These two superb receivers spotlight the impressive progress that Yamaha has made in improving home theater performance. In terms of the four qualities that we consider vital for a home theater receiver sound quality, picture quality, ease of use and surround realism they are far ahead of other models in their class. Sound quality, especially in the case of the RX-V2400, which uses extremely high quality parts in every stage, is so good you will have to hear it to believe it. Both receivers also feature a new Yamaha innovation called YPAO (Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer), that automatically optimizes the sound to match the room acoustics. Enjoy the best in home theater performance as only Yamaha can provide it.
Superior Surround Realism
Yamaha is famous for the quality and versatility of its CINEMA DSP digital sound field processing. Both receivers employ a powerful 32-bit Yamaha-developed LSI to provide an astounding range of realistic music and movie surround sound. They are compatible with all latest movie sound formats, including Dolby Pro Logic IIx, and they also offer THX Select processing. The many surround programs (33 in the RX-V2400, 31 in the RX-V1400) provide a vast range of listening options. There is even a SILENT CINEMA mode for enjoying a surround sound experience through headphones. And by using the Night Listening mode, you can maintains proper tonal balance and dynamic range when you turn down the volume.
Advanced technology and extensive features for superior audio quality, surround sound capability and control versatility.
