ing, breathing entertainment center with this sophisticated centerpiece at its heart.
Enhancing and powering your music
Spreading 140 watts of power to each of 7 discrete channels allows for a surround sound performance that creates an immersive listening environment. With compressed music enhancement technology, this receiver draws out the full richness of the highs and lows in your MP3- and WMA-formatted music to bring it to life as close to the original as possible. So sit back, pump up the volume and dive into a world of rich, vibrant sound.
Interfacing digitally
Take advantage of the most advanced method available for delivering high-quality video signals to your home theater system. HDMI switching allows the reproduction of DVD and satellite TV sources with high-definition quality, providing crisp, clear video images for your HDTV. HDMI up-conversion makes 1080p resolutions possible, and even 480i signals can be improved to 480p, thanks to de-interlacing abilities. Seek to improve your signals and this receiver will show you the way.
Building a network
Not only does this receiver offer a wide variety of digital and analog inputs, it also provides a connection to a local area network. Using this LAN connection and Windows Media Connect technology (version 2 or better), the receiver allows you to play MP3, WMA and WAV files from up to 4 PCs. It can even be used as a client for Yamaha's MusicCAST home music server (sold separately), seamlessly integrating with the MCX-2000 digital audio server within your LAN. Enjoy the ability to listen to any of the thousands of stations available on Internet radio when connected to a broadband Internet connection.
Add to your system
Once you've experienced the power and quality of this receiver, you'll be looking for even more ways to enjoy it. Since it's XM satellite radio-ready, you can simply add the XM Connect and Play digital antenna (sold separately) to tune in to over 150 channels of music, sports, news, talk and entertainment. You can give your iPod a comfortable home with the addition of the YDS-10 universal dock (sold separately). Whether you connect to an external speaker system for mind-blowing surround sound or to your TV for theater-style movies, this receiver won't disappoint.
Customizable zone control
Looking to set up multiple zones of control within your entertainment system? This receiver lets you create up to 3 zones with audio control and 2 with video. It provides front-panel controls for multiroom power, XM/FM/AM tuning and volume and input selection. The RS-232c interface provides touch-panel control for zones 2 and 3, offering an easy way to adjust ceiling- or wall-mounted speakers. You can even use the separate zone remote unit for easy control over each part of your extended entertainment system.
