Keeping it simple is always a good idea if you’ve got your priorities right. And that’s what you get with the HT-S5205: a typically practical home theatre solution from Onkyo. Designed to support high-definition entertainment—taking up to three different 1080p video sources—this package is the ideal complement to your HD-compatible display. A quality video experience deserves comparable audio excellence. That’s why the HT-S5205 boasts a suite of technologies from Audyssey (a leading industry innovator) to give you a tailor-made surround sound experience from all your movies and broadcasts. Music is no afterthought, either. The HT-S5205’s A/V receiver has a convenient front-panel input that you can use to connect your iPod or other MP3 player for playback of digital audio files.
HDMI
™ Pass-Thru* for Connecting up to Three Video Sources for Output to a High-Definition Display
The HT-S5205 takes up to three HDMI video inputs from sources such as Blu-ray Disc players, DVD players, gaming consoles, and set-top boxes, and delivers the output to a compatible high-definition display. Video is passed in its native resolution—right up to 1080p—from Blu-ray Disc, PlayStation® games, or HD broadcasts.
*A separate audio connection is necessary to process multichannel audio.
A Suite of Audyssey Technologies for the Ideal Listening Environment
The HT-S5205 has three Audyssey technologies to help create the most suitable listening environment for your home. (1) Audyssey 2EQ™ Room Acoustic Correction Tailors multichannel audio for your home theatre by correcting problems both in frequency response and in the time domain (where most of the problems lie) for a clear, precise, and natural sound. (2) Audyssey Dynamic Volume™ Maintains the desired listening level for all content while optimizing the dynamic range. (3) Audyssey Dynamic EQ™ for Loudness Correction Solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality at lower volumes.
Four Game Modes for More Thrilling Action
Convenient Front-Panel Audio Input for Portable Devices
You can connect an iPod or other MP3 player to the A/V receiver’s front panel for playback. Your player’s compressed digital music files receive a quality boost thanks to the HT-S5205’s Music Optimizer technology.
Music Optimizer™ to Support Compressed Digital Music Files
While MP3 or AAC files may sound fine on a portable digital player, the limitations of these compressed files can be exposed when played back through a home entertainment system. Onkyo has designed onboard Music Optimizer technology to improve the quality of the compressed audio signals. Compressed music loses a substantial amount of bit information at higher frequencies, so the Music Optimizer technology works to overcome this limitation and enhance audio quality.
A new addition to Onkyo home theater, these four gaming modes create an experience with more realism and impact. You can select from Rock, Sports, Action, or Role Playing Game (RPG) modes to match your gaming content.
