Yamaha RXA2A Aventage Home Cinema Receiver. Crisp, new, and glossy. Five Year Warranty

This is the first model in the audiophile orientated Aventage series. Expect a crisp up front sonic presentation with good durability.


Playing the unit in our dem room reveals an impactive tonality with plenty of upper mid presence that potentially adds sparkle and engagement to a sound track. It's a matter for speaker matching and personal taste as to weather this appropriate for your your system.


Uniquely for a very complex Theatre Receiver product Yamaha are offering a five year warranty through registration for their Avantage series units.


They have gone for an unusual piano gloss finish that is a touch Yamaha Grand.


One loves the central volume knob as being quintessentially functional.

Product Description

Details

This is the first model of the uprated Aventage series.

Although it is similar in spec to an RX-6 "cookong" model it has very significant improvements including:

  • 5th anti-resonance foot offers further chassis support
  • IR in / out 3.5mm rear mounted inputs
  • Upgraded Yamaha 'premium' remote control
  • 10,000uF capacitors in the power supply vs the 8,200uF of the RX-V6A (giving greater reserves to handle dynamic audio swings)
  • 4 year warranty with 1 year extra by Registration (vs 2 years with the RX-V6A)
  • Beefier chassis (10.2kg vs 9.8kg) with a front panel that matches the Aventage series styling.

DTS:X immersive audio formatting places sound where it would naturally occur in space, creating life-like, multi-dimensional audio. The included spatial remapping engine of DTS Neural:X™ offers improved immersion and heightened realism in all your favorite movies.

HDR10+ greatly improves dynamic range (the ratio of light to dark) of video content on a scene-by-scene (or even frame-by-frame) basis. Also, using frame-by-frame metadata, it improves the scene characteristics between bright and dark so that important detail can remain. This enables displays to reproduce images more realistically, adhering to the creator's intent.

Supports end-to-end 8K/4K resolutions and higher refresh rate solutions with a single upgraded cable for seamless integration within the HDMI eco-system. 8K delivers a super-immersive viewing experience with 2x the horizontal and vertical resolution of 4K, and 4 times as many pixels; and combined with 60Hz refresh rate enables smooth and sharp viewing of content with high-speed action. 4K120 enables ultra-fast motion UHD images to be crisp and razor sharp; allowing sports, action movies, high-performance gaming and VR to benefit significantly. It also supports Dolby Vision™ and Hybrid Log-Gamma.

AirPlay 2 adds the ability to stream Apple Music and other streaming services to multiple MusicCast devices throughout your home. Easily control it from your iPhone or iPad, link it with a HomePod, or simply utilize voice control and ask Siri to assist.
