Yamaha RX-V6A 7.2-channel Network A/V Receiver - Black

Flawless performance from any source material

High-performance A/V receivers must be able to resolve a myriad of multichannel formats in order to deliver an amazing, immersive sonic experience in your living room. The Yamaha RX-V6A flawlessly handles the two major object-based immersive formats, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, employing sophisticated steering logic to accurately route sound components to their appropriate locations and taking full advantage of the three-dimensional soundfield afforded by your height (presence) speakers. No height speakers? Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization delivers the full Atmos 3D experience from any Dolby format by generating a virtual surround and height effect from traditional speaker configurations without requiring height (or surround) speakers. The RX-V6A’s sophisticated algorithms do all the heavy lifting behind the scenes to deliver a deeply immersive cinematic experience, regardless of the source.

Two subwoofer outputs for strong, clean, balanced bass

if you’re setting up a surround system in a large room, you’ll likely need more bass coverage than one subwoofer can deliver. Fortunately, the Yamaha RX-V6A provides two outputs for powered subwoofers. We’d recommend starting with two subs along the front wall, symmetrically positioned inboard of the front left and right speakers and straddling the center speaker. You can experiment by positioning your subs outboard of the left and right speakers, which typically results in more expansive bass, depending on your room. However you position them, using multiple subs will not only deliver more bass, but also a more balanced low-frequency response. It also relieves the stress placed on a single sub during playback of bass-heavy music and action sequences, so you’ll enjoy cleaner and more detailed bass.
