( http://www..com/Yamaha-Corporation-AV-Controller/dp/B007KB6PYC ) AirPlay Allows Streaming Music to AV Receiver --------------------------------------------- This AV receiver supports AirPlay, which means they can accept wireless music streaming from iPod touch, iPhone or iPad, as well as from iTunes on Macs or PCs. This makes it easy to enjoy music from your mobile devices or computer on your home theater system. You can use view metadata such as song title, artist name as well as album art* via AV receiver's on-screen display. *Some models don't support album art display. HDMI CEC for Easy Operation --------------------------- Another benefit of HDMI is the availability of CEC functionality. When the unit is connected to a CEC compatible TV, it will turn on and off together with the TV, and you can use the TV remote to control the volume. CEC also provides advanced functionality with other components. For example, you can use the receiver’s remote unit to control player functions like Skip and Stop. *All connected devices must be HDMI CEC compatible. Some CEC compatible TVs/players may not work. YPAO Sound Optimization for Automatic Speaker Setup --------------------------------------------------- YPAO analyzes the room acoustics and adjusts various audio parameters for optimum sound in just a few minutes. It’s like having a professional installer calibrate your system. USB Digital Connection for iPod, iPhone and iPad on the Front Panel ----------------------------------------------------------------- A USB port on the front panel allows convenient connection of an iPod/iPhone/iPad, which also charges when connected. Because the digital signal from the iPod/iPhone/iPad is transmitted directly to the AV receiver, there is no signal loss or interference, so you enjoy the best possible sound quality. In addition, you can use the receiver’s remote control unit to operate the iPod/iPhone/iPad music playback functions. SCENE for One-Touch Start ------------------------- Pressing a SCENE button powers on the AV Receiver and selects the input source and DSP mode. You can re-set the buttons for different sources by selecting a source and DSP mode, then pressing a SCENE button for more than three seconds. HD Audio with CINEMA DSP 3D and Virtual Presence Speaker -------------------------------------------------------- CINEMA DSP 3D provides a wide, high and dense sound field. HD Audio format decoding lets you enjoy HD Audio sources. Virtual Presence Speaker delivers 3-dimensional sound without actual use of presence speakers. Input Selection in HDMI Standby Through Mode -------------------------------------------- When the AV receiver is in HDMI Standby Through mode, the input source (Blu-ray™ Disc player, game console, etc.) for viewing on the monitor can be changed via the remote control. There’s no need to turn on the AV receiver in order to switch sources. Subwoofer Trim for Improved Sound Imaging ----------------------------------------- The Subwoofer Trim control enhances the low frequencies by avoiding overlap with the front speaker output. This will result in a cleaner, more focused sound stage while providing a seamless frequency response. When subwoofer frequency overlap occurs in conventional systems, the overall sound is “pushed” toward the subwoofer. Subwoofer Trim takes care of this by separating the low subwoofer frequencies cleanly, thus stabilizing the front stage while providing a well-balanced enhanced bass sound. Compressed Music Enhancer ------------------------- When music is encoded into a digitally compressed format like MP3, the frequency response suffers. Yamaha’s Compressed Music Enhancer employs sophisticated digital signal processing using exclusive algorithms to restore what was lost, so the music always sounds the way it should. Adaptive DRC (Dynamic Range Control) ------------------------------------ Adaptive DRC automatically adjusts the dynamic range of the sound according to the volume level. This ensures that you hear clear dialogue and vocals, and all sound