Product description

Expand your listening horizons with the silver A-S501 Integrated Amplifier from Yamaha. Featuring up to 100W per channel of RMS power at 6 ohms, this amp is equipped with digital inputs for connecting devices like televisions and Blu-ray/DVD players. It offers dual stereo outputs, giving you the ability to power two sets of speakers in different rooms and switch between them, or have them both playing at the same time. To increase the bass output of your sound system, there's also a terminal for connecting a subwoofer.

To reduce distortion and degradation and produce the cleanest possible sound, the A-S501 employs Pure Direct Mode. Activated via a button on the front of the unit, this mode causes input signals to bypass unused circuits and cuts off those circuits' power supply. To further ensure quality sound, the amplifier's continuously variable loudness control allows you to balance low and high frequency sounds so you can hear a full tonal range at any volume.

This Yamaha amplifier was built with energy efficiency in mind, and uses a power management system to switch itself to idle mode when not in use. The A-S501's internal circuitry mirrors itself symmetrically to produce higher signal purity and lower degradation. The chassis is reinforced with a solid center bar to reduce vibration and features a brushed aluminum front panel and knobs. The system comes with a remote control for easy operation.
    Pure Direct Mode
  • The Pure Direct mode causes the music signals to travel the shortest possible circuit route, bypassing the buffer amp and the tone, loudness and balance controls to virtually eliminate any signal degradation for the purest sound quality.
    Continuously Variable Loudness Control
  • The A-S501 features an analog loudness control on the front panel, which lets you adjust the loudness effect as desired. Separate from the overall volume, this controls the balance of the low- and high-frequency sounds, providing full tonal range at any volume level, compensating for the natural loss in the human ear of high and low frequencies at soft levels.
    Direct Symmetrical Design
  • This amplifier's left and right channels are organized in a straight, symmetrical layout for limiting distortion and increasing signal purity.
    Anti-Resonance Chassis
  • The base of the A-S501's chassis is reinforced with a solid center bar to increase rigidity support and vibration damping, which limits resonance.
    Dual System Capable
  • You can connect two separate speaker systems in different rooms and switch between them or have them both play at the same time by switching the dial on the front of the unit.
    Phono MM Terminal
  • You can connect a turntable with an MM phono cartridge to play vinyl records, allowing you to enjoy records in addition to modern media sources.
    Auto Power Standby Function
  • This amplifier puts itself into standby mode when it detects that it hasn't been used in approximately 8 hours, minimizing power consumption.
    Remote Control
  • Control your music from afar with the included remote, finished to match the design of the amplifier. The remote comes with batteries and can also be used to control a Yamaha CD player.
    Connection for Bluetooth Wireless Adapter
  • With the optional YBA-11 Bluetooth Wireless Adapter, you'll be able to stream music wirelessly from a Bluetooth capable mobile phone or a PC to the network receiver. This amplifier features a DC-out connection on the rear panel to power the adapter.
    Rotary Encoder Input Selector
  • The rotary encoder makes it quick and easy to select input sources, and the LEDs clearly show which source is selected so you can easily switch between them, even in a dark room.

    Subject: QUERY
    Date: 27.07.2021 17:38:15Name: J.J. MICHAEL MOUTOU
    Hi. Mr./Mrs.
    I owned a yamaha integrated amplifier A-S501.
    I want to built a new loudspeaker cabinet. What does the term 'damping factor of 240' means? Is the amplifier capacity is 240 watts?
    Is this amplifier equipped with a 6 ohms/ 8 ohms function for loudspeakers?
    Should i search for loudspeakers of 8 ohms only or can I look for 6 ohms also?
    Finally, can i play loudspeakers 8 ohms 100 watts RMS with the amplifier?
