Product Description
The Kenwood VR-8060-S is ready to take your home theater up to the next level of performance! Six 100-watt amplifier channels have the power to play film soundtracks at realistic theater levels, while its K-STAT power transistors (a Kenwood exclusive) self-adjust to give you optimum sound quality at all times. A 32-Bit ADI SHARC DSP processor gives the VR-8060-S incredibly accurate performance at all signal levels, from the loudest explosion to the most delicate musical passage. The receiver's sixth amplifier channel drives a surround back speaker for the latest 6.1-channel Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES 96/24 soundtracks, and Dolby Pro Logic IIx creates an incredible 7.1-channel experience with ordinary 2-channel sources like CDs, VHS tapes and even FM radio. Active EQ tailors the receiver's response to bring the best sound out of whatever type of speakers you have (full-range, satellites, etc) and the type of program you're listening to (Movies, Music, or TV). The VR-8060-S has connections for 8 different audio components (including a turntable and a DVD-Audio player) and features Component and S-Video Connections for maximum video quality. Video up-converting from composite to S-Video simplifies connections and operation. The included Universal Pre-programmed Remote controls the receiver, your TV, VCR, DVD player, cable or satellite tuner, and select audio components.

The 6.1-channel Kenwood VR-8060-S is loaded with the high-end surround-sound processing features Dolby Digital EX for delivering up to six, independent soundtrack channels and DTS-ES (Discrete, Matrix, Neo:6) to take advantage of the latest in digital audio and video. For listening to ordinary 2-channel sources like CDs, VHS tapes and even FM radio, Dolby Pro Logic IIx creates realistic 7.1-channel surround sound. The VR-8060-S sends 100 Watts into each of six channels, while its K-STAT Discrete Audio Amplifier, a Kenwood exclusive, helps to ensure the highest possible signal purity for better sound without interference. A 32-bit ADI SHARC DSP processor gives the VR-8060-S incredibly accurate performance at all signal levels. DSP (digital signal processing) simulates different environments to make audio a more life-like listening experience. A full complement of AV inputs/outputs (including component and S-Video, four digital inputs, and a digital output) makes it easy to connect all of your digital and analog components. Plus, the 8060-S has video up-converting from composite to S-Video that simplifies connections and operation by eliminating the need for separate audio and video cables.
The VR-8060-S has full digital bass management letting you set up your system so that deep bass gets sent only to the speakers made to handle it, reducing distortion and increasing dynamics.
The included universal pre-programmed remote controls the receiver, your TV, VCR, DVD player, cable or satellite tuner, and select audio components. And with direct input source selection you can go directly to the component you want to use without having to scroll through each individual input.
