Sony is releasing three new audio/video receivers for Home Theaters in its “Elevated Standard” (ES) line. They were designed to be an interface for all of our gadgets in the living room. The models STR-DA5300ES, STR-DA4300ES and STR-DA3300ES can receive audio or video from different sources and reproduce them with maximum quality.
They include integration with iPod, streaming files from your computer via Wi-Fi, reception from Bluetooth devices and connectivity with other Sony Network Walkman products, using the Digital Media Port feature sold separately.
The receivers also come with the Corteza Advanced controller featuring a technology that upscales all video sources to 1080p via HDMI.
