As a harmonious blend of technology and tradition, the TX-NR696 adapts to your entertainment life and captures the emotions from every sound source, whether it's music from 3D movies or vinyl recordings. The next-generation network audio features built-in Chromecast, is compatible with Sonos, AirPlay 2, and DTS Play-Fi, and offers streaming services for seamless multi-room audio thanks to support for the new high-speed 802.11ac (2x2 MIMO) Wi-Fi specification. Dolby Atmos and DTS:X immerse the audience deeply in movies and games, while THX Certified Select ensures a cinema-like experience. If a 5.2.2 channel setup is not possible, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualizer and DTS Virtual:X can create a 3D sound field with a horizontal speaker arrangement. Zone-2 outputs bring amplified sound from multiple sources into two rooms, while a flexible New Zone Line-Out/Front L/R preamp connection allows you to enjoy sound however and wherever you like. With a revitalized DAA system, 4K/60p/HDR HDMI connections, and many extras, this product excels in every way.
