Audio Features
5.1ch AV Receiver: The Onkyo TX-NR414 features a 5-channel
amplifier rated at 80 watts (into 8-ohms, at 20Hz-20kHz, with 0.7%, driving 2
channels) and a mono subwoofer preamp output.
WRAT (Wide Range Amplifier Technology): WRAT is based around
a low negative-feedback circuit topology that works to reduce signal noise and
distortion across the frequency range. A "closed ground-loop circuit" design is
employed, in which each circuit has a separate link to the power supply. This
helps to cancel individual circuit noise and keep the ground potential free of
distortion. High Instantaneous Current Capability (HICC) enables WRAT amplifiers
to immediately cancel the speakers' reflex energy and instantaneously send out
the next signal. The same high current better manages speaker impedance
fluctuations, which can negatively affect performance.
H.C.P.S. (High Current Power Supply): Under the
anti-resonant cover of any Onkyo receiver, you'll instantly notice the High
Current Power Supply (H.C.P.S.) transformer. With its huge, isolated power
supply design and high-capacity filter capacitors, it delivers the large amounts
of power necessary for reproducing the wide dynamics of movie soundtracks and
the detail and clarity of your music.
Optimum Gain Volume Circuitry: Optimum Gain Volume Control adjusts the
gain so that less than half the amount of attenuation is needed, ensuring the
signal never comes close to the noise floor. This protects the signal against
noise, resulting in a dramatically clearer sound.
Burr-Brown DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters): This receiver is
equipped with 192kHz/24-bit Burr-Brown DACs to decode and playback
high-resolution recordings with less jitter and clearer sound.
32-Bit Processing DSP: The Onkyo TX-NR414 is equipped with a powerful
and highly accurate 32-bit processing DSP (Digital Signal Processor) for better
surround sound reproduction.
Multi-Channel Decoding Formats: The Onkyo TX-NR414 AV
receiver supports the following multi-channel (Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro
Logic) decoding formats.
- Dolby Digital:
Dolby Digital,
Dolby, Digital EX,
Dolby Digital Plus,
Dolby TrueHD
- DTS:
DTS,
DTS-ES,
DTS-HD Master Audio,
DTS-HD High Resolution,
DTS Express,
DTS 96/24,
- Dolby Pro Logic:
Dolby Pro Logic II
Note: Dolby Digital and DTS listening modes can only
be selected if your audio source is connected to the AV receiver via a
digital audio connection (HDMI, optical or coaxial). Even though the AV
receiver will decode 7.1channel surround sound (via HDMI), it will only
output 5.1ch surround, because it lacks Surround Back channel speaker
outputs.
Onkyo Original DSP Modes: Onkyo's Original DSP Modes,
combined with Dolby Digital/DTS/Dolby Pro Logic processing, produce more
realistic, powerful sound effects for your movie and music sound tracks based on
the type of content and your home theater setup. You can choose from the
following:
- Orchestra: For classical or operatic music.
- Unplugged: For acoustic instruments, vocals, and jazz.
- Studio-Mix: Suitable for rock or pop.
- TV Logic: Adds realistic acoustics to TV shows.
- Game: The receiver offers four different Gaming modes -
RPG, Action, Rock, and Sports.
- All Ch Stereo: Stereo sound from all speakers. Ideal
for background music.
- Full Mono: All speakers output the same sound in mono.
- Theater-Dimensional (T-D): Theater-Dimensional
circuitry takes the complexity out of conventional surround-sound setups and
lets you experience the excitement of surround sound from as few as two
ordinary speakers. Theater-Dimensional's unique multi-speaker modes let you
place up to five speakers conveniently by the TV, for the most realistic
virtual-surround sound possible.
Direct Mode: In Direct mode, audio from the input source is
output without surround-sound processing. This mode delivers pure sound with
minimum sound quality adjustment and filtration.
Surround Parameters: The Onkyo TX-NR414 lets you tweak and
fine tune specific surround sound modes to suit your preference.
