Great HD isn’t perfect without great sound so you’ll be excited to hear that Onkyo has three new THX certified AV Receivers. Not to take anything away from the first Onkyo 3D ready receivers that started shipping just a few months ago, this new trio is in another class. The TX-NR1008, TX-NR808, and TX-NR708 are all network connected with DLNA 1.5, feature HDMI 1.4a for all your 3D needs, and sport the legendary Faroudja DCDi Cinema scaler which will work wonders on even the lowest quality video. While all three have multi-room capabilities, only the TX-NR1008 has amps to power three rooms, while the 808 can do two and the 708 just includes line outputs for a second zone. The big boy is also the only one to include advanced ISF video calibration controls adjustments for every source. All three will start shipping in July with prices ranging from $899 for the TX-NR708 to $1399 for TX-NR1008. Full release with many more specs after the jump.
