Enjoy a full HD viewing experience with rich sound that complements the images on screen. The VSX-819H is the perfect partner for your Blu-ray Disc player, with built-in 'Dolby TrueHD' and 'DTS-HD Master Audio' decoding. This high performance AV receiver comes with an HDMI Repeater (a single HDMI cable is all you need to transfer both video and audio digitally to the receiver.)

Up to 1080p video signals are supported, as well as 'x.v.Colour' and 'Deep Colour', for vibrant, lifelike colours with smooth gradient transitions.

A digital iPod USB connection 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 and USB audio cable is included). The audio connection is digital, which guarantees transfer without intermediate digital-to-analogue, analogue-to-digital conversions what you hear is pure. When playing music from your iPhone, iPod or other MP3 player, you are guaranteed an enhanced sound.

The 'Advanced Sound Retriever', which upscales the quality of compressed audio to closely match the original source, and the 'Auto Level Control', which compensates for volume fluctuations between songs or sources, both work to deliver a dynamic and full sound.
