Features

High-quality power amplifier
■ High output/high audio-quality
amplifier (150 W x 11 channels)
The unit provides an 11-channel power amplifier featuring a
three-stage Darlington current feedback circuit, with a power
supply that uses the same type of toroidal transformer used in
top-level hi-fi audio devices. The gold-plated speaker
connectors are also of the highest quality, delivering
high-grade sound.
■ Balance and unbalanced
connections are supported
Balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) input jacks are provided
on all channels, and can be selected independently for each
channel.
Balanced connections minimize the extraneous noise that can
arise in the cable connection between the unit and the
pre-amplifier, ensuring high-fidelity transmission of the audio
signal.
Unbalanced connections utilize ground-sensing to achieve
fidelity that is close to balanced transmission.
■ Chassis structure that maximizes
the potential of the unit's
performance
The chassis features a special structure that allows the full
potential of the high-quality power amplifier's potential to be
revealed.
• Symmetrical power amplifier design
• Aluminum front panel and side panels
• Extremely stable feet utilizing the A.R.T. (Anti-Resonance
Technology)

Expandable to meet diverse needs
■ Freedom for speaker placement
Since power amplifiers of the identical specification are
provided for all 11 channels, you use the unit not only for
constructing a home theater setup of up to 11 channels but
also for multi-room systems or any other speaker
configuration to meet your needs.
Pre-amplifier
■ Support for bi-amp connections/
bridge connection and
multi-speaker playback
The unit provides a channel selector function that lets you
utilize bi-amp connections /bridge connection or
multi-speaker connections without having to connect
additional cables from your pre-amplifier. Output the CH.3
input signals from both the CH.3 and CH.4 speaker terminals
to realize a high sound quality bi-amp drive, or bridge the front
speakers to enjoy high-powered sound.
You can also output a CH.1 (monaural) input signal from the
three speakers connected to CH.1, CH.2 (L) and CH.2 (R).
■ Switch the unit's power from your
pre-amplifier (trigger function)
The unit can switch its own power status in synchronization
with power switching operations on another device that
supports the trigger function, such as an AV pre-amplifier
(TRIGGER IN). The input signal from the TRIGGER IN jack can
also be output without change in a cascade connection to
switch the power of another device such as a Yamaha
subwoofer (THROUGH OUT). In addition, another device can
be switched in synchronization when the power of the unit is
switched (TRIGGER OUT), allowing you to set up a variety of
systems with synchronized power switching.
