By combining in one case an integrated amplifier on discrete elements, an FM tuner and a multimedia network player supporting the proprietary technology of building multi-room systems MusicCast, Yamaha has offered a virtually ideal component around which you can build a modern music system. The Yamaha R-N1000A receiver is equipped with digital and optical inputs, and also has an HDMI input with support for ARC technology. Thus, the amplifier can be connected to a TV for high-quality reproduction of the soundtrack of films and TV shows.
The Yamaha R-N1000A network stereo receiver is designed according to the proprietary True Sound concept, which provides the most accurate reproduction of music of any genre. The device is made in a metal case on a double chassis, protecting its circuits from vibrations and electrical interference. The laconic design gives the model a prestigious appearance. At the same time, all the most necessary controls are located on the front panel of the stereo receiver.
The Yamaha R-N1000A power amplifiers are made using ToP-ART technology, which is used in the company’s high-end models. It provides the most efficient transfer of energy to the connected speakers, which makes the sound rich and precise. The amplifiers are built on symmetrical boards using discrete components. The power supply unit uses a custom-made high-power transformer and selected filter capacitors of significant capacity.
The stereo receiver is equipped with a wide range of connections, which make it possible to build a variety of systems on its basis. The digital section of the Yamaha R-N1000A includes coaxial and two optical inputs, a USB input for a PC and HDMI with support for the ARC audio return channel. Wireless connection of mobile devices in the Yamaha R-N1000A is possible via Bluetooth. Streaming music playback is carried out via Ethernet or Wi-Fi connections. The DAC in the stereo receiver is made on the ES9080Q chip and provides playback of content with parameters up to 32 bit / 384 kHz and DSD 11.2 MHz.
The stereo receiver also has three linear analog inputs and a built-in phono preamplifier input for an MM pickup. There are connectors for connecting an external power amplifier and headphones. To adjust the sound character of the Yamaha R-N1000A, there are tone controls for low and high frequencies, as well as adjustable loudness compensation. The latter can be useful when playing music at low volume. An interesting feature of the model is the presence of the proprietary YPAO sound autocalibration system, which allows you to optimize the sound of the system depending on the listening conditions. The microphone included in the kit is used for its operation.
Yamaha’s MusicCast multi-room technology delivers flawless music playback across a large wireless network. It lets you connect multiple audio devices wirelessly. This connection is supported by a Wi-Fi router. Easy system control is provided by the MusicCast CONTROLLER app and other third-party resources. With a certain combination of devices and settings, the MusicCast Surround and MusicCast Stereo functions create a surround sound effect.
By installing MusicCast this application on your device, the user gets the opportunity to control the sound throughout the apartment, distributing it to speakers and other devices. The user-friendly interface of the application allows you to select the location of the sound, the signal source and the composition. Setting up the application is easy: to do this, you need to press the Connect button and hold it for a few seconds. The system will prompt you to enter a password and select a method for playing audio files. Pressing the Link button turns on the music in several rooms at once, and using the equalizer you can adjust the sound. All actions are performed in a few touches of the screen. Most audio systems work in the 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi ranges. Connecting to a router does not require installing any adapters, and to increase the signal strength and expand the coverage area, you can use additional repeaters.
What makes MusicCast different from other technologies?
Quality. Products equipped with MusicCast technology transmit high-resolution audio signals and provide music playback in all rooms.
Choice. The product line with MusicCast support includes not only wireless audio systems, soundbars, but also other devices: AV receivers, stereo receivers, subwoofers, vinyl record players, installation equipment. Unlike other multi-room solutions, the MusicCast family includes a larger number of models with different functionality and cost components.
Functionality. MusicCast devices support several wireless technologies. The system components can also be connected to the network environment using a regular twisted pair. HDMI connectors, which many models have, are designed to connect audio equipment and allow you to enter additional audio sources into the system.
Setup and control
To create a multi-room system, you need a router, devices with MusicCast technology support and the free Yamaha MusicCast CONTROLLER application. Yamaha R-N1000A
