Take advantage of the internal decoding of advanced HD audio formats to truly enjoy a full HD viewing experience.

The VSX-919AH AV receiver can upconvert analogue sources to an HDMI signal with up to 1080p resolution. Also, with an HDMI repeater (3 in / 1 out), a single HDMI cable is all you need to transfer both video and audio digitally to the receiver.

This amplifier features an iPod Digital USB connection, that provides direct plug-and-play enjoyment of all tracks stored on your iPod or iPhone, without the need for a docking station (an iPod/iPhone Video + USB audio cable is included).

When connected to a Blu-ray player via HDMI, the VSX-919AH uses proprietary PQLS technology for jitterless transmission, resulting in high-quality sound.

Navigation becomes easy with the receiver's intuitive and fresh looking GUI (Graphical User Interface).
