RD-8601
Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Receiver with Component
Video Switching, Universal Video Upconversion, Automatic Speaker
Set-Up and On-Screen Display
With most audio brands, you'd expect to pay a lot of
money for a "flagship", top-of-the-line receiver. In fact,
it's possible to spend upwards of $5,000 to get the best receiver
some brands have to offer.
We're not playing that game at Sherwood. For less than one-tenth
that amount we offer our Sherwood RD-8601. It decodes all of Hollywood's
latest movie formats including DTS-ES (both Discrete and Matrix)
and Dolby Digital EX. It has fully adjustable Dolby Pro Logic IIx
to turn broadcast TV, VHS tapes and even 2-channel CD's into 6 channel
magic; Dolby Headphone for amazing private surround listening and
Dolby Virtual Speaker to reproduce full surround effects from only
2 speakers.
With six 100 watt per channel, high current, discrete amplifiers
on board, sound quality for the 8601 is superb. So is ease of use.
The RD-8601 not only has switching for 3 audio/video source units,
3 for audio only and 2 for high-def signals, it is one of the few
receivers in the world with Universal Video™ to change all
video signals to a single component video output. It even offers
automatic speaker set-up, complete with supplied microphone, to
minimize the hassle normally required for initial operation. Control
is possible using the built-in On-Screen Display, from the front
panel or via the 8-unit preprogrammed remote control.
Additional conveniences include the capability for
3 Macro remote command sequences, one-touch operation of Sherwood
DigiLink III components, display dimmer, sleep timer and more.
