Description:
DVD has taken home theater to unprecedented levels of picture clarity. Now you can bring new levels of sound performance to your living room with Onkyo's HT-S660B home theater sound system. Onkyo has matched a 5.1-channel Dolby Digital/DTS/Dolby Pro Logic II audio/video surround receiver with a complementary 5.1-channel speaker package featuring two-way front, center-channel, and surround speakers paired with an earth-moving 150-watt subwoofer. The result is the simplest way to get the most from your DVD player's audio circuitry--from standard DVD-Video players as well as from DVD-Audio- and SACD-capable models--and discover what home theater is really all about. The surround receiver is designed to deliver as much as 100 watts of continuous power into five 8-ohm speakers (like those that come with the system) with no more than 0.08 percent THD to fill even most of the largest rooms with dynamic, nuanced sound. The performance of Onkyo's higher-end receivers is available in the HT-S660B at a fraction of the cost of other receivers through the use of shared precision parts and circuit design (such as WRAT, Non-Scaling Configuration, and discrete output stage circuitry). Adding Onkyo exclusives like Optimum Gain Volume circuitry and CinemaFILTER simply brings out the best in your DTS and Dolby Digital-encoded movies and music. The receiver even comes with Dolby Pro Logic II processing to further enhance the listening enjoyment of your two-channel sources. Onkyo has gone to great lengths to take the guesswork out of matching speakers--critical for producing the most seamless, convincing surround-sound reproduction--by assembling a perfectly matched set of drivers. All supplied speakers feature a two-way design with 1-inch balanced dome tweeters and color-coded speaker posts to make setup as easy as possible. Want to integrate the system with your existing stereo speakers? With the subwoofer's handy crossover selector, you can set the sub's upper frequency at 60, 80, 100, 120, or 150 Hz, depending on the lower boundary of your existing speakers' bass extension. This lets you more accurately match the performance characteristics of the subwoofer to your front speakers--as well as to the bass performance of the supplied front left/right speakers as they perform in your room; each position will result in a slightly different audible frequency response. Onkyo's commitment to bringing the most user-friendly designs is evident in the system's color-coded inputs and outputs. Now you'll no longer need to worry about which cable goes to which input or output. Simply attach the color-coded speaker cable to its like-colored input or output for fast and easy connections. Connections include a pair of digital-audio connections (one each optical and coaxial), three stereo (left/right) analog RCA inputs, a set of multichannel RCA analog inputs (perfect for use with a DVD-Audio or SACD player's high-resolution analog outputs), three composite- and S-video inputs, and a pair of stereo analog outputs for use with CD recorders, tape decks, and VCRs. Furthering the system's compatibility with high-res audio sources is the amplifier's exceptionally wide bandwidth (essentially flat out to 100 kHz) and the speakers' high-frequency extension (all but the subwoofer are rated to 35 kHz, well beyond the range of conscious human hearing). What's in the Box Surround amplifier/receiver, two front speakers, a center-channel speaker, two surround speakers, a powered subwoofer, a remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, and all requisite cabling.
