HDMI Active Intelligence The receiver can detect and receive the best possible video and audio signals from all
connected devices - making connection and performance as simple as plugging in a single wire. Sony HDMI Active
Intelligence produces both audio and video through one HDMI cable (sold separately).
Faroudja ® DCDi Cinema™Chipset for Up Scaling to 1080p The IC processor developed by Faroudja and first
used by Sony upscales analog video signals (less than 1080p) to 1080p via HDMI . This chipset reduces image
jaggedness and block noise, while reproducing colors that are closer to the original. The end result is a beautiful and
smooth high definition image.

Xross Media Bar ® Inspired Graphic User Interface An on - screen menu that simplifies the most complex
operations of an A/V receiver for home theater applications. This advanced menu system incorporates icons, an easy
to follow tree system and a blending technique so users know exactly where they are among the various settings while
still watching their main video source (up to 1080i). The menu includes access to DIGITAL MEDIA PORT accessories
(sold separately), which lets you assign HDMI inputs and provides independent A/V sync control for each input. It's
simple. Just pick up the remote and a whole new experience will be revealed.
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration An ideal listening experience is only a button away. Simply place the included
microphone in your listening position, push a single button and speaker position, distance and delays are
automatically calibrated. Sony Digital Signal Processing uses feedback between the microphone and receiver to
optimize sound settings.
