Sony pays fastidious attention to detail throughout the receiver's design and construction. The STR-DA333ES uses separate digital processors for 24-bit multichannel surround decoding and employs Sony's proprietary 32-bit Digital Cinema Sound modes, which are designed to re-create the listening conditions in actual film-production suites.
The STR-DA333ES's amplifiers crank out 80 watts for each of its five main surround channels, while audiophile-grade parts--including heavy-duty capacitors, heat sinks, and power supply--couple with an antiresonant chassis design to maintain quality throughout the audio signal path.
The receiver is well stocked with audio-video inputs and outputs, including five S-video inputs and four analog audio inputs (including a phono input for your turntable), as well as five digital inputs and a Toslink optical digital output. The included multibrand two-way LCD remote (preprogrammed to operate many brands of audio-video equipment) simplifies operation immeasurably, showing not only current system configuration, but also station names and CD titles.
