Onkyo, distributed by Videopro in Australia, has released the Onkyo TX-SR3100, a powerhouse in AV technology that aims to revolutionise the home entertainment experience.

The ultimate home entertainment companion, offering a premium, immersive experience that will redefine your enjoyment of movies, music and games, the Onkyo TX-SR3100 is user-friendly and feature-packed 5.2 channel AVR is set to redefine how you enjoy your favourite content.

“With HDMI 2.1a support, the Onkyo TX-SR3100 provides a wide range of video resolutions and refresh rates including 8K60 and 4K120, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X formats give engineers the ability to map sound in three-dimensional space,” Onkyo project leader Akihisa Watanabe says.

“Newly updated sound quality delivers ONKYO’s dynamic sound and content information in fine detail.”

Dolby Atmos and DTS:X formats give engineers the ability to map sound in three-dimensional space, allowing for effects to seamlessly move from speaker to speaker throughout the room. Whether you’re watching the latest blockbusters or revisiting classic favourites, this technology will envelop you in a sonic experience like no other.

With HDMI 2.1a support, the Onkyo TX-SR3100 provides a wide range of video resolutions and refresh rates, including 8K60 and 4K120, along with support for Dynamic HDR formats, ALLM, VRR, QFT and SBTM (Source-Based Tone Mapping). The combination of a 60Hz refresh rate ensures smooth and sharp viewing of high-speed action, while HDMI 2.1a with 8K readiness guarantees that your system is equipped for the clearest and most pristine picture quality available, both now and in the future.

The Onkyo TX-SR3100 incorporates Dolby Vision and HDR10+ technology, which enhances the quality of your favourite content, delivering crisp, clear visuals and dynamic colours right to your living room, while the AccuEQ Room Calibration ensures that your receiver and speakers are perfectly calibrated to the room they’re in, compensating for differences in speaker size and distance, resulting in exceptional audio playback no matter the space you’re in.

The Onkyo TX-SR3100’s Vocal Enhancer technology emphasises dialogue and vocals by adding the Centre element to your Front Left and Front Right speakers. This feature ensures that you catch every word, even during action-packed scenes with explosions or quiet moments in intense dramas, regardless of the volume setting.

For audiophiles, the Onkyo TX-SR3100’s Music Optimiser DSP listening mode restores audio files to their original lossless quality, reconstructing data lost during compression. This feature is particularly valuable for formats such as WMA, AAC and MP3, ensuring you experience the full depth and richness of your music collection.

When enjoying any Dolby format, engage the Dolby Atmos Height Virtualizer for a truly immersive listening experience. This technology creates a virtual surround and height effect from traditional speaker layouts, eliminating the need for additional surround or height speakers, making it feel like sounds are coming from above and far off.
