Theater is nice but why force your music though all that processing? The Onkyo TX-8522 stereo receiver delivers first rate audio without letting all the extra stuff get in the way and muddy the sound. It all starts with the design. The power transformer is isolated from the rest of the unit and the output stage is similarly discrete.
Then there is the Wide Range Amplifier Technology, which is really a group of technologies that work together to produce a clean sound at any volume. It includes a broader frequency range with minimal noise, perfect for the DVD-audio and SACD formats.
The TX-8522 also embraces today's technology. It’s both iPod and XM ready. The music is calling, isn't it time to answer?
