Zone B mode is line-level only and supports encoded or PCM signals (all inputs) in MAIN and Zone B.
Dirac Live® Room Correction
Onkyo TX-RZ50 Dirac Live analyzes your audio system and listening environment by examining acoustic data measured with a setup mic. It corrects both the timing and amplitude aspects of sound coloration using a mixed-phase correction filter throughout the listening area, not just a particular zone. Correction is performed automatically using a proprietary app for smartphone or tablet*. Dirac Live improves staging, localization, clarity, voice intelligibility, and bass response. * Mobile device and AVR must be connected to the same local network.
Flexibility for customized setups
Connect an external power amp or motorized projector screen via the AVR’s 12 V trigger output and power them up automatically with your AVR, with CEC performing the same task for media players over HDMI. An IR repeater input lets you conceal the AVR away from the screen, ideal for bespoke theaters. Ethernet and RS-232 terminals integrate the AVR into your automation system, with the former supporting setup and web browser control via PC.

Audio most commonly refers to sound, as it is transmitted in signal form. It may also refer to:
A home, or domicile, is a space used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for one or more human occupants, and sometimes various companion animals. It is a fully- or semi-sheltered space and can have both interior and exterior aspects to it. Homes provide sheltered spaces, for instance rooms, where domestic activity can be performed such as sleeping, preparing food, eating and hygiene as well as providing spaces for work and leisure such as remote working, studying and playing.
Physical forms of homes can be static such as a house or an apartment, mobile such as a houseboat, trailer or yurt or digital such as virtual space. The aspect of 'home' can be considered across scales; from the micro scale showcasing the most intimate spaces of the individual dwelling and direct surrounding area to the macro scale of the geographic area such as town, village, city, country or planet.
The concept of 'home' has been researched and theorized across disciplines – topics ranging from the idea of home, the interior, the psyche, liminal space, contested space to gender and politics. The home as a concept expands beyond residence as contemporary lifestyles and technological advances redefine the way the global population lives and works. The concept and experience encompasses the likes of exile, yearning, belonging, homesickness and homelessness.

The company became bankrupt in 2022; the Onkyo brand now does business under joint ownership by Sharp Corporation and Voxx International.
TX, T-X, or Tx may refer to:

I had Onkyo TX-NR656 which was replaced with Yamaha TSR-700 before. While former sounded harsh and weird latter was flat and dull and both definitely missed punch especially for rock music. This beast sounds great out of the box, both fronts and subs got so much more punch that I was blown away. Sound is well balanced and rich with my RP-8000F’s and dual SVS Micro 3000’s. Looking forward to further improve sound with Dirac. Thanks to Audio Advise for getting me RZ50 much sooner that anticipated shipping date.
