Get the sound that your big-screen TV deserves, with the Dolby Atmos and DTS:X equipped Sony STRDH790.

Dolby Atmos and DTS:X for three-dimensional sound
Dolby Atmos uses two ceiling or upwards firing speakers (5.1.2 mode) to produce a multi-dimensional, immersive sound that's a match for the finest cinemas. DTS:X literally pushes the boundaries of what you can expect from home cinema. It renders images in three dimensions that conventional processing can't match. It also easily adapts to your existing speaker configuration. If you prefer conventional surround sound, the Sony STR-DH790 also operates in 7.2 surround mode.

DCAC for superior audio
Advanced DCAC uses Automatic Phase Matching to align the phase of your speakers. This means you don’t need to use the same speaker on all channels for perfectly seamless sound. Simply let DCAC analyse the sound and match all the speakers to the front left and right channel’s characteristics.

Optimised for 4K UHD and HDR
The STRDH790 features flexible HDMI connectivity on all four inputs. It supports HDCP 2.2 and HDR, which means you, can play UHD Blu-ray discs and stream UltraHD video in the highest quality. The HDMI sockets allow 4K pass-through, for hassle free switching and viewing without the receiver needing to be turned on.

Music streaming and more via Bluetooth
When you’re not watching movies, this flexible Sony is just as happy streaming music from your smartphone or tablet. Simply connect via Bluetooth and enjoy your stored music and favourite streaming services such as Spotify and Deezer. A neat extra function is the ability to power the receiver on from your smartphone, too.

High-Resolution audio compatible
As well as offering room-shaking power, the Sony STRDH790 is also compatible with High-Resolution Audio. This offers a sound that's far more natural sounding than standard audio. The STR-DH790 also supports DSD formats – with a sampling frequency that’s 64x that of conventional CD, for stunningly detailed sound.

Sleek design
With a height around half that of some traditional AV receivers, the Sony STR-DH790 is much better suited to modern day living. The compact casing makes it easy to fit in shelving units and cabinets. With Sony’s typical attention to detail, the clean styling also make this Sony more attractive than many other button-heavy receivers.

Turn your front room into a cinema, with the Sony STRDH790.

”Wharfedale’s smallest home cinema speaker package delivers big sound.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2023 award-winner.

Award-winning heritage
Following on from the DX-2, perhaps the most highly reviewed speaker package in its category, the DX-3 has an unbeatable heritage of excellence. The winning form continues with the latest speakers, which are closely related to Wharfedale’s equally renowned Diamond 12 series. With such a blend of talent in the mix, it’s little wonder that the Wharfedale DX-3 sounds so impressive.

Full-range satellite speakers for dynamic sound
Based on Wharfedale’s Diamond 12 series technology, the four satellite speakers deliver a much fuller and more rounded sound than most satellite designs. Although slightly larger than some, the benefit to sound quality is huge. All four speakers are a two-way design with dedicated silk dome tweeter and woven polypropylene woofer. Along with the rigid cabinets, it’s these drivers that produce the precise, dynamic sound that’s perfect for delivering immersive soundtracks and special effects around your room.

Dedicated centre speaker delivers vocal clarity
Designed specifically for the purpose, the DX-3’s centre speaker utilises an aperiodic layout for the clearest vocals. The horizontal format speaker uses twin woofers, giving you a broad spread of sound between the front speakers, without ‘gaps’ in the sound stage. The design also helps tie the sound to the screen, especially when used with a large screen TV or projector.

Powerful bass response
For that edge-of-seat, cinematic thrill, a powerful bass response is a must, and that’s exactly what the DX-3’s subwoofer provides. With its 8” cone and 75 watt active amplifier, it masters every bass scenario with ease. From an energetic soundtrack to a stadium rock concert, the bass is always there to be felt as well as heard. Auto on/off means that you can place the subwoofer out of sight, without having to reach the controls. Phase inversion lets you position the subwoofer behind you, if needed.

Choice of finish
Available in Black oak or Walnut finishes, the DX-3 speaker pack makes a great match for a wide range of decors. Should you choose to upgrade any of the speakers, such as swapping the front speakers for floorstanders, you’ll find the finishes and aesthetics tie in well with Wharfedale’s other speaker ranges.

For a home cinema speaker package that sparkles with talent, take a listen to the Wharfedale DX-3.
