Count on Sony's premium ES receivers to bring exceptional audio and video performance to your home theater system. The STR-DA5400ES delivers high-resolution surround sound, including Dolby® True HD and DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks found on some Blu-ray movies. It also provides versatile video switching and superb picture quality from all of your video sources. The '5400ES even lets you enjoy your entertainment, including high-definition video, in more than one room. And like all Sony ES components, this receiver is backed by a full 5-year warranty.
Flexible video connections and maximum picture quality
Six 1080p-compatible HDMI inputs let you hook up your high-definition video sources and switch between them easily. And if your home theater room has an HDTV and a high-def projector, two HDMI outputs provide easy connections. The '5400ES boasts dual Faroudja DCDi Cinema® processors that can upconvert two non-HD video sources simultaneously. This lets you and your family enjoy a crisper, more detailed picture with all your video sources, even when other family members are watching different sources in different rooms at the same time. You can also send HD video to a home video distribution system via the receiver's CAT-5e connection.
Easy and accurate setup
Sony's auto calibration makes home theater setup quick, simple, and accurate. Just plug in the included microphone, place it in your favorite seat, and the 'DA5400ES automatically adjusts the volume and delay settings for each speaker in your home theater. The result is precise, well-balanced home theater sound, custom-tailored for your specific room and speakers.
Cool entertainment options
The STR-DA5400ES's dual Digital Media Ports let you play music stored on your iPod® or PC when you connect an optional Sony iPod dock or wireless PC music player. This receiver is also XM Ready and compatible with XM's HD surround music channels. Or connect an optional SiriusConnect home tuner kit to enjoy SIRIUS satellite programming. Plus you can use Sony's special digital processing mode to enhance the sound of your MP3s and other compressed music files.
Multi-room music, video, and more
Three-room/three-source capability lets you enjoy surround sound in your home theater room while a family member or housemate watches a different video source in a second room, and another listens to stereo music in a third room. An on-screen menu system offers simple, straightforward operation. Its polished graphic interface features easy-to-use menus that don't block the entire TV picture allowing you to control receiver functions on-screen while still viewing your programs. The learning/multibrand remote provides easy control of all your components.
