  • Key Specs
    • Number of Channels: 9.2 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
    • Video Pass-through: 2160 (4K), 3D (Devices with this feature allow video signals to travel from their source to a target device without alteration. For example, a receiver with 4K pass-through would allow 4K video signal from a Blu-ray player to pass to a target TV with surround sound; without the pass-through ability, the receiver would not allow both 4K video and surround sound to be transmitted simultaneously.)

Q: will this reciever improve the picture quality 4k tv

A: I doubt it will "improve" picture quality but I am not an expert. I use this to "pass-through" 4K to my TV from my XBOX One and other devices and it does just fine. I think if you talk to the experts they always say the less hardware (like this) between your source and destination the better. Meaning that everything you add in the middle can only make it worse not better, so that is why I say this does not likely make it better, just does a good job of not making it worse. For me however, I do not plug everything directly into the TV so I need the pass through capabilities, using the stereo like a switch between devices. I am happy with this receiver overall. Best wishes.