effects at comfortable levels. There is no need to adjust the volume level as you listen; everything from whispers to big explosions will be heard clearly and comfortably at the same volume setting. It also tones down loud TV commercials, and is ideal for low-volume, late-night listening, when you do not want to disturb others. ECO mode lowers power consumption by 20%* ----------------------------------------- Yamaha’s new ECO mode reduces power consumption by about 20%. It can be set from the top of the GUI menu. * Compared to power consumption when ECO mode is off (Yamaha measurement). Selectable Auto Power Down -------------------------- Auto Power Down lets you save energy by selecting to turn off the power after 2, 4, 8 or 12 hours. * Compared to power consumption when ECO mode is off (Yamaha measurement). Low Standby Power Consumption ----------------------------- Yamaha makes its receivers eco-friendly with a low standby power consumption of 0.1W in IR Standby mode (1W in HDMI Standby Through mode, 2W in Network Standby mode). Other Notable Advanced Features ------------------------------- * Charging of iPod, iPhone and iPad via USB when AV Receiver is off * iPod/iPhone song titles displayed in English and Western European languages on the front panel * Multi language color OSD for improved visibility * Audio input assign capability for HDMI and component video input * Front panel mini jack input for connecting portable audio player * Audio input assign capability for HDMI and component video input * 9 selectable subwoofer crossover frequencies * Subwoofer phase select / Subwoofer out * Initial Volume Setting and Maximum Volume Setting * Audio Delay for adjusting Lip-Sync (0-250 ms) * 40-station preset tuning / Auto preset tuning * Background Video feature (for Radio only) Which Yamaha RX-V Series Receiver is Right for You? --------------------------------------------------- Yamaha RX-V373 -------------- Check out the Yamaha RX-V373 ( http://www..com/dp/B007JF8FD8 ) Yamaha RX-V473 -------------- Check out the Yamaha RX-V473 ( http://www..com/dp/B007JF85VU ) Yamaha RX-V573 -------------- Check out the Yamaha RX-V573 ( http://www..com/dp/B007JF861O ) Yamaha RX-V673 -------------- Check out the Yamaha RX-V673 ( http://www..com/dp/B007JF85WE ) Yamaha RX-V773-WA ----------------- Check out the Yamaha RX-V773 ( http://www..com/dp/B007JF85SS ) Power ----- Watts/Channel 100 x 5 105 x 5 110 x 7 90 x 7 95 x 7 Discrete Amp - ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ Amp Assignable - - Surround Back/ Bi-amp/Zone B Surround Back/ Bi-amp/Presence/ Zone 2 Surround Back/ Bi-amp/Presence/ Zone 2 Connectivity ------------ Made for iPad/iPhone/iPod iPhone/iPod inly ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ HDMI In(Front)/Out 4in 1out 4in 1out 4in 1out 6(1)/1 6(1)/2 HDMI 4k-2k Pass-thru Pass-thru Pass-thru Pass-thru & Upscale Pass-thru & Upscale & HDMI Zone B Ease of Use ----------- Panel Height 130mm 140mm 140mm 150mm 150mm/Aluminum front On-Screen Display ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ Graphic-User-Interface - - ✔ ✔ ✔ YPAO Speaker Setup ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ PLUS RSC ✔ PLUS RSC Multi-point Multi-Zone - - Zone B Zone 2 Line out / SP out Zone 2 Line out / SP out Network Features ---------------- Wifi App Control - ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ Apple AirPlay/Internet Radio - ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ DLNA Certified - ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ Network Receiver - ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ PLUS WIFI ADAPTER INPUTS/OUTPUTS -------------- HDMI 4/1 4/1 4/1 6(1 front)/1 6(1 front)/2 USB 1 1 1 1 1 Network Port - ✔ ✔ ✔ ✔ Digital Optical 2/0 2/0 2/0 2/0 2/0 Digital Coaxial 2/0 2/0 2/0 2/0 2/0 Analog Audio 4(front 1)/2 4(front 1)/1 4(front 1)/1 4(front 1)/1 4(front 1)/1 Component Video 2/1 2/1 2/1 2/1 2/1 Composite Video 4(front 1)/1 5(front 1)/1 5(front 1)/1 5(front 1)/1 5(front 1)/1 Preout Subwoofer 1 1 1 2 2 Headphone out 1 1 1 1 1
