High definition, high power
The LX70 completes your high definition home network. With built-in Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding, you are guaranteed pure, “lossless” quality audio.
The LX70 has been fine-tuned to AIR Studios standards: a hallmark for flawless reproduction of sound It is also THX Select2-certified, meaning that you can expect the best possible sound reproduction using 7 channels, whether you’re watching, listening or playing.
Inside, the power amplifier features bipolar transistors with built-in temperature-compensating circuitry and a sophisticated architecture that ensures each channel always has highly dynamic and distortion-free output.
Expand your home network
The LX70 is DLNA-certified, which means that you can hook it up to your home network, for direct access to all our music files stored on your PC, for example. Amplify your favourite internet radio stations, too. You can also connect your iPod or USB memory stick and enjoy your digital content in your living room.
Optimised audio, suited to your home
The LX70 includes our unique 9-band Advanced MCACC system, which stands for Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration. At the touch of a button, the MCACC will not only calibrate and optimise the sound output for your home environment, but also neutralise the effects of reverberation. Precision tuning of your home entertainment system with minimum effort.
Flexible speaker placement
The LX70 includes a ‘Front Stage Surround Advance’ feature. What this means is that you have the option to place all of your speakers in the traditional 5.1 surround setting around your living room, or with just two speakers alongside your television, output a simulated surround sound environment. This is ideal if you have limited space, or don’t necessarily want an “invasion” of electronics equipment around the room.
One remote control for them all
Included with the LX70 is a learning LCD remote control, which can be programmed to control other remote devices in your home. This means you can have one remote control for most of the devices in your living room.
The system also benefits from HDMI-Control, which means that you can operate its main functions using the remote of your KURO flat-screen TV, for example: a simple, coherent entertainment solution.
