Cinema reference sound: THX, IMAX, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X

Dolby Atmos and DTS:X – celebrate a new world of sound

Dolby Atmos and DTS:X translate 3D soundtracks from the studio mixing desk into your room. Sounds are no longer tied to specific channels and can move freely around and above your listeners, putting them right in the middle of the action. The TX-NR7100 supports 5.2.4-channel and 7.2.2-channel speaker layouts.

THX® Certified Select cinema reference sound

THX Certified Select guarantees the same reference volume as a commercial cinema in rooms where the distance between the screen and the seat is approximately 3.5 metres. Certified receivers must pass 2,000 bench tests in 75 categories.

Discover the IMAX® experience

IMAX® Enhanced uses DTS:X® technology optimised for the IMAX signature experience and reproduces the full dynamic range of IMAX cinema mixes. IMAX mode delivers IMAX Enhanced content as intended by the filmmakers. You can stream IMAX Enhanced films or own them on Ultra HD Blu-ray™.

Clearer dialogue at the touch of a button

Vocal Enhancer solves the problem of inaudible dialogue in films and television programmes by using DSP algorithms to boost the voice frequencies in the soundtrack. The effect level can be raised or lowered using buttons on the remote control.

Relax with Stereo Assign Mode

Stereo Assign Mode switches playback from the front speakers to the Height 1, Height 2, Surround or Surround Back speakers (depending on the layout). It is ideal for background playback.

Perfect room acoustics: Dirac Live® room correction

Dirac Live analyses your audio system and listening environment by examining the acoustic data measured by a microphone and identifying any deficiencies. It corrects both the timing and amplitude aspects of sound colouration using a phase-mixed correction filter across the entire listening area, not just in a specific zone. Dirac Live automatically calibrates the sound in your room using a smartphone or tablet application and a setup microphone. Dirac Live unlocks the full potential of your speakers in any listening room, delivering a unique, unadulterated listening experience.

Future-proof 8K video quality and HDMI 2.1 gaming features

Welcome to the 8K Ultra HD experience

The features defined in the HDMI® 2.1 specification enable 8K/60p video playback on your compatible display. In addition to HDR10 and HLG, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision™ formats also optimise brightness, contrast and colour scene by scene or frame by frame. All HDMI connections support HDCP 2.3, while eARC on the Main Out passes encoded multi-channel audio (including Dolby Atmos® or DTS:X) from your compatible TV's tuner, video streaming apps or connected media players to the AVR for amplification. QMS (Quick Media Switching) for films and videos eliminates the delay that can cause a blank screen before content appears. Note: The features defined in the HDMI 2.1 specification, HDR10+ and the described pass-through features are supported on HDMI inputs 1-6, the main output and the sub/zone 2 output in sub mode.

New enhancements for gamers

Transform your gaming experience with 3D surround sound and gain an edge with new gamer-friendly features defined in HDMI 2.1. VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) eliminates lag, stuttering and stuttering for smooth gameplay. ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) optimises latency from source to screen, while QFT (Quick Frame Transport) limits delay for a smoother gaming experience.
