Sony's STR-DH800 delivers the full high-def experience to your home theater system. You'll get crisp, detailed picture quality and room-rocking multichannel sound for your movies and TV shows, as well as music and video games. It even includes built-in decoding for Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD™ Master Audio — two high-resolution surround sound formats available with many Blu-ray players and discs.
High-def HDMI switching and simplified system operation
The 'DH800's 1080p-compatible HDMI switching lets you hook up four high-definition video components and switch among them easily, while maintaining crystal clear picture and sound. It can receive high-res audio signals via HDMI, too, which allows convenient single-cable connections to your HDMI-equipped components. Plus, this receiver's HDMI connections will allow simplified one-touch operation with compatible Sony audio/video components. Just press play on the remote, and watch as the receiver, television, and disc player all automatically power up and switch to the appropriate settings.
Easy and accurate setup
Sony's auto calibration makes home theater setup quick, simple, and accurate. Just plug in the included microphone, place it in your favorite seat, and the 'DH800 automatically adjusts the volume and delay settings for each speaker in your system. The result is precise, well-balanced home theater sound, custom-tailored for your specific room and speakers.
More digital entertainment options
The STR-DH800's Digital Media Port lets you add Sony's iPod® dock for versatile digital music playback. Or use Sony's PC adapter for an easy way to send music from your computer to your home theater, via a home Wi-Fi® network. Sony includes a special digital processing mode to enhance the sound of MP3s and other compressed music files. This receiver is also SIRIUS Ready — just add an optional SiriusConnect™ home tuner kit and a SIRIUS subscription to enjoy instant access to your favorite satellite radio channels.
