£2,299
”Yamaha’s RX-A6A is a great premium AVR with exhaustive features and expansive sound.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ – 5 Star review.
9.2 channels for enveloping sound
With no fewer than 9.2 channels of sound, the Yamaha RX-A6A opens up a new realm of possibilities. With a 5.2.4 configuration, you can use four ceiling speakers for the ultimate in Atmos and DTS:X sound. 7.2.2 gives a wider spread of sound around the room yet still retains twin ceiling speakers. For the largest rooms and non-Atmos systems, 9.2 channels gives totally immersive sound.
Upgrade to 11-channel sound for cinematic immersion
Add an extra stereo power amp for next level surround sound. Configure four ceiling or Atmos-enabled speakers as well as full, 7-channel surround sound. Alternatively, use two Atmos speakers and enjoy a broad soundstage with 'front wide speakers' forming a 9.2.2 system. If you don't fancy a Dolby Atmos specific system but want the most immersive sound possible, go for an 11.2 configuration. This offers 7.2 sound with the addition of front width and front height speakers.
High power output
Backing up the multi-channel output is a high power amplifier. Punching out a mighty 150 watts per channel, the RX-A6A fills the largest rooms with effortless, dynamic sound. If you want to be kept on the edge of your seat with cinema thrills, this is the AV receiver for you.
Adaptive sound courtesy of Surround:AI
Surround:AI gives the ultimate surround sound – scene by scene. Powerful processing from the DSP (Digital Sound Processor) analyses scenes in real time and then adjusts the surround effect in real time. By focusing on distinct sounds, such as dialogue, background music and sound effects, the RX-A6A automatically optimises the sound for incredible realism.
Aventage quality
This Aventage AV receiver boasts exceptional construction quality. Anti-Resonance Technology (ART) makes this AVR exceptionally resistant to mechanical and electrical interference. ART encompasses a more rigid, H-shaped Cross Frame chassis, anti-vibration construction and even a fifth damping foot, helping give the RX-A6A its superb detail and resolution.
High quality digital components
It’s not just the mechanical side of the RX-A6A that has received Yamaha’s attention, the digital components are also of exceptional quality. The Qualcomm QCS407 system chips offers industry-leading compatibility, digital signal processing and seamless integration. Partnering this are SABRE ES9026 PRO and ES9007S premium DACs (Digital to Analogue Convertors). These offer exceptionally high signal-to-noise ratios, giving you ultra-low levels of distortion and crystal-clear sound – even at low volume levels.
Wide-ranging surround sound – including Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and Auro-3D*
With wide-ranging surround sound support, the RX-A6A is all about immersive sound – however many speakers you use. Compatible formats include Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization Technology, DTS:X, DTS Neural:X and Auro-3D. This wide range of options means you can adapt your surround sound speaker system from the simplest system with ‘virtual height’ speakers to full-blown 11.2 systems that truly bring the cinema home.
Professional connections – XLR balanced
Featuring an XLR balanced interface, the RX-A6A is capable of pro-level connectivity. XLR connections feature additional shielding, making them more resistant to electrical interference. A further benefit is being able to run longer cables with minimal loss of quality. For the best audio connection, go XLR.
Connect more – including a turntable
As well as seven HDMI inputs, this Yamaha AVR also has a wide range of other AV connectivity. Component and composite inputs cover classic video sources. Optical and coaxial digital inputs are ideal for connecting older devices or upgrading the sound from a compatible CD/Network player. Five analogue inputs are perfect for Hi-Fi components, with the dedicated MM phono input perfect for plugging in a turntable.
Three HDMI outputs
Paired with the HDMI inputs, the RX-A6A boasts no fewer than three HDMI outputs. This lets you connect a TV and projector in your main room and a second TV in another room.
Dedicated HDMI Zone B
The RX-A6A benefits from a dedicated Zone B output. Zone switching lets you watch and listen to one source in a room and another in a different room. The second zone can also make use of the dedicated pre-amp or speaker outlets for complete independence. Further bonuses include Zone Extra Bass and Zone Volume Equaliser for tailored sound in your second zone.
Compatible with the next generation of high resolution – 8K*
Featuring a trio of 8K compliant HDMI inputs and matching output, this Yamaha AVR is ready for the next generation of TV. If you’ve not yet made the jump to 8K TV, the sockets also handles up to 4K/120Hz signals, for the highest quality pass through. Upscaling to UHD 4K is also standard. *via firmware update.
Supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+*
The RX-A6A supports a wide range of High Dynamic Range video formats. These include Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG. It also supports HDR10+, which enhances picture realism by sending dynamic Meta data to your TV. *via firmware update.
