The chassis of the ES model has been fundamentally revised: the overall thickness has been increased for improved rigidity, and the structures of the transformer base and other weight-bearing parts have also been redesigned to improve the instantaneous power and crispness of the sound, when compared to a conventional chassis.
Designed with an offset screw position to both eliminate the resonance point and avoid frequency-specific, vibration-inducing resonance transmission to and from the transformer, the foot also contains additional ribs for increased rigidity and improved resonance control.
A more uniform shape applied to the heat sink enables the amplifier circuit to withstand unwanted vibration. The heat sink bracket also shields the digital circuit from radiation, for sound quality that has more stability and clarity.
Metal ES-grade frames both secure the circuit board and protect it from vibration caused by speaker sound pressure. The varying fin length of the integrated heat sink reduces audible resonance uniformity while also shielding delicate circuitry from noise.
Digital PCM signal input is processed at 32-bit and converted to analog by the DAC, while DSD signal input during direct mode is natively input to the DAC and converted to an analog signal.
The DAC analog power supply uses a low- noise power supply IC to ensure that hi-fidelity performance is achieved.
The new digital section enables all signal processing to be performed on a single chip while also providing lower impedance, increased capacitance, and better stability.
A new DAC analog output filter circuit was designed utilizing a JFET and op-amp improvement in noise floor. The phase rotation was shifted to a higher frequency, expanding the bandwidth and improving sound clarity for wide-bandwidth sources like high-resolution audio.
A Sony-exclusive integrated circuit was developed to improve all amplification function on the STR-AZ7000ES.
Applying years of sound engineering and testing experience, Sony has developed an ES-grade solder. A high-purity tin base combines with small amounts of specially chosen metal elements for a unique alloy mix that enables a quality signal and exceptional sound.
In order to increase the power, a new block capacitor was developed and the design of the power amplifier has changed. Based on our long experience in the development of sound quality capacitors, we also emphasized the selection of materials and manufacturing methods to create a component that satisfies us in terms of sound quality
In order to achieve high sound quality in the large power transformer, the core material of the power transformer has been re-selected to achieve high sound quality.
The special resistance materials and structure, pure copper has been used in the electrodes to achieve high volumes of data with rich, vivid audio quality.
Enjoy the latest HDMI technology with support for 8K & 4K/120 video sources. Equipped with four 8K HDMI inputs and two outputs, the STR-AZ7000ES is capable of delivering the most stunning picture quality and amazing clarity.
While enabling higher quality video output and reduced latency from input devices like game consoles, HDMI 2.1 also provides support for Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), Variable Refresh Rate (VRR).
Enjoy dynamic, realistic picture quality with support for the leading HDR formats, including Dolby Vision, HDR10, Hybrid Log Gamma, and IMAX Enhanced.
The STR-AZ7000ES has seven HDMI inputs with four inputs supporting full 8K & 4K/120 video sources, and two HDMI outputs that also support full 8K & 4K/120 video sources.
With 150 watts, the STR-AZ7000ES delivers cinema-like surround sound and crystal-clear music reproduction with powerful amplification.
With support for Dolby Atmos®, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization, DTS:X®, DTS Virtual: X, and DTS: X Pro, the STR-AZ7000ES delivers a truly elevated object-based surround-sound experience.
Experience true immersion. Sony’s exclusive 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology reproduces a physical sound field that can adapt to your environment and create an experience that feels like a movie theatre or concert hall.
A new technology developed by Sony, Digital Cinema Auto Calibration IX precisely corrects the distance, angle, sound pressure, and frequency response of each speaker that’s connected to the STR-AZ7000ES to create the ideal sound field for any home theater setup.
Enjoy music the way the artists truly intended with High-Resolution Audio for crystal clear precision or discover a new way of listening with 360 Reality Audio for a truly immersive live concert or studio session experience.With the STR-AZ7000ES, your music comes to life like never before.
Acoustic Center Sync matches the audio to your compatible BRAVIA TV.
Dual Center Speaker works with a second speaker to more accurately replicate sound with large screens.
Center Speaker Lift Up raises the sound from the center speaker to match what’s on the TV.
Sony’s SA-RS3S & SA-RS5 wireless rear speakers and SA-SW3 & SA-SW5 wireless subwoofers (Sold sep.) are compatible with the STR-AZ7000ES. Two subwoofers of the same model may be connected simultaneously to the receiver.
Listen to all your favorite tracks. The STR-AZ7000ES supports audio streaming via Bluetooth®,11 Wi-Fi, Chromecast built-in,7 Spotify Connect, and Apple AirPlay®.
From the SONOS app you will be able to turn on your A/V receiver, switch to the designated input source for playback, and control the volume of your A/V receiver.
Connect to your home’s other devices, and use voice control to operate your receiver with Google Assistant.
Control the STR-AZ7000ES from your mobile device for operations like source selection, zone control, sound field control, volume control, media playback, and voice assistant setup.
Enjoy seamless integration with your Roon system for full access to all your music—including your digital files and streaming services—all in one place.
Using AI-based technology, DSEE Ultimate accurately upscales audio to near-high-resolution sound quality.
With support for the leading control and remote monitoring systems like Control4, Savant, Crestron, and OvrC, the STR-AZ7000ES is built for integration.
Installing the STR-AZ7000ES is easy. Setup can be performed either via the front panel or through the onscreen Graphical User Interface (GUI).
Equipped with full 13.2 ch pre-outputs for extended connectivity flexibility
Using the front mounted USB, you can easily apply system updates and during setup, save all receiver settings to a flash drive for backing up and porting over to another unit to replicate settings.
Equipped with three 12-volt triggers for external peripherals, amplifiers, and more.
Three IR repeaters (1-in, 2-out) for external device control.
Ping button for easy IP recall on front panel of receiver.
RS232C port for control system configuration.
