Reproducing audio visual reality.

Our LX receivers are engineered according to a strict design philosophy that aims to bring studio quality sound to your living room. Using only high-end components – each rigorously calibrated and tuned – the goal is for you to experience film and music just as the creators intended.

The SC-LX82 realises true simultaneous multi-channel high power output, incorporating ICEpower analogue class D amplification and our legacy sound-tuning collaboration with AIR Studios. The additional THX Ultra2 Plus certification makes the SC-LX82 is the perfect home cinema receiver.

This receiver includes our exclusive Advanced MCACC (Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration) system. At the touch of a button, it will measure and analyse the reverb characteristics of your speakers and optimally tune the sound output to your setup.

When connected to a BDP-LX52 Blu-ray player via HDMI, the player and receiver use a unique PQLS Multi-Surround technology for a jitterless transmission, ensuring optimum audio quality: a near perfect reproduction of sound.

Plug and play your iPod or iPhone directly (a cable is included; no dock is necessary). The audio connection is digital, which guarantees transfer without intermediate digital-to-analogue, analogue-to-digital conversions; what you hear is pure.

This receiver is available in Black.
