A new generation of A/V receivers Digital home theater continues to advance at breakneck speed. You can listen to upgraded surround sound formats, including Dolby Digital® EX 6.1 channel sound, dts® ES discrete 6.1 and dts Neo6:cinema. You can watch High Definition video from over-the-air broadcasting, cable, satellite, HDV camcorders, HD home videocassette recorders and HD digital video recorders. You can enjoy surround sound from as many as nine speakers. At the heart of the home theater-switching it all, decoding it all and reproducing all the sound-stands the A/V receiver. And this single component is challenged as never before. How do you coordinate and switch all those sources, preserving audio and video in their most pristine form? How do you pack all those channels of amplification in a single chassis and still deliver the quality and power that home theater requires? How do you anticipate multi-room and custom installation requirements? These questions are daunting. And the answers determine the quality and suitability of any modern A/V receiver. The engineers of Sony ES Series don't simply answer these questions. They help drive the technology that brings these questions into being. Thanks in part to this expertise, Sony's ES Series receivers have been praised by equipment reviewers, cherished by home theater enthusiasts and scrutinized by an entire industry. Sony's latest ES Series A/V receivers, particularly the STRDA7100ES, establish an important benchmark in home theater design with three crucial advantages: • S-Master Pro digital amplifiers with 32-bit processing and a new generation of MOS FET output transistors. • HDMI inputs, upconversion, switching and output. • i.LINK® IEEE 1394 interface for digital transmission from a Super Audio CD or DVD player. In this way, our latest A/V receivers carry forward the proud tradition of the Sony ES Series, the Elevated Standard in audio and video.
