More Information
Details: The RX-V795a is a 5-channel receiver providing finest performance and processing available for music and video sound. Discrete power transistors rather than IC chips are used in the amplifier section to provide the cleanest sound possible. The amp delivers 85 watts each to the five channels. The new Dolby Digital system is a fully discrete system providing six channels of sound. Five are full-frequency channels, and the sixth is a low frequency effects channel. Like Dolby Digital, DTS is a discrete 5.1 channel system. It uses a higher bit-rate for greater resolution and is available on DVDs, laser discs, and music CDs. Yamaha has designed and employed single function IC chips, called ASICs - Application Specific Integrated Circuits - for the RX-V795a. ASICs are more efficient than multi-function chips and provide the most accurate decoding possible. Yamaha's exclusive Tri-Field Processing applies Digital Sound Field Processing technology to Dolby Digital and DTS to create a true movie theater experience in the home. It develops independent enhanced sound fields for the front signals as well as for left and right surround. Yamaha's exclusive Digital Sound Field Processing for music recreates the acoustic personalities of actual concert halls and other venues. On-screen display with speaker test mode allows you to easily establish, change, and adjust settings from across the room. The on-screen display gives you a visual readout of the receiver's settings on your TV or monitor screen. The on-screen speaker test mode makes it easier to balance speaker output from your listening position.

The RX-V795a can accommodate three digital sources DVD/LD, TV/DBS and CD. The RX-V795a is a versatile receiver incorporating three sets of audio-only inputs and 4 pairs of A/V inputs. All the video inputs have RCA jacks and two have S-video and composite video output. When different input formats are connected from the same source, the RX-V795al automatically prioritizes them and selects in order AC-3RF, optical digital, coaxial digital, and finally the analog input. The RX-V795a senses a DTS or Dolby Digital signal and will automatically switch the receiver to the appropriate mode when the signal is detected. Input and output jacks on the RX-V795a's rear panel make the receiver easy to use in multi-room or other custom installation situations. Yamaha's famed low impedance drive circuitry is included in this receiver so that it can handle virtually all loads and a wide variety of speakers. Bass Extension Control accentuates the bass by adding a 7 dB boost at around 70 Hz. Up to 40 preset AM and FM stations can be grouped in five groups eight stations. These groupings make it easy for family members to easily access their favorite stations or to have musical genres, such as all the jazz stations, grouped together.
