Onkyo DTR-10.5 - Manual (Page 2)

THX Ultra2 Certification
For more than a decade, THX Certification has set the highest
standard for home theater equipment. Besides being able to
produce exceptional movie sound
quality through Ultra2 Cinema and
to create truly uplifting music with
Music Mode, it also features Game
Mode, a post-processing technology
and listening mode that revolutionizes the home video
game experience by immersing the player into the action.
To complete the package, Boundary Gain Compensation
(BGC) reduces “boomy” bass from listening positions
adjacent to walls and other obstructions.
Audiophile-Grade Components
The power supply is arguably one of
the most critical components in a
high-end amplifier. The DTR-10.5
employs a massive toroidal power
transformer to ensure that there is
plenty of current on-demand to beautifully reproduce
the dynamics of music and movies. Custom high capacity
filter capacitors give you greater power delivery at low
frequencies, plus tremendous continuous
power reserves. For hi-fi purists, discrete,
precision matched output transistors pro-
vide faster switching speed, which trans-
lates into a wider dynamic range.
Wolfson ® 192 kHz/24-Bit DACs for All Channels
Widely recognized as one of the industry’s best, these
sophisticated digital-to-analog converters from Wolfson
process more information faster, deliver an impressive
dynamic range, and are virtually jitter-free. If you want
the best performance possible from
DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD and other
high-resolution formats, you’ll appreciate
these ultra-precise converters.
i.LINK (IEEE-1394)
The promise of DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD
was an elation to music lovers around the world.
Their jubilance was short lived with the realization
that analog cables (up to six of them) would be
needed to connect the DVD player to the receiver. It was
soon recognized that these sophisticated multi-channel
recordings, with quality of sound never realized before,
would require a new type of connection to bring out their
true potential. Enter i.LINK – it simplifies and at the same time
expands your audio experience through a high-bandwidth,
high-resolution connection over a single cable. One wire
carries high-resolution multi-channel audio in the digital
domain to provide the blissful experience you’ve been
waiting for, without the hassle. i.LINK — the new standard
for digital audio.
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)
HDMI adds digital video to round out the system, creating
a completely digital home
theater experience. While the
name may be imposing, HDMI simplifies wiring by doing
away with the myriad cables required for a state-of-the-art
home entertainment system. By keeping everything in the
digital realm, unnecessary digital to analog conversions
are eliminated. Conventional composite, S-video, and 480i
component sources are upconverted to 480p for reduced
“jaggies” and flicker. With technology shifting to digital
displays such as plasma and LCD, a lossless digital signal
guarantees the crystal-clear images and pristine music your
home theater deserves. HDMI is backwards compatible
with DVI displays by using an adapter cable.
Video Upconversion
For those customers with analog displays, the DTR-10.5 also
features high quality conversion of composite and S-video
signals up to component video,
including time-base correction for
increased compatibility. While the
DTR-10.5 is one of the most
advanced home theater
components on the face of the
earth, you’re still likely to have
some composite or S-Video only
components in your system.
Connect your VCR, cable box, or
satellite receiver to the DTR-10.5 and each signal will flow
to your compatible TV or projector via one component cable.
This simplifies connection to your display and makes the
system easier to operate since the television can always
remain on the same video input.
