plus™Certified
THX Select2 Plus certification is specified for rooms where the screen­to-seat viewing distance is 3 to 4 meters and the room volume is around 56 cubic meters. To achieve THX Select2 Plus certification, the TX-SR608 must meet the world’s most demanding standards for home theatre audio quality and performance, and must play at reference volume levels with minimal distortion.

TX-SR608 7.2-Channel Home Theatre Receiver
Decoding of High-Definition Surround­Sound Codecs
The TX-SR608 can decode Dolby®TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio
—two lossless formats that enable delivery of a bit-for-bit soundtrack identical to the studio master track. These codecs, previously available only on mid-range and high-end receivers, take advantage of the high data capacity of the Blu-ray format.
Convenient Overlaid Graphical On-Screen Display via HDMI
Changing your A/V receiver’s settings is now more seamless than ever, thanks to the TX-SR608’s new overlaid graphical On-Screen Display (OSD) feature. Simply press the Home button on the included remote controller, and semi-transparent graphical set-up menus appear overlaid on the video image you’re watching. This means you can adjust the settings immediately, without having to switch back and for th from a blank screen background.
192 kHz/24-Bit Burr-Brown DACs Improve Jitter Performance to Deliver Clearer Sound
High-quality Burr-Brown DACs (PCM1690) work to optimize analog audio performance on the TX-SR608. These DACs perform advanced 24-bit signal processing and suppor t sampling rates of up to 192 kHz, while displaying high resistance to clock jitter and offering a 113 dB dynamic range.
A Suite of Audyssey Technologies for the Ideal Listening Environment
(1) Audyssey 2EQ™tailors multi-channel audio for
your home theatre speaker set-up by measuring three room positions and applying a resolution filter to the satellite speakers to correct for room acoustics.
(2) Audyssey Dynamic Volume
automatically compensates for volume fluctuations in different audio content—for example, during commercial breaks—while optimizing the dynamic range.
(3)Audyssey Dynamic EQ
maintains a consistent bass response, tonal balance, and surround-sound effect at different volume levels, so you can enjoy the natural dynamics of your content regardless of the volume.
Playback of Different Audio Sources in Two Different Zones
With Powered Zone 2, you can enjoy surround­sound entertainment in the main room, while playing back a different stereo source in a second zone equipped with a pair of speakers. Alternatively, you can use the Zone 2 line-out to send an unamplified audio signal to an amplifier (and speakers) in the second room.
