Quality Home Theater Is Now Within Your Reach

Targeting the sweet spot where affordability meets superb functionality, the TX-NR609 looks set to be another Onkyo classic. This THX®

Select2 Plus™Certified A/V receiver handles content from all your favorite disc-based media, as well as networked audio content from the

internet, iPod®/iPhone®, and PC. Six HDMI®inputs—including one on the front panel—provide support for 3D video and ultra-high resolution

4K video upscaling via Qdeo™technology. HDMI also carries master-quality audio formats from Dolby and DTS, as well as the expanded

surround sound of Audyssey DSX™and Dolby®Pro Logic®IIz. Three-stage inverted Darlington circuitry and Onkyo’s proprietary WRAT ensure

a clean and compelling amplifier performance. And when audio signals are output, the 7.2-channel configuration includes twin subwoofer

pre-outs for added bass impact. Meanwhile, a user-friendly on-screen display and GUI make it easy to adjust settings and navigate your content.

All this and more makes the TX-NR609 an irresistible choice for the value-seeking home theater fan.

TX-NR609 7.2-CHANNEL NETWORK A/V RECEIVER

HDMI®Support for 3D Video and Audio

Return Channel

The six HDMI inputs on the TX-NR609 let you

simultaneously connect high-def sources such as a Blu-ray

player, a gaming console, and a cable/satellite tuner. A single

output then sends a pristine signal to your connected high-

resolution display. The HDMI implementation on this

receiver supports both 3D video and an Audio Return

Channel, along with numerous high-resolution formats. 3D

video brings exciting possibilities to home entertainment,

with movie, game, and broadcast content on the increase

and 3D-compatible TVs now on the market. Meanwhile, the

Audio Return Channel allows audio content received

directly by your HDTV’s tuner to be sent “upstream” via

HDMI to your A/V receiver, without the need for a

separate S/PDIF audio cable.

Network Capability Delivers Internet Radio and

Network Audio Streaming via Ethernet

As one of Onkyo’s new breed of receivers that can link

directly to the internet or to your home PC via a local

network, the TX-NR609 takes streaming audio and internet

radio to a whole new level. MP3, WMA, WMA Lossless,

FLAC, WAV, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, and LPCM audio files can

now be played back through your main system with

unprecedented power and fidelity. The TX-NR609 also

brings to life a huge array of internet radio channels from

vTuner, SIRIUS XM Internet Radio®, Mediafly, Pandora®, and

Slacker™, plus on-demand music streaming from Napster

and Rhapsody*. As well as being compatible with earlier

platforms, the receiver is compatible with Microsoft’s

Windows®7 platform, which includes the DLNA

1.5-specified “Play To” media-streaming feature. The

TX-NR609’s internet connectivity has the added benefit of

making firmware updates simpler than ever.

* Availability of internet radio and music streaming services depends on region.

Onkyo Remote App for iPod/iPhone*

Available as a free download, this app lets you use your

iPod touch or iPhone as a remote controller to control a

range of functions on the TX-NR609. As well as letting you

select internet radio stations, it also lets you select

streaming audio input from a DLNA-compatible server. The

Remote App also enables you to perform basic playback

operations and control the receiver’s volume with an

interface that uses the iPod/iPhone’s built-in accelerometer.

*Compatible iPod/iPhone models: iPod touch 3rd generation or later; iPhone 3GS or

later. (All models require iOS 4.2 or later.)

Direct Digital Connection of iPod®/iPhone®via

Front-Panel USB Port

The TX-NR609’s front-panel USB port lets you access

MP3, WMA, WMA Lossless, FLAC, WAV, Ogg Vorbis, and

AAC audio files stored on a USB flash drive or iPod/iPhone.

As the audio signals are transported in digital form, rather

than analog, there is much less chance for signal

degradation. End result: your music sounds cleaner and

more faithful to the original. A further benefit of the USB

input is that it lets you use the system’s remote controller

to play back audio files on the connected device.

THX®Select2 Plus™Certified

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 had to meet the

world’s most demanding standards for home theater audio

quality and performance, and play at reference volume

levels with minimal distortion.

4K Video Upscaling and Processing via Qdeo™

echnology

The TX-NR609 offers full 4 (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 high-quality Qdeo technology from Marvell.

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 wide-screen

display, your Blu-ray Discs and DVDs will look more

detailed and cinematic than ever.

Audyssey DSX™and Dolby®Pro Logic®IIz Add

Expanded Dimensions to Surround Sound

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 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.

Three-Stage Inverted Darlington Circuitry

Three-stage inverted Darlington circuitry is a core Onkyo

technology that brings greater efficiency to the TX-NR609.

It incorporates a low-NFB design to remove distortion and

enhance the natural character of audio signals. Sensitive to

oscillations, this circuitry requires very advanced control

technology in order to be incorporated into the amplifier.

Overlaid Graphical On-Screen Display and GUI

Navigation

Changing the TX-NR609’s settings is a seamless affair,

thanks to the receiver’s overlaid graphical On-Screen

Display (OSD). Set-up menus appear overlaid on the video

image you’re watching, so you don’t have to switch to a

blank screen background. Meanwhile, a new GUI lets you

smoothly navigate internet radio and iPod/iPhone contents.

The OSD and GUI both operate over HDMI, making

excellent use of that versatile interface.
