Onkyo Debuts TX-SR506 & TX-SR576 Entry-Level A/V Receivers

Onkyo has introduced two entry-Level A/V receivers, the 80W per channel TX-SR576 and 75W per channel TX-SR506. These are the lowest priced receivers ever to include the company's Powered Zone 2 capability and front channel bi-amplification features, and are among the first receivers available anywhere to include Audyssey's new Dynamic EQ loudness correction technology. Each receiver includes three HDMI inputs v1.2a for the TX-SR576 while the TX-SR506 does only pass-through, Audyssey 2EQ automatic room correction, and also mark the company's first implementation of its new Music Optimizer software, which improves fidelity for MP3 and AAC encoded digital music sources.

The Onkyo TX-SR506 and TX-SR576 will be available in April at $379 and $479 each, respectively.