- Dolby Pro Logic II Music Settings: While listening in
the Dolby Pro Logic II Music format, there are three further enhancements
you can adjust; Panorama: (broadens the front stereo image to the surround
speakers to provide a wraparound effect), Dimension (allows you to move the
sound field forward or backward), and Center Width (allows you to adjust the
width of the center channel).
- Center Image: In the Neo:6 Music mode, the Center Image
feature adjusts the output of the left and right channels relative to the
center channel, allowing you to make the center channel more or less
dominant as needed. This improves the image of the center channel,
especially when the listener is off-center. Adjustment varies from 5
(nothing subtracted from the L/R channels) to 0 (L/R channel output is cut
in half).
- Listening Angle: While listening in the Theater
Dimensional mode you can adjust the listening angle to either Wide (if
listening angle is 40°) or Narrow (if listening angle is 20°).
Speaker Setup: The Onkyo AV receiver allows you to manually
setup your system's speaker configuration.
- Speaker Size: You can set Large or Small for your front
speakers; Large, Small or None for your surround and center speakers; and
Yes or No for subwoofer.
- Speaker Distance: The front speaker distance can be set
from 1 to 30' in 1' increments. The center and subwoofer settings can be up
to 5' more or 5' less than the distance you set for the front speakers (30'
max). The settings for the surround left and right speakers are each
individually adjustable, and they may be adjusted up to 5' more or 15' less
than the distance you set for the front speakers (30' max).
- Adjustable Crossover: This receiver has a built-in
high-pass crossover for any of the speakers set to Small. This setting is
available when the subwoofer is set to Yes. The frequencies that you can
choose from are 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, 120, 150, and 200 Hz. Frequencies lower
than the set crossover point are output by the subwoofer.
- Speaker Levels: You can manually adjust the level of
individual speakers between -12dB and +12dB; -15dB to +12dB for the
subwoofer.
Bass & Treble: You can independently adjust the Bass (50Hz)
and Treble (20kHz) of the TX-NR414 from -10 to +10 dB.
CinemaFilter: Using the CinemaFilter you soften overly bright movie
soundtracks. Movie soundtracks are typically mixed for a large theater (relative to your
home theater) with lots of soft seats and thick curtains on the walls. Home theater
settings often lack these high frequency absorbing wall treatments, making the soundtrack
sound too bright. CinemaFilter accounts for this and for many movies sounds more natural
at home.
Music Optimizer: The Music Optimizer function enhances the sound
quality of compressed music files. The Music Optimizer function only works with PCM
digital audio input signals with a sampling rate below 48kHz and analog input signals.
Late Night Feature: The Late Night feature limits the dynamic
range of Dolby Digital recordings. Limiting the dynamic range makes it easier to
find a volume that ensures the quiet sounds are not too quiet and the loud sounds
are not too loud for night time listening. This allows you to comfortably listen
to without the need to constantly adjust the volume to keep from waking family/neighbors.
The choices are: Off, Low, and High. This feature only works
with Dolby Digital Encoded software and the depth
of the feature will vary based on the individual
software package.
Audio Inputs/Outputs: The Onkyo AV receiver offers a variety
of analog and digital audio inputs/outputs.
- Assignable Digital Inputs: The Onkyo receiver is equipped
with two optical digital inputs and two coaxial digital inputs. All four digital inputs
are assignable. You can choose auto decoding , PCM, or DTS for the digital audio
inputs. Auto will decode the signal in its original form (Dolby Digital, DTS,
PCM, etc), PCM decodes the signal to 2-channel, while DTS decodes only DTS
formatted sources.
- Binding-Post Speaker Terminals: There are color-coded
binding-post terminals for all speaker connections - Front, Center,
and Surround. The binding post terminals will accept bare-wire, pin-connectors,
and banana plugs (single/dual).
- Headphones: When headphones are plugged into the full-size
1/4" jack on the front panel, all the speakers are automatically muted. When you
connect an iPod or iPhone to the USB port on this receiver, no sound will be
output from the headphone jack.
