Marantz SR8015 11.2-Channel Network A/V Receiver

Featuring discrete power output devices on all channels, the SR8015 is rated up to 140 watts per channel at 8 ohms for a dynamic, precise sound experience.

The main HDMI output supports eARC (enhanced Audio Return Channel) to enable uncompressed and object-based audio transmission directly from your TV to the receiver. A dedicated 8K input supports 8K UHD/60 Hz and 4K UHD/120 Hz video pass-through and upscaling. All HDMI inputs support 4:4:4 Pure Color sub-sampling, Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, HLG, various dynamic HDR formats, and BT.2020 pass-through for augmented color, clarity, and contrast. 8K upscaling (from as low as 480i) and HDCP 2.3 compatibility are available on all HDMI inputs. HDCP 2.3 processing lets you enjoy copy-protected content uninhibited. QMS (Quick Media Switching) is also supported.

Enjoy immersive 3D audio from formats like Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization, DTS:X, and DTS Virtual:X for a 3D soundstage. Dolby Atmos uses dedicated up-firing or overhead speakers to provide height sound effects, while DTS:X and DTS Neural:X use your existing speaker setup to create virtual height channels from more traditional 7.2-, 5.2-, or 2.2-channel arrangements.

DTS:X Pro enables up to 13.2 channels of audio processing with the addition of a separate stereo amplifier to further augment detail. DTS:X Pro is scheduled to be made available via a future firmware update.

These criteria include image, sound, scale, and content quality. Onboard IMAX calibrated modes are set and approved by Hollywood colorists to help provide enhanced picture and sound for HDR UHD content.