Game on*
The latest HDMI support also marks a big improvement in gaming. 4K/120Hz and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) support maximise resolution and clarity. Quick Frame Transport (QFT) and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) help eliminate lag and frame tearing, giving you a smoother, more responsive gaming experience. *via firmware update.
Surround sound, untied
For an easy way to reduce cabling, the RX-A6A offers the option of wireless rear speakers. Combine this receiver with the Yamaha MusicCast 20 or MusicCast 50 speakers and you can leave aside speaker cable connections. Perfect if you have a solid floor and struggle to hide speaker cable or if you simply want a cleaner style, wireless surround speakers cut down on the clutter.
MusicCast for music all around your home
The Yamaha RX-A6A is part of Yamaha's hugely impressive network audio system, MusicCast. With MusicCast you control all your compatible Yamaha MusicCast products via your smartphone or even Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant by voice*. Play the same music on all the components or split the sound into different zones for different moods in each room; the choice is yours. The MusicCast CONTROLLER app lets you operate the system around your home and change settings quickly and easily. *requires third party Alexa or Google device.
Stream the best music services
Compatible with Amazon Music, Spotify Premium, Pandora, Napster, Tidal, Deezer and Qobuz, the RX-A6A is fully equipped for your favourite music streaming service. With Tidal and Qobuz already offering higher resolution playback, it’s now possible to find a streaming service that at least matches the quality of CD and, in some cases, even improves upon it.
Advanced networking including Apple AirPlay and Bluetooth
As well as MusicCast, the RX-A6A is also compatible with Apple AirPlay 2, letting you stream music from your Apple iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad or other compatible Apple device, wirelessly, around your home. Just ask Siri where you want the music to play. For a quick and easy connection with your smartphone, use the Bluetooth connection for easy music streaming.
Fresh new style
The latest Aventage series has a fresh new style. With its gloss black finish and sleek control panel, the RX-A6A has a less cluttered look than before, with a timeless minimalism.
Upgrade you home cinema with the powerful, better connected Yamaha RX-A6A.
Enjoy world-class Yamaha sound in total comfort, with the noise isolating Yamaha TW-E7B earphones.
Active Noise Cancellation for isolation
ANC (Active Noise Cancelation) actively phases out external noise, letting you hear more of your music, more of the time. Brilliant on the move, at the office or when waiting for your bus, train or plane at a busy terminal. Use with the Yamaha Headphones Controller app and you can simply swipe the setting on or off.
Ultimate, Yamaha sound
Yamaha’s flagship earphones boast studio quality sound for astonishing realism. Using a nozzle system, the sound from the driver is directed precisely to your ear, giving incredibly clarity. For a strong bass and punchy dynamics, the oversized acoustic chamber behind the driver gives the sound the space it needs to gain impact.
Superior sound through improved fit
For optimal sound quality, you also need the best fit with your ears. The Yamaha TW-E7B uses a curved oval shape that softly fits your ear’s contours. Supplied with five sizes of earpads (XS/S/M/L/XL) it’s easy to get a snug fit.
Stay aware with Ambient Sound
Adjustable Ambient Sound control lets you hear more of the outside world when you want to. Using the built-in microphone, outside noise is introduced into your hearing, keeping you aware of your surroundings. Fully adjustable, you can switch it off when on the move and just want to zone out, or on when you’re walking through a busy city or need to listen out for travel announcements. The choice is yours.
Sound that’s personal to you
We all hear sound differently, especially when wearing earphones. Yamaha’s Listener Optimiser uses high-performance, in-ear microphones to measure and then optimise the sound. This gives you the best possible response, whatever your ear’s shape.
Unique, Listening Care Advanced
Protecting your hearing, Yamaha’s Listening Care Advanced intelligently optimises the sound to assist your long-term hearing. Using Yamaha’s unique YPAO Volume technology, the sound is constantly analysed and adjusted in real time for the best sound at all volumes. This means you don’t need to turn the volume right up to hear the music’s full impact.
Long battery life
Battery life is rated at up to six hours per charge, making this comfortably above average for ANC, true wireless earphones. Once flat, simply pop them in the case and get further recharges – giving a total of up to 22 hours playback time.
Built tough
With an IPX5 water resistant rating, the Yamaha TW-E7B earphones are tough enough to cope with the elements. A sudden rain shower or prolonged workout won’t harm these durable earphones.
Voice assistant – Siri and Google compatible
Featuring Siri and Google Assistant voice compatibility, these earphones make the perfect upgrade for your smartphone. You’ll not only gain a big step-up in sound quality, but also the full functionality you’d expect from your Apple iOS or Android smartphone. Need to take a call, find music or check directions? Just ask Siri or Google.
App control
Download the free Yamaha Headphones Controller app (available for Apple iOS and Android), and take full control. Features include Listening Care and Ambient Sound settings, plus a handy power-off timer.
