THX® Select2 Plus™ Certified
The TX-NR609 features THX Select2 Plus certification, guaranteeing that it can faithfully reproduce movie content as the filmmaker intended. THX Select2 Plus certification is specified for rooms where the screen to-seat-viewing distance is 10 to 12 feet and the room volume is around 2000 cubic feet. To achieve THX Select2 Plus certification, the TX-NR609 must meet the world's most demanding standards for home theater audio quality and performance, and must play at reference volume levels with minimal distortion.

4K Support Via Marvell Qdeo®
4k
The TX-NR609 offers full 4K (3840 x 2160) upscaling of standard video sources such as 480i/p, 720p, and 1080i/p. Interlaced-to-progressive conversion and scaling are performed by a high-quality Marvell Qdeo® video-processing chip. Qdeo® is a versatile video processor that uses algorithms designed to erase video noise and artifacts such as jaggies and feathering. Played back on a compatible widescreen display, your Blu-ray Discs and DVDs will look more detailed and cinematic than ever.
Direct Digital Connection of iPod®/iPhone® via Front-Panel USB Port
The TX-NR609's front-panel USB port lets audio files stored on your iPod®/iPhone® or USB flash drive. The convenient on screen display lets you see exactly what is playing. As the audio signals are transported in digital form, rather than analog, there is much less chance for signal degradation. The TX-NR609 also incorporates Onkyo's exclusive Advanced Music Optimizer to compensate for lost bit information and improve the quality of compressed audio signals.
End result: your music sounds cleaner and more faithful to the original.

A Suite of Audyssey Technologies for the Ideal Listening Environment
Audyssey Room
(1) Audyssey 2EQ® tailors multi-channel audio for your home theater speaker set-up by measuring three room positions and applying a resolution filter to the satellite speakers to correct for room acoustics.
(2) Audyssey Dynamic EQ® 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.
(3) Audyssey Dynamic Volume® automatically compensates for volume fluctuations in
different audio content (for example, during commercial breaks)
while optimizing the dynamic range.
Audyssey DSX™ and Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz Add New Dimensions to Surround Sound
PLIIz-DSX
The TX-NR609 handles two advanced surround-sound technologies from Audyssey and Dolby that offer exciting new ways to set up the speakers in your home theater system. Audyssey DSX lets you incorporate "front wide" speakers, in place of the usual surround back speakers, to expand the width of the soundstage. Set up at a recommended 6° off center, these channels help to produce a more realistic soundstage and a more immersive listening experience. Alternatively, Audyssey DSX can reconfigure the TX-NR609's surround back channels to deliver "front height" channels. These channels carry ambient, non-directional audio that adds a new vertical dimension to your movies and games. Dolby Pro Logic IIz provides a similar front-height speaker option that likewise works to create a more enveloping home theater experience.
HDMI® Support for 3D Video and Audio Return Channel
The HDMI® implementation on this receiver supports both 3D video and an Audio Return Channel. 3D video brings exciting possibilities to home entertainment, with movie, game, and broadcast content on the increase and 3D-compatible TVs coming to market. The TX-NR609 also offers the convenience of an Audio Return Channel via HDMI. Audio content received directly by your HDTV's tuner can be sent "upstream" to your A/V receiver, without the need for a separate S/PDIF audio cable.

Convenient Overlay On-Screen Display via HDMI®
Changing your A/V receiver's settings is now more seamless than ever, thanks to the TX-SR609's overlay On-Screen Display (OSD) feature. With a simple press of the home button, the on-screen set-up menus appear overlaid on the video image you're watching. This means you can adjust the settings immediately, without having to switch back and forth from a blank screen background.
