Onkyo Electronics has announced that they will be releasing two new A/V receivers later this year, the TX-SR605 and the TX-S4806, each supporting full DTS-HD Master Lossless Audio and Dolby TrueHD decoding.
Both receivers are the first pieces of hardware capable "of decoding DTS-HD Master Lossless Audio at their full resolution, via HDMI V1.3A connections." Currently, there is no way for the home consumer to enjoy DTS-HD soundtracks on their nex gen HD DVD or Blu ray discs as, at best, current receivers have only been able to extract a standard DTS 1.5mpbs "core" audio stream from DTS-HD-encoded discs.
Both models have been added to the Onkyo website, and you can visit those pages for further technical details.
The TX-SR605 will hit shelves by late May, with a suggested retail price of $599 USD. The higher end THX Ultra 2-c certified TX-S4806 will be released later in the year with a hefty $1099 USD pricetag.
