Product description

Total Purity Concept
• The Total Purity Concept is designed to encompass high-drive amp technology, high-purity preamplification, anti-vibration technology, and independent, pure power supplies. The receiver has fully discrete power amplifiers that help minimize distortion and adopts pure independent power supplies, allowing dedicated power supplies for the analog and digital circuitry to prevent digital noise from affecting analog circuitry. The anti-vibration heat sinks are designed to suppress vibration from transistors and sound pressure.

Anti-Resonance Technology
• The Anti-Resonance Technology Wedge is a fifth foot in the center of the receiver. It is engineered to dampen vibrations from the power transformer, power transistors, and heat sinks, as well as vibrations that might be caused by the sound from the speakers.

Foundational Design
• The feet of the receiver feature a high-density structure that utilizes both straight and curved ribs to enhance strength and damping performance. This is designed to enhance installation stability and disperse chassis resonance, effectively eliminating external vibration. This helps to enhance low-range response, reduce resonance peaks in the mid- and high-range, and provide dynamic sound and accurate reproduction.

Aluminum Front Panel
• The AVENTAGE RX-A680 features an aluminum front panel to help shield sensitive circuitry from external noise and electronic radiation generated by dimmer switches, fluorescent lighting, video monitors, and the like. This helps ensure optimum sonic performance in a variety of installation environments.

HDR & UHD Support Over HDMI
• This receiver can pass-through UHD video at 60 frames per second, as well as the HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG HDR formats for enhanced contrast and colors.

Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and AirPlay Compatibility
• Built-in Wi-Fi allows you to connect the receiver to your wireless router, simplifying system connections for music streaming or enjoying networked audio from your computer or NAS. Bluetooth connectivity is also onboard, allowing you to stream audio from your compatible device into the receiver, or out from the receiver to another Bluetooth device, such as a pair of headphones.

Dolby Atmos & DTS:X
• These object-based sound technologies are designed to create realistic surround sound, positioning and moving individual sounds to nearly any virtual point in your room, including overhead.

YPAO Sound Calibration
• YPAO (Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer) analyzes the room acoustics and your system, then adjusts various audio parameters in the receiver to provide enhanced sound for your room. By placing the included microphone at your listening position and turning YPAO on, the system will automatically start the tuning setup process for augmented performance in your home.

Control via the MusicCast App
• The free MusicCast app puts control of the receiver into the palm of your hand. Access your sources and streaming services, adjust volume and sound settings, and link with other MusicCast devices for simultaneous playback throughout your home.

Voice Control with Amazon Alexa and MusicCast
• With Alexa voice control integration, all you have to do is ask. Use any Alexa-enabled device, such as your Echo or Echo Dot, to control either the receiver by itself or multiple MusicCast devices throughout your home.

Built-In Streaming Services
• Explore a world of music with built-in streaming services. Syncing your playlists and likes from your smart device to the receiver and discovering new music becomes even easier with the receiver.

Zone B Second-Room Sound
• Zone B output capability allows the receiver to send stereo sound to a second zone, while leaving the main zone with a 5-channel output. The same source will play in both zones – Zone B always mirrors the audio output in the Main Zone.

Phono Input
• Enjoy music from your vinyl collection with your turntable through the dedicated phono input.

Wireless Surround Speakers with Optional Equipment
• Combine the receiver with optional MusicCast wireless speakers and enjoy the convenience of a home theater with wireless surround speakers in a 5.1-channel setup.

MusicCast for Whole-Home Music
• Start with the AVENTAGE RX-A680 receiver in your home theater and expand to other rooms over time with optional MusicCast speakers, soundbars, or hi-fi gear. Stream your music and TV audio throughout the house over your existing Wi-Fi network.
