The HT-S5305 package offers an easy springboard into the world of quality home cinema. Driving this 5.1-channel system is a high-value A/V receiver with a fine selection of today’s home cinema technology. For a start, HDMI 1.4—the latest version of this advanced transport—opens up exciting possibilities with the new 3D video format. Using the three HDMI inputs on the receiver, you can connect your favorite input devices—for example, a Blu-ray player, game console, and cable/satellite tuner. In keeping with Onkyo’s enduring audio legacy, the receiver also handles high-definition lossless codecs from Dolby and DTS—a slice of high-end luxury now made affordable. To this, add a handy On-Screen Display function for easy adjustment of settings; four gaming audio modes; and a Universal Port for single-cable connection of peripherals. The accompanying surround speaker package includes a powered subwoofer that delivers deep bass impact without drawing power from the receiver.
