Load it up

For a receiver with "the works", look to Onkyo's TX-NR3009. This advanced AV component features just about everything you could think to want from your receiver. It can handle Full HD video (even 3D), or it can even upscale your picture to 4K with a Marvell Qdeo video chip. On the audio side of things, all the most advanced codecs are supported, including Dolby TrueHD and dts-HD. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 audio setup, ISFccc video calibration, and THX Ultra2 Plus certification combine to ensure your home theater experience is nothing short of incredible. Each of the nine channels offers an ear-shattering 140 W of steady, clean power, while two subwoofer pre-outs allow you to double your bass. This gives you the freedom to enjoy a Dolby Pro Logic IIz or Audyssey DSX setup while still having rear surround speakers, or to enjoy a 7.1-channel system in the main zone with a powered second zone. Meanwhile a veritable plethora of inputs offer support for all of your AV devices, new and old. A network port or optional USB wireless adapter even allow you to tap into web sources like Napster, Slacker, Pandora, MediaFly, Last.FM, and Rhapsody as well as DLNA devices like many PCs. A front USB port offers Direct Digital Connection for your iPhone or iPod with an Advanced Music Enhancer to make your compressed files sound better. A variety of control ports give you the freedom to set up your system just the way you want to. Meanwhile, Zone 2 and Zone 3 pre-outs let you create the multi-room audio system you've always wanted. Whatever your AV pleasure, this receiver's happy to oblige.
