Calabasas, California, United States
:
DTS,
Inc. (Nasdaq: DTSI), a leader in high-definition audio, today
announced the recent integration of DTS
Neo:X™ audio technology into the world’s first A/V receiver
supporting full 11.1 output capability. Onkyo’s new TX-NR5010 and
TX-NR3010 Network A/V receivers with the DTS Neo:X audio solution
feature 11.1-channel support and customized modes for any listening
experience, offering a comprehensive up-mixing solution with distinct
benefits across a variety of operational modes:
-
Cinema—this mode provides crystal clear dialog and ambient cues to
enhance the movie viewing experience
-
Music—in this mode, expansive sound space adds depth for enhanced
immersion during the listening experience
-
Game—this mode creates strong directionality providing an unparalleled
interactive experience during game-play
“Our new line of home theater receivers—with DTS Neo:X
technology—further demonstrates Onkyo’s ability to integrate imagination
and ingenuity into audio products, remaining true to our tradition of
developing high-quality audio equipment,” said Nobuaki Okuda, president,
Onkyo Sound & Vision Corporation. “As DTS continues to advance the audio
industry by reinventing the listener experience, our collaboration
allows today’s connected consumers to fully embrace amplified,
multidimensional surround sound.”
The Onkyo TX-NR5010 and TX-NR3010 receivers, with nine channels of
amplified output and up to 11.4 analog outputs through pre-outs, not
only deliver an audiophile-grade soundscape, but offers internet
accessibility for users to connect smartphones, tablets and PCs to enjoy
digital media files streaming through home surround sound speakers. As
the world’s first 2.0/5.1/6.1/7.1-to-9.1/11.1 conversion technology
within a single algorithm, DTS Neo:X delivers discrete effects to the
vertical dimension—fortifying events such as planes flying
overhead—while elevating ambient sounds, including thunder or thematic
background music for increased soundtrack depth and realism. The end
result is a unique surround sound experience that the home theater
enthusiast can integrate with existing connected devices to enhance the
audio environment.
Brian Towne, executive vice president and chief operating officer of
DTS, Inc., stated, “Neo:X is the next wave of audio technology and the
latest offerings from Onkyo prove the viability of an unprecedented 3-D
surround sound environment. Together, the Neo:X 11.1 audio solution
transforms the everyday living room into a cinema theater or concert
hall with lifelike audio. Our world-class R&D team continues to create
innovative and cutting-edge technology to continue supporting connected
consumers’ demand for premium audio.”
The Onkyo TX-NR5010 and TX-NR3010 receivers with DTS Neo:X 11.1-channel
technology will be available in July, 2012 through Onkyo dealers at a
suggested retail price of $2299 USMSRP for each. For more information on
