Key Features
High-Resolution Audio with Direct Stream Digital (DSD)
Enjoy studio-quality sound thanks to the Direct Stream Digital (DSD) audio codec - designed specifically for High-Resolution Audio. This 1-bit format utilises a stream of very high frequency 1s and 0s to recreate audio waveforms at a higher resolution than conventional codecs. The result is clearer, crisper, High-Resolution Audio quality. The STR-DN850 supports DSD playback via HDMI.
How High-Resolution Audio works
High-Resolution Audio works by converting analogue sound to digital at a higher and more precise rate than CDs. High-Resolution Audio can sample sound at a rate greater than 24bit/96Hz, capturing more details and subtleties, resulting in music that is as real as it gets.
7.2 channels for dynamic surround sound
Bring the power of cinematic sound home with the STR-DN850. For a truly dynamic surround sound setup there's 7.2 audio channels, delivering 150W of power output per channel - so you can connect up to 7 individual speakers. The subwoofer channel lets you connect up to two subwoofers for a more even distribution of bass around your room.
Hear the action all around you with Dolby TrueHD
Experience rich, multichannel audio with Dolby True HD - engineered to deliver 100 per cent lossless sound across movies and music. By enabling bit-rate efficiencies and reproducing near studio-quality sound, Dolby TrueHD is able to deliver unparalleled audio fidelity for Blu-ray Discs, DVDs and downloaded content.
Advanced Digital Cinema Auto Calibration
Enjoy immersive movie sound wherever you choose to sit. Advanced Digital Cinema Automatic Calibration (ADCAC) optimises audio performance to ensure well balanced sound. Use the supplied mic to measure the acoustic properties of your room in relation to where you sit, and the position of your speakers. The system adjusts and tunes sound accordingly, eliminating any weak sound spots to establish a wide, natural sound stage.
See more detail with 4K upscaling and pass-through
Body CopySee four times the detail of Full HD with 4K Ultra HD resolution. The STR-DN1050 upscales Full HD movies and TV programmes closer to 4K Ultra HD quality. See up to four times the resolution of Full HD - 4K Ultra HD brings lifelike detail to whatever you're watching. The 4K pass through feature allows 4K data from a 4K source to 'pass through' the receiver and be displayed on a 4K television or projector.
HDMI, optical digital and AV connectivity
For a flexible home entertainment setup, there's 5 HDMI inputs and 1 HDMI output, as well as optical digital and analogue AV connections. So there's room for your current equipment - including your TV, Blu-ray Disc player, and speakers - plus scope to expand
Premium construction for optimum sound
For optimum audio visual performance, the STR-DN850 uses the highest quality components and design. The rigid steel chassis uses a frame and beam design to reduce external speaker pressure for more focused sound. While a resin-coated circuit board improves structural stability and enables greater output from the power amplifier. The unique heat sink design maximises air intake into the amplifier circuit, helping to withstand unwanted sound pressure - all combining to deliver powerful, refined sound.
HD Digital Cinema Sound
Emulate the exceptional acoustics of the iconic Cary Grant Theatre at home. Developed with Sony Pictures Entertainment, HD Digital Cinema Sound is based on measurements taken at the Cary Grant Theatre - used in dubbing sound for Hollywood movie productions. So you can give every film you watch the Hollywood movie treatment.
NFC and Bluetooth connectivity
To start streaming music wirelessly, simply touch your NFC smartphone or tablet against the STR-DN850 to make a Bluetooth connection. There's no wired connections or complex setup. No NFC? No problem. You can also pair manually with Bluetooth.
