ToneWinner Launches AT-600 8K AV Processor
The flagship decoder adds 16-channel immersive decoding and includes a full Dirac Live license at no extra cost.
Updated on Nov. 6, 2026 in Home Entertainment
ToneWinner introduced the AT-600, the flagship of its decoder series, supporting 8K video pass-through and 16-channel immersive decoding. A complete Dirac Live license is included at no additional cost.
Why it matters
The bundled Dirac Live license pairs the processor's room correction and bass control with ToneWinner's ETQ audio measurement system, a combination typically sold separately. It positions the AT-600 as a complete home theater processing option for buyers building high-end systems.
The AT-600 provides sixteen RCA outputs, fourteen XLR balanced outputs, and three independent subwoofer outputs expandable to drive up to six subwoofers. The unit weighs 4.4 kg and draws a maximum of 30 W, and independent verification of its published audio specifications has not been reported.

Health Landscape
Bundling Dirac Live room correction into a flagship processor reflects a trend in home audio toward integrated calibration, following Dirac Live's standalone licensing model. The AT-600 places that calibration alongside 8K pass-through and 16-channel decoding in a single unit.
Buyers planning a home theater upgrade can compare the AT-600's outputs and subwoofer expansion against their existing speakers and room layout before purchasing. The included Dirac Live license removes the need to buy room correction software separately.
The takeaway
Buyers comparing flagship processors should check whether room correction is included, since the AT-600 bundles a full Dirac Live license at no added cost. Verifying the listed audio specifications against independent reviews before purchase is a practical step.
