If you're looking for a receiver that will deliver all of THX Surround EX's unbelievable 360° sound, that won't break your bank, then you owe it to yourself to audition the world's first THX Select-certified Surround EX receiver - the TX-DS787. It's boasts an advanced 6.1-channel amplifier that delivers 130 watts (6 ohms) of high-current power to each channel. And unlike other receivers, it lets you experience THX Surround EX without an external amplifier. On top of edge-of-your-seat home theater surround sound, the TX-DS787 also includes Optimum Gain Volume Circuitry for reducing noise and improving dynamic range, preouts for 7.1-channels to upgrade to 7-channel surround sound or increase power, an assignable 12-volt DC trigger (rare at this price) to operate lighting, screens or other custom installations, multiroom/multisource capability to set up and control an additional system in another room, two component-video inputs (1 out) for high-quality video-transfer, four digital inputs (1 out) to accommodate all your digital needs, and a 7.1 multichannel input for DVD-Audio or SACD. Add in THX Select circuitry and Onkyo build-quality, and you've got a receiver that delivers high-end performance without the high-end price.
