Onkyo just introduced the TX-SR3100, a 5.2 channel AVR with HDMI 2.1a support that includes resolutions and refresh rates as high as 8K60 and 4K120 as well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X audio formats. In addition to support for Dynamic HDR formats, ALLM, VRR, QFT and SBTM (Source-Based Tone Mapping), the Onkyo TX-SR3100 incorporates Dolby Vision and HDR10+ technology, too.
Other features include:
- AccuEQ Room Calibration: Onkyo says this technology ensures that areceiver and speakers are “perfectly calibrated to the room they’re in, compensating for differences in speaker size and distance, resulting in exceptional audio playback no matter the space you’re in.”
- Vocal Enhancer: The Onkyo TX-SR3100’s technology emphasizes dialogue and vocals by adding the Center element to your Front Left and Front Right speakers.
- Music Optimizer: For audiophiles, the Onkyo TX-SR3100’s Music Optimizer DSP listening mode restores audio files to their original lossless quality, reconstructing data lost during compression.
- Dolby Atmos Height Virtualizer: This technology creates a virtual surround and height effect from traditional speaker layouts, eliminating the need for additional surround or height speakers, and making it feel like sounds are coming from above and far off.
