BREATHTAKING SOUND
Top quality components
To guarantee the A8A's performance, it uses the concept, architecture and materials of the CX/MX-A5200. The double structure of the base plate dampens unwanted vibration and the thick copper foil of the circuit board lowers the impedance. This AV receiver also features a custom capacitor and 11-channel support.
High-quality digital components
The Qualcomm QCS407 circuit, combined with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support, takes the surround sound of your AV receiver to a completely new level. Two SABER ES9026 PRO-DA converters minimize all noise and boost even faint sounds and produce an excellent signal-to-noise ratio and professional-level dynamic sound reproduction.
