TX-NR818 Ev Sinema Amfisi

TX-NR818 7.2-Channel Network A/V Receiver

High-End Home Cinema Performance Starts Here
This Onkyo network receiver is a winner in three areas. Firstly, its video performance is unrivalled. A dual core video engine design utilizes an
HQV® Vida™ VHD1900 processor to upscale analog content to 1080p, with Qdeo™ technology taking full HD out to an eye-popping 4K. An ISF
system calibrates video from all inputs to industry standards, and the resulting picture is spectacular. Secondly, audio performance is unmatched,
as proven by THX® Select2 Plus™ certification. The receiver delivers power effortlessly through three-stage inverted Darlington circuitry and
192 kHz/24-bit DACs. Finally, you get more setup flexibility. There are eight HDMI® inputs—including an MHL for smart phones—and two
outputs. Two USB ports connect iPod/iPhone and LAN adaptor, enabling wireless PC and online audio. Three mind-blowing sound expansion
systems are included—Audyssey DSX®, DTS Neo:X™, and Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz—assisted by Audyssey MultEQ XT32 room correction.
Digital crossover processing, front channel bi-amping capability, and three-zone audio distribution grant the freedom to customize. With new
InstaPrevue™ input selection technology and intuitive system control via iPhone and Android phone, now is the time to upgrade to an Onkyo.

Wireless Cloud Streaming, Internet Radio, and
PC-Based Music
Connecting to your home network using a standard LAN
cable, the TX-NR818 makes streaming audio and internet
radio easy. You can also play formats including MP3, AAC,
Apple Lossless, FLAC, and WMA Lossless stored on your
PC through your Onkyo home cinema system. The receiver
offers easy access to internet radio channels from Last.fm
and vTuner, plus cloud-based music streaming from AUPEO!,
Simfy, and MP3tunes*. Wireless networking is enabled with
an optional UWF-1 Wireless LAN Adapter.
*Availability of services depends on region. Some services may require a firmware
update.
Mobile High-Definition Link for Smart Phone
Movies and Photos
The TX-NR818’s front-panel HDMI port is designed for the
connection of compatible smart phones and other portable
electronic devices using the new MHL™ standard. MHL
allows you to display full 1080p video and still images on
your HDTV with up to 7.1 channels of surround sound. Use
the receiver’s remote to control playback from your phone
as it receives a handy recharge.
InstaPrevue™ Technology Makes Switching
Sources Easy
The TX-NR818 incorporates InstaPrevue visual port
management technology, making input source selection
easier. InstaPrevue technology provides a live video thumbnail
of the available content on your devices connected via
HDMI. You no longer have to remember that your gaming
console is connected to Port 3, or your Blu-ray player to
Port 1, for example—you can see what’s playing and choose
accordingly.
THX® Select2 Plus™ Certified
THX Select2 Plus certification is specified for rooms where
the screen-to-seat viewing distance is three to four meters
and the room volume is around 56 cubic meters. To achieve
THX Select2 Plus certification, the TX-NR818 had to meet
the world’s most demanding standards for home cinema
audio quality and performance, and play at reference volume
levels with minimal distortion.
World’s Best Video Processing
Three of the best video processing and enhancement
systems are included to guarantee smooth and accurate
images on your HDTV.
HQV® Vida™ VHD1900
The Vida VHD1900 upscales analog content to 1080p, and enhances
native high-definition sources. The chip employs multi-cadence
tracking, expanded 12-bit color processing, and four-field motionadaptive
de-interlacing. Auto HQV™ enhances the incoming image,
while HQV StreamClean™ cleans up video from lower-quality online
sources by eliminating mosquito and block noise.

Marvell Qdeo™ Technology
Qdeo technology upscales 1080p sources to 4K (4096 x 2160)—
even content already upscaled from lower resolutions by the HQV
Vida processor. Played back on a compatible 4K display, your
high-definition content will look more cinematic than ever.
ISF Video Calibration
ISF (Imaging Science Foundation) video calibration dramatically
improves picture quality. Each video input source is independently
calibrated to achieve the best possible performance from your
connected HDTV.
Note: 4K video playback requires a 4K-compatible TV. HDMI pass-through of 4K
content from source devices is not supported. 4K upscaling of analog video is only
available at 480i.
Onkyo Remote Apps for iPod touch/iPhone and
Android Phone
The Onkyo Remote App 2 for iPod touch/iPhone*1 and
Onkyo Remote for Android phone*2 both provide an
intuitive way to operate Onkyo network A/V receivers.
Control input sources, adjust settings, and play audio stored
in a smart phone wirelessly (Android phone only) using the
application’s interactive graphical display. The two Remote
Apps are available separately as free downloads.
*1 Compatible with iPod touch (3rd generation or later) and iPhone 3GS or later. All
models require iOS 4.2 or later. *2 Requires Android OS 2.1 or later.
Three High Performance Sound Expansion Systems
A seven-channel system provides a more immersive
entertainment experience, with additional High or Wide
channels convincing you with realistic directional and
ambient effects. Audyssey DSX®, Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz,
and DTS Neo:X™ expansion systems offer you freedom to
choose your preferred speaker setup. Audyssey DSX can
expand 5.1 sources to incorporate Wide or Height channels.
The Dolby system adds Height channels and stereo source
expansion, while DTS Neo:X offers Wides or Heights with
cinema, music, or game listening modes.
Audyssey MultEQ XT32
Audyssey’s top-of-the-line room correction suite equalizes
the sound to suit the unique acoustics of your listening
space. High-resolution filters are applied to all channels—
including subwoofers—based on information collected from
more than 10,000 individual control points across eight
measurement positions.
Innovative Design and Quality Construction
This receiver is built to deliver superb sound quality.
Processing equipment and amplifier circuits are housed
separately to limit electrical interference, while PLL (Phase
Locked Loop) jitter cleaning preserves signal integrity by
eliminating digital clock noise. The amplifier’s three-stage
inverted Darlington circuitry—an enhancement to the core
WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology) concept—
ensures minimal distortion, and better manages impedance
fluctuations. Quality circuitry dovetails with a heavy-duty
power supply for instantaneous response to signal gains. The
resulting sound is reliably pure, even under heavy loads.
