It can decode Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD, and features a music optimiser for artificially improving the quality of compressed MP3/AAC tracks.

The TX-SR806 is the 706’s slightly bigger brother, offering 7 x 180W of power output, an extra HDMI input and THX Ultra2 Plus certification.
