TOP-OF-THE-LINE 5-CHANNEL HOME
THEATER RECEIVER
The RX-V992 is a 5-channel receiver
providing the finest performance and
processing available for music and
video sound. Yamaha's Digital Sound
Field Processing, Cinema DSP, and
Tri-Field Processing are all
included as are Dolby Surround Pro
Logic and Dolby Digital processing.
DISCRETE POWER TRANSISTORS
Discrete power transistors rather
than IC chips are used in the
amplifier section to provide the
cleanest sound possible. The amp
delivers 80 watts each to the five
channels.
BUILT-IN DOLBY DIGITAL*
The most advanced and realistic
encoded surround sound for movies.
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.
NEW YAMAHA-DESIGNED IC CHIPS*
Yamaha has designed and employed
single function IC chips, called
ASICs -- Application Specific
Intergrated Circuits -- for the
RX-V2092. ASICs are more efficient
than multi-function chips and
provide the most accurate decoding
possible. Yamaha's YSS-243 is an
ASIC whose single function is
decoding Dolby Digital.
TRI-FIELD PROCESSING*
A second new ASIC, YSS-245, provides
Yamaha's exclusive Tri-Field
Processing which applies Digital
Sound Field Processing technology to
Dolby Digital and creates 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.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC
Still the most popular format for
VCR movie surround sound and
superbly handled by the RX-V992
MULTI-ROOM CAPABILITY*
Second zone rear panel audio and
video outputs, and separate power
control make the receiver ideal for
custom installation applications.
13 DSP/CINEMA DSP PROGRAMS --
INCLUDING 70mm MOVIE THEATER CINEMA
DSP*
Yamaha's exclusive Digital Sound
Field Processing for music recreates
the acoustic personalities of actual
concert halls and other venues, such
as the Roxy Theater in Los Angeles,
Village Gate in New York, Anaheim
Stadium, and concert halls and
churches in Europe. 35mm and 70mm
Cinema DSP multiplies the effects of
Dolby Pro Logic and Yamaha DSP to
provide the best possible Pro Logic
movie theater recreation in your
home.
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.
PRE-OUTS FOR ALL OTHER CHANNELS
INCLUDING SUBWOOFER
The front channels, center channel,
rear effects channels and subwoofer
all have pre-out connections. This
allows you to add outboard
amplification and direct subwoofer
connection.
DUAL CENTER CHANNEL OUTPUTS
You can easily add a second center
channel speaker. This is especially
convenient for large-room systems or
for those using a big screen or
projection TV.
FOUR AUDIO AND 5 VIDEO INPUTS*
The RX-V992 is a versatile receiver
incorporating four sets of
audio-only inputs and 5 pairs of A/V
inputs. All the video inputs have
RCA jacks and S-Video terminals.
Includes one set of A/V inputs on
the front panel for fast and easy
connection.
NEW LEARNING AND PROGRAMMABLE REMOTE
CONTROL
The advanced remote control with the
RX-V992 has learning capability and
can be programmed for up to 13
macros, so it can perform a sequence
of functions at the touch of a
single button. The keypad is
back-lit for easy operation in a
dimly lit home theater. And the
remote control can select speaker
set A or B and adjust the subwoofer
volume.
LOW IMPEDANCE DRIVE CAPABILITY AND
IMPEDANCE SWITCHING
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. For further
speaker matching, the amplifier can
be set for speakers between 4 and 8
ohms.
LINEAR DAMPING FACTOR CIRCUIT
The advantage of full range, 20 Hz -
20 kHz, damping is that it improves
the definition and resolution of the
sound output throughout the audible
frequency range.
BASS EXTENSION CONTROL
Accentuates the bass by adding a 7
dB boost at around 70 Hz.
40-STATION DIRECT ACCESS PRESET
TUNING
Up to 40 preset AM and FM stations
can be grouped in five groups of
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.
SLEEP TIMER
Switches unit off, after up to two
hours of play in :30 minute
increments.
A/B SPEAKER SELECTOR
Allows use of one or both sets of
speakers.
BINDING POST SPEAKER TERMINALS
Yamaha's heavy-duty binding post
speaker terminals accept banana
plugs, spade connectors, and a
variety of speaker wire, including
heavy gauge cable.
TONE BYPASS SWITCH
Allows bypass of bass and treble, to
provide a flat frequency response
without readjusting the tone
controls.
RECORD OUT SELECTOR
You can listen to one source while
you record another.
