Sony's already introduced 3D TVs and 3D Blu-ray players, and it's now finally followed those up with a 3D-capable receiver for those who need to pass through 3D video while internally decoding high res audio. That model, the STR-DN1010, is naturally a 7.1 A/V receiver, and boasts 110 watts of power per channel, along with four HDMI ports (including one with Audio Return Channel plus three component), support for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, upscaling of any video source to 1080p, support for Sony's S-AIR wireless system, and a Digital Media Port to accommodate iPod docks and other accessories, among other standard fare. Look for this one to land in June for $500, along with three other new non-3D models (the STR-DH810, STR-DH710 and STR-DH510) that will run you $400, $300 and $230.

Expect more to come soon.

That is actually a good deal for someone without a ps3 and without a receiver that can decode HD audio. Cause its $500 for that model, my 605 does everything it does except the ipod dock cost extra$ and im not quite sure if the ps3 automatically upscales dvds and crap to 1080p or 720p

Someone who has a ps3 will get the 3d firmware update, so if they want the hd audio they could get a cheaper receiver that does it ... however, $500 isnt a bad price for a receiver of this magnitude and throw in the fact that it has basically a 3d blu player in it then its less wear and tear on the ps3 for only maybe $100 savings after spending around the $400 range for a receiver that is good enough sub the 3dplayer.


So yeah, good receiver
