Description:
It's time for surround sound made easy: say goodbye to drilling holes through floors and taping down cables to hide the messy mechanics of getting sound from the front of the room (your home theater's source components) to the back of the room (your surround speakers). Say hello to wireless simplicity. Incorporating the latest in wireless technology, the DAV-FR10W employs Sony's DIAT (Digital Infrared Audio Transmission System), which transfers digital audio signals--without compression or sonic compromise--from the system's source component to its surround speakers, wherever you place them. You're no longer tethered by cables as you consider your speaker placement options. The compact system features a slot-loading 5-disc DVD-Video/SACD changer with built-in surround-receiver abilities and color-coded speaker terminals, 4 floorstanding speakers (left/right front and surround), a slim center-channel speaker, and a stand-alone subwoofer designed to work in concert with the rest of the components to deliver exhilarating, full-bodied surround sound from DVD, CD, MP3 CD, and Super Audio CD (SACD) music sources. The system's 800 watts (total) are routed through its 7-channel S-Master full-digital amplifier/tuner and enhanced by the Digital Direct twin-drive subwoofer and its dual 6.25-inch woofers. (The amp pumps 114 watts x 5 for front, center, and surround speakers, with 115 watts x 2 for the passive subwoofer). Sony's exclusive S-Master digital amplifier delivers high power and low heat while occupying minimal space--merely 25 percent of the space required by a conventional amplifier. Surround decoding and processing includes Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital EX (6.1), DTS-ES, and Dolby Pro Logic II (which generates discrete 5.1-channel surround sound from any stereo/2-channel source). Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the DAV-FR10W is equipped to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. Choose from progressive-scan component-video outputs, composite-video, or S-video outputs. (Older TVs may require an RF modulator or video switcher to convert composite- or S-video to a threaded RF coaxial jack.) Depending on the disc, SACD music releases provide super high-fidelity multichannel and/or stereo sound, using a high-resolution 1-bit converter to exceed the quality potential found in the standard 16-bit compact disc. The system also offers JPEG image CD slideshows so you can get the most from your favorite digital media right in the comfort of your living room. Enjoy the DAV-FR10W from the repose of your easy chair with the supplied easy-to-operate Remote Commander remote control. Auxiliary connections include secondary composite- and S-video sources for a camcorder, gaming console, or VCR, and a headphone jack for private listening. The DAV-FR10W system's design is sure to be a visual centerpiece. Glazed with a metallic frost, the system will illuminate any room with its slim, elegant speakers and attractive, brushed-aluminum chassis. Using small, unobtrusive transmitters/receptors, the wireless DIAT technology transmits multichannel digital-audio signals through a local area using infrared light as the carrier. It eliminates the need for wires to connect the rear speakers as the signals are beamed directly from front to rear. The DIAT system is not vulnerable to interference by other wireless information or data like that from microwaves and cordless phones. What's in the Box
