Processing prowess.

This professional-caliber sonic performance is powered by the Advanced Digital Core Engine, with twice the processing capacity, for twice the precision. Sharc®-EX and Motorola® 48-Bit Processing DSP handle all the digital content you can throw at it — faster and better. For superior sound purity and accuracy, the Burr-Brown™ chipset provides impressive 24-bit D/A conversion. Cutting-edge processing technologies come with meticulously engineered circuitry, designed to shorten and purify the signal path for improved efficiency and performance.

Professional-grade calibration for everyone.

It's all about accuracy: hearing precisely what the sound engineer intended, in the room of your choice. Achieve this accuracy, easier than ever, with the first advanced Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration Circuit (MCACC). Using a microphone, MCACC measures your room's acoustic environment, then fine tunes the sonic performance of your home entertainment system. For even more customization, you can view a 3-D graphic representation of a room’s unique acoustic topography on your PC. Professional-level custom calibration is made even easier with dedicated online support. Custom installers will also appreciate its Blu-ray Disc® ready RS-232C.
