EEEngine

EEEngine (Energy Efficient Engine) Technology makes more efficient use of AC power by reducing power consumption and heat generation without degrading output power or sound quality. When power requirements are low, the system uses a highly efficient current buffer to transparently switch input power on and off as needed. As power requirements increase, an independently responding auxiliary power line supplies additional power as required. Output isnt compromised, as the auxiliary power line is driven by the power supply voltage, which maintains maximum output to the speaker load.
Power Consumption Comparison

(f: 1kHz, RL: 4 )

Values shown are for converted chip levels to within 100 w based on actual measurement data for each amplifier.
Yamahas audio engineers have designed the new P-Series Power Amplifiers as perfect mates to the popular Club Series loudspeakers. To achieve this, they provided them with big power output that matches the power handling capabilities of the Club Series Speakers, and equipped them with YS Processing (Yamaha Speaker Processing) to deliver a signal that is tuned to the needs of these loudspeakers. Big power output is evident in their power ratings, from 3200 watts for the P7000S to 1300 watts from the P2500S, operating at 4-ohms bridged. This power output also best matches the power handling capabilities of our Club Series Speakers. So, if you want to drive a pair of Club S115s with 500-watt program ratings, the P5000S, with 500-watts per channel into 8-ohms, makes it the perfect choice. Further matching is found in Yamahas proprietary YS Processing. Each model is equipped with this specially designed circuit that delivers output tailored to the specific response of the Club Series speakers for superior audio quality and performance. All models feature both XLR and 1/4-inch TRS inputs and Neutrik Speakon, phone plug, and 5-way binding post outputs to make connections quick and easy. Other features include Yamahas exclusive EEEngine technology which delivers high performance with exceptional efficiency, sweepable high and low pass filters for optimizing output to any loudspeakers, compact and durable 2U chassis, and variable speed cooling fans.

Description

Recorded samples from a full concert grand piano. Perfect for classical compositions as well as any other style that requires acoustic piano. Clear piano with bright reverb. Good for popular music. An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Good for popular music. The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic tines. Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard. This is a typical pipe organ sound (8' + 4' + 2'). Good for sacred music from the Baroque period. This is the organs full coupler sound, often associated with Bachs Toccata and Fugue. Spacious and large-scale string ensemble. Try combining this voice with piano in DUAL. The denitive instrument for baroque music. Since the strings of a harpsichord are plucked, there is no touch response. Mixes the same voice an octave higher for a more brilliant tone. The sound of a vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets.

To familiarize yourself with the characteristics of the voices, listen to the demo songs for each voice (page 14).
Voice: On the P-85, the term voice means instrument sound.
