        8. HDMI

        Onkyo TX-SR309 comes with 3 HDMI inputs. It has 1 output.

        Yamaha RX-V385 comes with 4 HDMI inputs. It has 1 output.

        • 1080/60p Passthrough on Onkyo TX-SR309: All inputs pass up to 1080p video signal.
          4K/60Hz Passthrough on Yamaha RX-V385: All inputs pass up to 4K/60p 4:4:4 video signal.
        • 4K Upscaling on Yamaha RX-V385: It can upscale up to 4K 60p 4:4:4 from HDMI sources.
        • BT.2020 Color Space: BT.2020 or Rec. 2020 is a color standard which delivers a wider color gamut compared to Rec. 709. It covers approximately 75% of the total visual spectrum while the Rec. 709 covers only 35% (available on Yamaha RX-V385 only).
        • HDCP 2.-1 Copy Protection: Yamaha RX-V385 is HDCP 2.3 compliant which is a requirement for 4K/HDR copy-protected content transmission.
        • 3D Ready: Both receivers are able to pass 3D video through HDMI.

        HDR (High Dynamic Range)

        Onkyo TX-SR309 does not support HDR.

        Yamaha RX-V385 supports HDR10, Dolby Vision and Hybrid Log-Gamma. High dynamic range video has greater dynamic range than standard dynamic range (SDR) video with brighter whites and deeper blacks. The result is greater contrast and more details in dark and bright areas, better color and depth.


        Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC)

        Yamaha RX-V385 supports Audio Return Channel (ARC) which allows the compatible TV to send audio signal to the a/v receiver through the same HDMI cable which is used to send audio and video signals to the TV. So one HDMI cable is used to transfer audio signal in both directions. New Enhanced ARC will support uncompressed audio formats such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio whereas the previous ARC could support only Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, DTS HD, and PCM.
