THE FEATURES OF EVOLUTION
NET-TUNE
Do you have MP3, WAV, or WMA audio files on your com-
puter? Now you can add new life to your existing content
and enjoy it in glorious surround sound. With ONKYO’s
exclusive line of network-ready receivers connected to
your computer via a broadband router, you can easily
access all your computer’s music files. Simply download
Net-Tune to your PC and through the Net-Tune Central
application, you’re ready to truly fill your room with music.
If you’ve already upgraded to a broadband Internet con-
nection, then there are even more possibilities for you.
Feel the urge to hear pop music from around Europe or
the latest songs soaring up the Asian charts? How does
instant access to radio stations around the world grab you?
Well, it’s possible through the mini-revolution in the music
world called Internet radio. The process is simple. Hook-up
your receiver to a router connected to your broadband
modem via a high-speed Ethernet cable. Press the Net
Audio button on the front or on your remote, and you’ll be
enjoying a new world of music in your home.
VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry)
Conventional D/A conversion methods reduce digital pulse
noise at the conversion stage but can’t remove it com-
pletely. Digital-to-analogue converters (DACs) and surround-
ing circuitry inevitably taint the analogue signal with pulse
noise. This pulse noise is transmitted along with the ana-
logue signal and out to your speakers for a harsher sound
signal than you should have to endure.
ONKYO’s VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry) employs
a custom D/A conversion circuit to overcome this problem.
Data is converted between sampling points. The first
sampling point is compared to the following sampling point
via the Signal Comparison Generator, and the difference
is then fed back to the Vector Generator. This process is
carried out in a continuous loop throughout the duration
of your usage. These points are joined with analogue
vectors in real-time to produce a smooth output wave
form. The result–a smooth analogue signal based on the
digital source, virtually free of the tainting pulse noise,
which brings out even the most subtle of nuances in your
music, movie soundtracks and even MP3s!
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
The World of digital connection for consumer products has been
elevated to the next level with a groundbreaking, all-digital con-
nection that goes by the name of HDMI. While the name may be
imposing HDMI simplifies wiring by doing away with the myriad
cables required for a state-of-the-art home entertainment system.
Unparalleled amounts of uncompressed data–not only video but
audio as well–can be streamed to digital devices. Up to 5 Gbps–
more than twice the 2.2 Gbps needed for an HD movie with
surround sound–with plenty of room left over for what the future
holds from a single cable. Convenient. One HDMI cable has
the ability to replace audio and video cables giving you a single
connection between your digital components. HDMI is also the
first interface able to support every high-definition video–NTSC
and PAL, from 480i to 1080p–and audio–DTS, Dolby Digital,
PCM, etc.–format. There is even backward compatibility with
DVI devices. Quality. By keeping everything in the digital realm,
there are no unnecessary digital to analogue conversions with
HDMI. With technology shifting to digital displays such as plasma
and LCD, a lossless digital signal streamed to these devices
will ensure you get the crystal-clear picture you’ve been waiting
for. Protection. Uncompressed, high-quality digital signals are a
boon for consumers but a concern for content providers. HDCP
encrypton provides security for high-definition content being
sent digitally between HDMI products paving the way for a truly
digital future. HDMI–Your connection to the future–Today.
I.LINK (a.k.a. IEEE 1394)
The promise of DVD-Audio–5.1 channels of up to 96 kHz/24-bit or
2 channels of 192 kHz/24-bit encoding–and Super Audio CD–with
a frequency response of up to 100 kHz and a sampling rate of
2.822 MHz–was an elation to music lovers around the world. Next
came the crash to earth with the realization that analogue cables
(up to six of them no less) would still be needed as transport. It
was soon recognized that these sophisticated multi-channel re-
cordings, with quality of sound never realized before, would require
a new method of transmission to bring out their true potential.
This has arrived with i.LINK connectivity. The simplification and
at the same time expansion of your audio experience is made
possible with a high-bandwidth, high-resolution transfer of audio
signals via a single cable. Even better, the content stays purely
digital as the digital to analogue conversions of the past are gone.
i.LINK–the new standard for the digital transmission of audio.

FOR ULTIMATE CONTROL–THE LAST REMOTE
YOU’LL EVER NEED
That’s a bold statement, but when you can back it up with a
technological marvel like this remote control, we’re confident
you’ll agree. From the moment you lay eyes on the remote,
you’ll realize it’s something to behold. And when you hold it,
you’ll know it’s much more than ordinary. Graced with an alu-
minium front panel and a design perfectly matched to the
contours of your hand, you’ll find it hard to put down. And
when it’s in your hand, control is truly yours. The main but-
tons are logically located in the centre–something more than
a few companies have yet to realize–for one finger control.
And when you press those buttons you’ll notice the advan-
tages over soft, “gummy” ones. Smart? Well let’s just say
this remote has gone to the head of the class with codes
from most manufacturers already preprogrammed, and in
the unlikely event you need one not included, there’s learning
capability added so you can do away with “remote clutter”
and use this to control all your compatible components. Not
enough? Well we’re not stopping there. When you want direct
access to your TV, buttons at the top let you control the
channel and volume without a search. With Macros, you can
customize the remote to your individual needs by program-
ming a series of operations into a single button. We also
took into consideration the importance of entertaining in the
dark and not wanting to waste time searching for a button.
Backlit with a soft luminescence, low-light operation has
never been easier. So now, sit back, pick up your remote
and with the push of one button, it can be lights, camera,
action–just remember to put it back down occasionally!

At ONKYO, our mission is simple–the definition and redefi-
nition of what A/V components should sound like. In doing
this, over the last 50 years we’ve built a reputation for
the finest sounding products. And when your name means
“sound” in Japanese, there’s quite a burden to shoulder.
The burden is not sound that can be simply rated in watts
or a number on the volume display. The true test is sound
that can be felt when you close your eyes and relax–when
you listen to the subtlest opera or to thunderous space
battles. To describe our unique sound in Japanese, we’ve
coined the term “Kai On Shi-Tsu.”
The cumulative result of innovations like WRAT (Wide
Range Amplifier Technology), VLSC (Vector Linear Shaping
Circuitry) and other sound-enhancing exclusives that only
ONKYO can give you. Translated “Kai On Shi-Tsu” means,
“Sound Harmony.” We’re sure you’ll agree it’s the best
sound you’ve ever heard–and felt.
THX ULTRA2 CERTIFIED
For more than a decade, THX Certification has set the highest
standard for home cinema equipment. The TX-NR5000E
features the highest level of THX quality assurance with
THX Ultra2. Uncompromising sonic reproduction for movies
is provided by THX Ultra2 Cinema. Musical enjoyment is
brought to previously unmatched levels with THX MusicMode
and low frequencies are given a boost through Boundary
Gain Compensation (BGC).
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
The TX-NR5000E incorporates the latest in interface techno-
logy with the addition of HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface) capability. This high-bandwidth interface conveys
not only remarkable amounts of uncompressed digital video
but audio as well. Up to 5 Gbps of data, more than twice
what’s needed for a high-definition movie with surround sound,
can be handled with room for future requirements. And
all this data is kept in the digital domain as there are no
D/A or A/D conversions needed, something that guaran-
tees the highest sound and video quality available.
