Enjoy spectacles offered by next-generation video standards with HDCP 2.2 support or stream songs around the house with SONOS, FlareConnect ™, Chromecast built-in, DTS Play-Fi® and Apple AirPlay 2.

IMAX ENHANCED: The VSX-LX504 is IMAX Enhanced, certified to produce powerful sound just as the filmmaker has designed and to provide an immersive experience in your home theater.
UPDATING DTS: X AND DTS NEURAL: X SOUND MODES: DTS: X® is the latest generation of DTS audio codec that leverages object-based audio to create new, immersive and interactive audio experiences. By adding an external amplifier, the 9.2-channel AV receiver can be expanded to decode 11 channels and run a 7.2.4-channel audio system. The listener can enjoy the immersive soundscape and incredibly rich and realistic sounds. Other audio codecs, such as PCM and DSD, can be mixed up using DTS Neural: X technology to produce enjoyable 3D surround sound.
DOLBY ATMOS VIRTUAL VIRTUALIZATION FUNCTION: When playing any Dolby format, the Dolby Atmos Hight Virtualizer allows for an even more immersive experience by creating a virtual surround sound and pitch effect with a traditional speaker setup without additional surround or surround speakers.
APPLE AIRPLAY 2: With Apple AirPlay 2 technology, you can effortlessly stream music or podcasts through speakers anywhere in your apartment, using any Apple device or requesting Siri, and everything works perfectly in sync.
DOLBY ATMOS / DOLBY SURROUND UPMIXING: By adding an external amplifier, you can expand the 9.2-channel AV receiver to 11-channel decoding and run the 7.2.4-channel configuration of the latest movie sound platform, the Dolby Atmos® system. You can produce focused sound in soft, curved motions or realistic three-dimensional continuous motion with the top speakers. Other audio codecs, including DTS formats, can now be mixed using Dolby Surround audio and enjoy 3D sound.
COMPATIBLE WITH NEXT GENERATION VIDEO STANDARD: The VSX-LX504 supports HDR10, HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) and Dolby Vision signal transmission. When a compatible source is connected, the latest video standards are displayed on the compatible screen. In addition, all HDMI connections support 4K (60p / 4: 4: 4/24-bit), Wide Color Gamut (BT.2020) and HDCP 2.2 technologies, so there will be no problems upgrading devices to newer versions.
ADVANCED MCACC WITH AUTO PHASE CONTROL PLUS: Advanced MCACC adjusts the sound according to the listening mode and speakers and also creates a clearer sound by suppressing standing waves between walls or ceiling and floor. Up to nine position dimensions can be stored for a wide listening area. Auto Phase Control Plus analyzes the phase difference in real time and automatically compensates for the difference between the LFE and the main signals, providing powerful bass and clear high-frequency sound.
WORKS WITH SONOS: Connect the VSX-LX504 to SONOS Connect and you can play any music or audio source in your Sonos application. You can connect the VSX-LX504 to the same network group as other Sonos devices, or use it separately. The AV receiver turns on automatically and turns on the input as soon as you play music in Sonos.
ENHANCED ZONES 2 AND 3: The VSX-LX504's enhanced feature allows you to use the speakers directly in other rooms without the need for a separate amplifier. On top of all that, the Zone 2 DAC allows you to listen to all digital audio sources.
AREA B OUTPUT FOR WIRELESS HEADPHONES: The VSX-LX504 is equipped with Zone B audio output jacks. The area 2 pre-output can also be used as the area B line output to expand the area A (main area) audio to another location or to the wireless headphones via the transmitter.
CHROMECAST BUILT-IN: The VSX-LX504 comes with Chromecast built-in, so you can use your mobile device to stream your favorite music, radio or podcasts through your speakers. You can control audio anywhere in your home with Chromecast-compatible apps that work on your device - iPhone, iPad, Android phone and tablet, Mac and Windows laptops, and Chromebooks ™. The VSX-LX504 also works with Google Assistant, so you can prompt it to turn up the volume, skip audio tracks, or stop music using a device that uses Google Assistant, such as Google Home.
