The Yamaha RX-A6A uses the Qualcomm® QCS407 chipset to deliver superior sound quality and support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X for a cinematic experience and superior audio performance with DSP technology. The RX-A6A uses the state-of-the-art 32-bit ESS SABER PRO Premier ES9026PRO DAC. The patented ESS Hyper Stream technology with 32-bit architecture for total harmonic distortion compensation is applied to reduce noise levels to a minimum. Combined with Yamaha’s proprietary DOPG (DAC On Pure Ground) concept, which eliminates potential differences between audio circuit stages to reduce background noise, this technology significantly improves silence performance and resolution across the entire frequency range, delivering rich, expressive reproduction of even the quietest audio frequencies. sounds.

The Yamaha RX-A6A has advanced gaming and multimedia features that provide even smoother motion and transitions in games, movies and videos. These include: Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) automatically sets the ideal latency setting for smooth, stutter-free viewing and fast response to commands. Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) reduces or eliminates lag, stuttering, and tearing for smoother, more detailed gameplay. Quick Media Switching (QMS) for movies and videos eliminates the delay that can result in empty frames before content is displayed. Quick Frame Transport (QFT) reduces signal transmission latency for smoother gaming and real-time interactive VR experiences.

The Yamaha RX-A6A also features Yamaha’s Cinema DSP HD3 3D surround sound technology, which is based on a combination of actual measured sound field data and the latest digital signal processing techniques. The updated CINEMA DSP HD3 technology includes new signal processing algorithms and brings sound quality closer to what you hear in movie theaters, creating a realistic sound field that truly immerses you in what’s happening on screen.

The Yamaha RX-A6A receiver uses Anti Resonance Technology (ART) in the form of a special fifth leg, which is located in the front center of the device. It absorbs much more vibration from the power transformer, transistors and heat sinks, as well as possible vibration from the speakers, resulting in dynamic sound and focused, accurate reproduction.

Video or audio content (not only transmitted through the HDMI input, but also other audio sources such as digital or analogue audio, network content and FM/DAB radio) can be streamed to a TV or home theater in another room (zone 2/4) via HDMI. This allows you to view or listen to the same content in another room as in the main room (where the AV receiver is installed), or even different content. Using the on-screen graphical interface, you can easily find and select content for the second zone, regardless of what is playing in the main zone.

11-channel Pre-Out – by connecting an external power amplifier to the Yamaha RX-A6A AV receiver (before the main amplifier), you can improve the quality of playback on the speakers. For example, using a power amplifier for the important front channel in a home theater allows you to create a system with an emphasis on sound quality. The receiver also features a balanced XLR audio input, which has an outstanding reputation in the professional audio world and is very sensitive to signal noise. When you use a Blu-ray player or CD player that has a balanced audio output, you can transmit a high-quality signal with less interference from external noise on the sound quality.

The Yamaha RX-A6A AV receiver is equipped with phono input jacks so you can connect a turntable and enjoy music from your vinyl record collection. The four SCENE buttons can be assigned to different input signals, as well as sound field programs, Music Enhancer, HDMI output and other functions. You can select different sources as input, such as an FM or Internet radio station, a streaming service station, a USB device, or a song on your PC or network storage device. Once you’ve configured all the buttons, simply press the one you want on the main unit or remote control to turn on the receiver and hear your favorite music. The buttons can be reconfigured at any time.
