Yamaha has introduced two next-generation 7.1-channel A/V receivers — the RX-V3900 and RX-V1900.
The new receivers support HD Radio and are XM and Sirius Satellite Radio ready. Each receiver is compatible with iPods via the YDS-11 Universal Dock ($99.95).
Yamaha's Compressed Music Enhancer technology compensates for lost detail of audio compressed during the ripping process.
The optional YBA Yamaha Bluetooth Wireless Audio Receiver ($129.95) streams A2DP audio from mobiles devices and PCs to both receivers.
Both models also support these HD audio signals: Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio and DTS-HD Master Audio, as well as surround sound processing with Yamaha's Cinema DSP.
The RX-V3900 and RX-V1900 upconvert analog video sources with four HDMI inputs. The receivers have versatile control for up to three zones. They come with a RS-232C interface and a remote control.
Both have optional receiver managers and programmable dual 12-volt triggers.
Features exclusive to the RX-V3900 include:
Sirius Internet Radio will be available in March 2009 via a software upgrade.
Yamaha recently introduced its BD-S2900 Blu-ray player, which feature interactive features including BonusView and Virtual Package.
Yamaha will be exhibiting at CEDIA Expo 2008 at booth 450.
MSRP
RX-V3900 (available in September) is $1,899.95
RX-V1900 is $1,399.95
