YAMAHA LAUNCHES 7-CHANNEL DIGITAL HOME THEATER RECEIVERS W/ ENHANCED FEATURES AND UPGRADED POWER
RX-V2400 and RX-V1400 Digital Home Theater Receivers Feature Cinema DSP, THX Select, Component Video Up Conversion and YPAO (Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer) for Versatile, High-Quality Sound at Popular Prices
INDIANAPOLIS, IN –– Yamaha Electronics Corporation, the innovator in home theater and Digital Soundfield Processing (DSP) technology, today introduced two affordable A/V digital home theater receivers further solidifying Yamaha’s leadership position in the rapidly growing specialty receiver market. By utilizing the latest advances in LSI, component and circuitry design, the RX-V2400 and RX-V1400 deliver the outstanding audio and video performance that has come to be the signature of Yamaha’s home theater products.
Worthy successors to Yamaha’s previous receiver models, the mid-priced RX-V2400 (120W x 7) and RX-V1400 (110W x 7) feature powerful 7-channel amplification and utilize Yamaha’s Digital ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology) design concept to maximize digital sound quality, with several operation modes that provide short, direct signal paths for even greater sound clarity.
A powerful 32-bit proprietary LSI provides full range realistic music and movie sound. Both units are compatible with the latest sound formats (including Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS-ES Discrete 6.1, DTS Neo:6 and DTS 96/24), and also provide THX Select processing.
The RX-V2400 and RX-V1400 are both extremely versatile as well as user-friendly. These models include the Component Video UP Conversion feature, which can upgrade composite and S-video signals to component video format for ease of installation. The RX-V1400 is the first product at $799 to include this feature. Another example of how easy the new receivers are to use is the new YPAO (Yamaha Automatic Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer) function, which automatically analyzes room acoustics, then sets parameters for optimum sound quality at the listening position, via a fully parametric EQ, at the touch of a button.
The RX-V2400 and RX-V1400 feature the next generation of Yamaha’s proprietary CINEMA DSP technology, which offers a wider range of surround sound programs. Sophisticated internal surround decoding and ambience processing in the two receivers are enabled by the YSS-930, a 32-bit Floating-Point LSI that yields 29 DSP programs with 49 possible variations in the RX-V2400. The RX-V1400 offers 28 DSP programs (with 48 variations) , including SILENT CINEMA mode for enjoying surround-like sound through conventional headphones.
In addition, on-screen menus and a learning remote control provide easy access to all functions of the RX-V2400 and RX-V1400. Both units also offer an extensive range of inputs and outputs, including easier to use custom installation features. (With multi-sourced Zone 2, Zone 3, powered zone 2, zone 2 speaker out on both, RS-232C on RX-V2400).
The RX-V2400 (MSRP $999) and RX-V1400 (MSRP $799) will be available in September, 2003 and be introduced at CEDIA 2003 at the Indianapolis Convention Center , booth 218, beginning September 5th .