Video Features
HDMI (v1.4): The TX-NR414 has six assignable HDMI v1.4
inputs and one HDMI v1.4 output for connecting Blu-ray/DVD players,
Satellite/Cable boxes, Game Consoles,
and other video components to your TV. The receiver's HDMI
circuitry allows the receiver to output an HDMI audio signal from its speaker
outputs, headphone out, and HDMI out so you don't have to run and additional
analog or digital cable. The HDMI inputs can accept and switch 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video signals to
a HDTV. The HDMI inputs will support uncompressed standard or
high definition digital video along with the following audio signals: 2-channel
linear PCM, Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1ch), and Bitstream (Dolby
Digital/DTS, etc.). Each HDMI input is
assignable.
3D-Compatible: The TX-NR414's HDMI v.1.4 connections will accept 3D
video from your 3D-ready Blu-ray player and output the video signal in 3D to
your 3D-ready flat-panel television.
x.v.Color: The AV receiver supports x.v.Color, offering a
wider color range than the current broadcast standard. For the x.v.Color feature
to be useful, the entire video production chain must be compatible
(camera-editing-format-player-display).
Deep Color: The Onkyo receiver also supports Deep Color
which allows the color depth of video signals passing through HDMI to be raised.
The number of colors that could be expressed by 1 pixel was 24 bits (16,777,216
colors) with a standard HDMI jack. However, the number of colors which can be
expressed by 1 pixel is 36 bits with a Deep Color enabled HDMI jack. Since the
gradation of the depth of a color can be expressed more finely with more bits,
continuous color changes can be more smoothly expressed. For the Deep Color
feature to be useful, the entire video production chain must be compatible
(camera-editing-format-player-display).
HDMI Through: When enabling the HDMI Through function,
regardless of whether the AV receiver is "on" or in "standby" both audio and
video streams from an HDMI input will be output to your television, via the
receiver HDMI monitor output. You can select between 3 HDMI Through functions
modes:
- Auto: Detects the signal and automatically selects the
input sources.
- Source: Selects the input source (BD/DVD, VCR/DVR, CBL/SAT,
Game, PC, Aux, TV/CD, Port) for which the HDMI Through function in enabled.
- Last: The HDMI Through function is activated on the
input source selected at the time of setting the AV receiver to the
"standby" mode.
ARC (Audio Return Channel): This feature allows audio to be
sent from your compatible HDTV to your receiver through the same HDMI cable
already being used to send audio and video to your HDTV. This eliminates the
need for extra cables connected to your television.
InstaPrevue: InstaPrevue technology provides a live video
thumbnail of the available content on your devices connected to the receiver via
HDMI. As a result, you can preview audio/video streams coming from up to 5 HDMI
inputs previously assigned to input selectors on your HDMI connected TV. Even
with multiple components connected to receiver through HDMI, you can easily
switch between inputs as their previews are displayed on a single screen on your
television. You can even use the InstaPrevue feature for Picture-in-Picture. You
can specify the number of preview thumbnails, as well as their positioning
on-screen.
Note: If no video signal are present, the thumbnails
will be filled in black. With 3D video signals, the image may not be
properly rendered on the preview thumbnails of InstaPrevue.
Auto Lip Sync: The Lip Sync function can automatically
synchronize HDMI audio and video that has gotten out of sync due to the
complex digital video processing being performed by your HDMI-compatible TV.
With HDMI Lip Sync, the audio delay required to synchronize the audio and
video is calculated and applied automatically by the AV receiver.
A/V Sync Control: Occasionally, you may need to manually
adjust the audio/video signals that are not
properly synchronized manually. Typically when using a progressive scanning DVD player. You
can correct this by delaying the audio; options are 0 (no delay) to 400 milliseconds,
in 20 millisecond steps.
Component Video: There are 2 component video inputs and 1 component video output. The
component video inputs and outputs have a bandwidth of 5Hz to 100MHz.
Front-Panel AV Input: The Onkyo TX-NR414 is equipped with a
front-panel audio/video input which consists of a composite video terminal and
stereo audio RCA jacks.
