Stacked with Options and Versatility—From Multiple High-Definition (1080p) Sources to the iPod, Gaming, and SIRIUS™ Satellite Radio
If you want an idea of where Onkyo’s home theater packages are heading, the HT-S5200 is well worth checking out.Like previous Onkyo 7.1-channel receiver/speaker packages, the HT-S5200 delivers reassuringly hefty amounts of power and all-round performance. And in line with other recent offerings, it’s also perfectly suited for high-definition entertainment in the home: 1080p video takes center stage from sources such as Blu-ray Disc, DVD, HD broadcasting, and gaming. The emphasis is still on Onkyo’s audio prowess, so the HT-S5200 is equipped with three groundbreaking Audyssey technologies that will give you the edge in terms of surround sound.It also features some exciting innovations from Onkyo: a dedicated port that connects the iPod via the Dock for the iPod and DSP modes specifically designed for gaming.

Includes dedicated RI iPod dock (UP-A1L) which supports the following iPods:

  • 4th Gen iPod

  • 4th Gen iPod (color display)

  • iPod Photo

  • iPod video

  • iPod Classic (80, 120 and 160GB)

  • 1st - 4th Gen iPod Nano

  • 1st and 2nd Gen iPod Touch

  • iPhone and iPhone 3G


  • * separate audio connection required
