        8. Immersive Audio Formats

        Dolby Atmos

        Integra DRX-7.1 supports Dolby Atmos.

        • Dolby Surround Upmixer: Integra DRX-7.1 supports Dolby Surround Upmixer.

        9. HDMI

        Integra DRX-7.1 comes with 7 HDMI inputs. It has 2 outputs - 1 Main and 1 Sub/Zone2.

        Onkyo TX-NR509 comes with 4 HDMI inputs. It has 1 output.

        • 4K/60Hz Passthrough on Integra DRX-7.1: All inputs pass up to 4K 50/60Hz 4:4:4 video signal.
          1080/60p Passthrough on Onkyo TX-NR509: All inputs pass up to 1080p video signal.
        • Analog To HDMI Upconversion: Integra DRX-7.1 supports analog to HDMI Upconversion, so you can input your analog video sources and output them digitally via HDMI. This means that you will need only one HDMI cable to connect to your TV.
        • BT.2020 Color Space: BT.2020 or Rec. 2020 is a color standard which delivers a wider color gamut compared to Rec. 709. It covers approximately 75% of the total visual spectrum while the Rec. 709 covers only 35% (available on Integra DRX-7.1 only).
        • HDCP 2.2 Copy Protection: Integra DRX-7.1 is HDCP 2.2 compliant which is a requirement for 4K/HDR copy-protected content transmission.
        • 3D Ready: Both receivers are able to pass 3D video through HDMI.

        HDR (High Dynamic Range)

        Integra DRX-7.1 supports HDR10, Dolby Vision and Hybrid Log-Gamma.

        Onkyo TX-NR509 does not support HDR. High dynamic range video has greater dynamic range than standard dynamic range (SDR) video with brighter whites and deeper blacks. The result is greater contrast and more details in dark and bright areas, better color and depth.


        Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC)

        Integra DRX-7.1 supports Audio Return Channel (ARC) which allows the compatible TV to send audio signal to the a/v receiver through the same HDMI cable which is used to send audio and video signals to the TV. So one HDMI cable is used to transfer audio signal in both directions. New Enhanced ARC will support uncompressed audio formats such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio whereas the previous ARC could support only Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, DTS HD, and PCM.

        10. Inputs and Outputs

        Audio

        • Phono Input: There is an MM phono input on Integra DRX-7.1 with built-in phono stage for connecting the moving magnet cartridge output of the turntable directly to the receiver.
        • Analog Pre-Outs: Integra DRX-7.1 has 11.2 and Onkyo TX-NR509 has 2.1 preamplifier outputs which allow you to connect the receivers to the external power amplifiers. You may want to use a high quality external amplifier for certain channels, usually for front L/R and center, and use the receiver to power the rest. Also, Integra DRX-7.1 has 11 channel processing but has only 9 channel amplifier, so it needs external amplifier connected to the analog pre-outs in order to reach its maximum speaker configuration.
        • Analog Line Inputs and Outputs: There are 6 pair of line inputs on both receivers for connecting sources with analog outputs. There is also 1 pair of line outputs on Onkyo TX-NR509.
        • Digital Inputs: 3 optical inputs and 2 coaxial inputs are available on Integra DRX-7.1 and 2 optical inputs and 2 coaxial inputs are available on Onkyo TX-NR509 for digital audio connections.
        • Headphone Output: There is a 6.3 mm (1/4") headphone output jack on the front panel of each receiver.
