HDMI Video Upscaling to 1080p with
Faroudja DCDi Cinema
™
When it comes to video processing, Faroudja DCDi
Cinema offers several advantages. This processor
can accept any video signal, regardless of the source
resolution, and upscale it to 1080p to match the
native resolution of your high-definition display.
What’s more, DCDi Cinema effectively removes
video artifacts such as jagged edges during the
video signal deinterlacing process. You get to enjoy
smooth progressive scan video images, even for
fast-moving sports and action scenes.
A Suite of Audyssey Technologies for the
Ideal Listening Environment
(1) Audyssey MultEQ
Æ
measures and removes
distortion caused by room acoustics and calibrates
speakers for optimal listening throughout the room.
(2) Audyssey Dynamic Volume
™
automatically
compensates for volume fluctuations in different
audio content—for example, during commercial
breaks—while optimizing the dynamic range.
(3) Audyssey Dynamic EQ
Æ
maintains a consistent
bass response, tonal balance, and surround-sound
effect at different volume levels, so you can enjoy
the natural dynamics of your content, regardless of
the volume.
PLL (Phase Locked Loop) Jitter-Cleaning
Circuit Technology
Jitter is an unwanted side-effect of the digital-to-
analog conversion process. Caused by fluctuations
in the time domain of a digital signal, jitter has a
detrimental impact on perceived audio quality. PLL
jitter-cleaning circuit technology reduces jitter by
comparing the input and output phases of the digital
signal and creating an accurate clock waveform. This
enhances the precision of digital signal processing
and noticeably improves audio quality. Jitter-cleaning
technology works both for digital signals input via
HDMI and for digital signals converted from analog
signals inside the receiver itself.
Preprogrammed RI Remote Control with
On-Screen Setup and Macro Presets for
Four Activities
The TX-NR708’s remote controller offers the
convenience of controlling a wide range of other
devices connected to the receiver. You can select
your connected devices from the on-screen list and
then pre-program your desired settings for each
device. Furthermore, the TX-NR708 lets you set up
macro presets for up to four activity modes, which
you can control via mode-key LEDs on the remote
controller. A single button-press of “My Movie”, for
example, can simultaneously turn on the receiver,
display, and Blu-ray player to your pre-programmed
settings and start playing a disc automatically.
