Ultrawide Bandwidth design provides better high frequency headroom and therefore cannot be as easily overloaded. Component Video Switching allows you to run your component video signals through this receiver and still maintain component picture quality while gaining complete switching functionality. Crystal Circuit DSP Processing circuit provides superior digital processing of both Dolby Digital and DTS formats. Logic 7 Cinema and Music Surround Logic 7 is a Harman International proprietary technique developed by Lexicon for creating multichannel surround playback from two-channel sources, extremely beneficial for musical reproduction. Film soundtracks will have solid center channel dialog with outstanding clarity and intelligibility, better channel separation with smoother pans front to back and an exceptional transition from speaker to speaker. The built-in Digital AM/FM Stereo Tuner processes FM and AM radio broadcasts digitally, locking in on the signal for less drift and reduced distortion. It also allows for simple storage of station frequencies in convenient presets. Audio Digital Signal Processing (DSP) recreates different sonic environments, simulating the acoustics of locations like arenas, churches, and clubs. Playing music through a DSP mode creates a more vivid, life-like listening experience. DSP delivers sounds sculpted to recreate the reflections and reverberations that make live performances so satisfying. Multi-Room/Multi-Source Capabilities extend your audio enjoyment throughout the home. Listen to two different sources in two rooms - DVD in one and an FM rock station in the other, for example - at the same time.
