The Yamaha RX-A8A is a fantastic AVR for those with surround sound as a priority. Features like, Surround:AI™, analyse each scene five times every second before sending optimised audio out across your speaker setup. Auro-3D® is another surround sound feature helping to immerse you in realistic-sounding audio. This works across home theatre, video games, mobile devices, and more.
CINEMA DPS HD3 is Yamaha’s cutting-edge digital signal processing technology. This can be found built into the RX-A8A with a variety of programmed sound-field effects. These help you curate three-dimensional effects to suit your desired audio content. From the effects of a concert hall in Vienna to the commentator’s box at a major sporting event, the array of sound effects immerses you in the scene.
Specialist design helps the RX-A8A perform optimally at the centre of your home theatre. Anti-resonance technology supports the reduction of vibration and keeps the AVR completely steady for unincumbered sound quality. 32-bit SABRE PRO Premier DAC ES9026PRO is one of the premium digital elements engrained in Yamaha’s RX-A8A to enrich audio quality. Its impact is felt in the heightened drama of silence and reduced noise.
Since a crucial firmware update, gaming is seamless. Tap into the benefits of auto-low-latency-mode (ALLM), variable-refresh-rate (VRR), quick frame transport (QFT), and quick media switching (QMS). Such features contribute to game responsiveness, load speeds, and smooth transitions, making the gaming experience immaculate.
On your marks, get set up, go! An easy-to-follow AV setup guide app leads you through installing your new Yamaha RX-A8A and resolves any uncertainty surrounding cables and connectivity. The app also lends a hand with the configuring of your AVR’s settings so you can be enjoying its many benefits in no time. A thorough user manual is also available to access and read online as an alternative source of guidance.
The RX-A8A features Yamaha’s own room calibration system, known as YPAO™—an abbreviation of Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimiser. While different levels of YPAO™ exist across Yamaha product models, the RX-A8A features a comprehensive package of features including 3D, reflective sound control (RSC), multi-point measurement, and 64-bit high precision EQ. Each of these contributes to a natural-sounding and thoroughly calibrated sound environment.
Play music in multiple rooms at once, across an assortment of speakers, with all the controls in one place. That one place is the MusicCast app! The MusicCast app lets you customise the controls with personalised images so you can easily recognise which settings are for specific rooms in your home.
If you prefer to call out and command smart devices across your home, Yamaha’s RX-A8A is compatible with popular third-party AI devices such as Amazon’s Alexa or Google Assistant. Wirelessly pair your smart devices to get started with hands-free control.
Film and TV come to life with the latest HDMI 2.1 technology supporting 8K and 4K screen resolutions. Even if your screen isn’t 8K ready, your AVR will be ready to support it whenever you are. With 8K at 60 Hz, and 4K at 120 Hz refresh rate, motion transitions smoothly. HDR10+ enhances image contrast for a more realistic visual journey.
