How High-Resolution Audio works

Listen like you’re in the recording studio

High-Resolution Audio works by converting analog sound to digital at a higher and more precise rate than CDs. High-Resolution Audio can sample sound at a rate greater than 24 bit/96 Hz, capturing more details and subtleties, resulting in music that is as real as it gets.

7.2 channels for dynamic surround sound

A 7.2 channel AV receiver enables truly dynamic surround sound, while Digital Cinema Automatic Calibration (DCAC) optimizes audio performance — so you can position your speakers where you like, and still experience well balanced sound.

Enhanced cinematic sound

Experience rich, multi-channel audio with Dolby True HD — engineered to deliver 100 percent lossless sound across movies and music.

Hear the action all around you

For expansive cinema surround sound, DTS-HD Master Audio reproduces near studio-quality lossless audio.

Upscale picture quality closer to 4K Ultra HD

The STR-DN850 upscales Full HD movies and TV programs closer to 4K Ultra HD quality. See up to four times the resolution of Full HD ̶ 4K Ultra HD brings lifelike detail to whatever you’re watching.

Everything connected

For a dynamic home entertainment setup, there are five HDMI inputs and one HMDI output, optical digital and analog AV connections. There’s room for your current equipment ̶ including your TV, Blu-ray Disc™ player, and speakers ̶ and there’s scope to expand.

Premium construction. Optimum sound.

The STR-DN850 Home Theater receiver uses the highest quality components and design ̶ including improved circuitry and a reinforced frame and beam chassis for optimum audio visual performance.

Heat sink design

Air intake is maximized, helping the amplifier circuit withstand unwanted sound pressure and keep cool.

Power, amplified

A resin-coated circuit board improves structural stability and enables greater output from the power amplifier.

A sound structure

A reinforced frame and beam chassis design reduces external speaker sound pressure for more focused, powerful sound.

Fine-tune every note
