Multi-Channel A/V Receiver with HDMI, i.LINK and Ready for iPod Photo

 

With 4 HDMI inputs (and 1 HDMI out), the VSX-AX4Si-S is fully capable of handling 1080p video signals; which means you can enjoy everything that high definition audio and video has to offer – from HD broadcasts to the Blu-ray disc films of the (near) future.

The VSX-AXA4Si has a USB input for a direct connection to your PC, as well as an i.LINK terminal for uncompromised digital processing of DVD-Audio and SACD sources. Additionally the VSX-AXA4Si includes a second smaller, intuitive remote control for multi-room use or for simple, daily control of the most used functions.

The VSX-AXA4Si also comes with extended iPod functionality. So you can connect your iPod via a single cable (included with the system) – and play both your music and iPod photos via the receiver.

A distinguishing feature is the system’s Advanced MCACC (Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration), which not only calibrates and optimises the sound output for your home environment, but also neutralises the effects of reverberation – which enables even more accurate tonal measurement and calibration of the frequency balance. Precision tuning of your home system with minimum effort.

Featuring AIR Studios sound tuning and THX Select2 Certification, the VSX-AXA4Si provides advanced listening modes for enhanced playback of a variety of entertainment content, including movies, music or games - guaranteeing the best possible sound.

The VSX-AX2A-S gives you Standing Wave Control (which reduces the standing waves in your room, giving reproduction of low frequencies truer than ever) and Phase Control, which minimises any phase mismatching, calibrating the delay and aligning the phase precisely, to match it for all channels and achieve advanced levels of sonic purity.
