7-channel receiver power!
The included HT-R667 A/V receiver breaks new ground in the mid-range category by featuring not only the lossless audio codecs, Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD® Master Audio, but also the most advanced version of HDMI (ver. 1.3a). And with a wealth of other class-leading features — 1080p video processing, Audyssey's MultEQ® XT technology for room calibration and advanced processing devices from Texas Instruments and Cirrus Logic — nothing has been sacrificed in the making of this remarkable home theater component. To support progressive scan, the HT-R667 features a deinterlacing chip with Faroudja DCDi Edge™ (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing). This technology helps to effectively eliminate video artifacts from HDTV images.
Ilidad and Audyssey MultiEQ XT
With unquestionably no relation to Homer's epic poems of the Trojan War, Audyssey MultiEQ XT automatic speaker calibration provides remarkable improvements in performance by calibrating the home theater system to its acoustical environment. With this system, the included calibration microphone is used to analyze the system's acoustical output at up to eight unique positions in the listening area. By taking readings in different locations in the theater room, with the microphone placed at the listening positions, the receiver sends test signals to each speaker in turn, then uses the input from the microphone to adjust both frequency response and time domain corrections for each speaker throughout the entire listening area, rather than just at a single position.
Get big sound on your little iPod
Onkyo designed this receiver to take complete advantage of the company's included Remote Interactive iPod dock/charger unit. With the iPod (sold separately) placed in the dock, it becomes a source component for not only audio playback, but also for photography stored in iPod photo units. Basic iPod controls such as play, pause, stop, skip, and random/repeat functions can all be operated via the HT-R667's preprogrammed learning back-lit remote control.
