THX Select2-certified home theater receiver with HDMI switching and upconversion
Yamaha designed this exceptionally powerful and versatile RX-V2600 to make the most of every entertainment source in your system. This THX Select2-certified receiver teams up a whopping 130 watts x 7 channels of Yamaha's clean, high-current amplification with exclusive THX surround processing, ensuring spectacular surround sound from all your movies, TV shows, and music. And that's just the beginning — this receiver is packed with great features, including HDMI switching, digital upconversion for all your non-HD video sources, XM Radio readiness, and flexible three-room/three-source capability.
HDMI digital video switching and upconversion
The 'V2600's HDMI compatibility lets you switch easily between two high-def sources — like an HDTV receiver and an HD DVD or Blu-ray player — while maintaining phenomenal picture quality for both. And thanks to analog-to-HDMI conversion you can send all your video sources to your television via a single HDMI cable — a very handy feature, especially if you've got a wall-mounted TV.
This receiver also offers digital video upconversion that can convert any non-HD video source into your choice of 720p or 1080i resolution, to more closely match the capabilities of your HDTV. This gives an exceptionally crisp, vivid look to your DVDs and older video sources.
Three-room/three-source capability
The 'V2600 also lets you re-assign 2 to 4 surround amplifier channels to power stereo speakers in other rooms, or even on your back porch. This lets you play 3 different audio sources in 3 different areas of your home at the same time, without the need for any additional amplifiers. You can even watch a second video source in one of your two additional listening rooms. Yamaha includes a basic second remote that, when used with an optional remote control extender system gives you system control from your second or third listening room.
Easy, accurate home theater setup
Yamaha's YPAO auto-calibration system enables quick, easy, and remarkably accurate home theater setup. Plug in the included microphone and place it in your favorite seat. The receiver analyzes the size, volume, relative distance, and frequency response of every speaker in your home theater, adjusting the settings for each one individually. In under three minutes, your surround sound is optimized for your specific room and speakers.
Yamaha quality inside and out
Yamaha's meticulous design standards include a rugged anti-resonant chassis, top-notch internal components, and an oversized, low-noise power supply. Eight of Burr-Brown's finest digital-to-analog converters handle your digital sources with extreme precision. All of these features contribute to extremely high standards of signal purity, for audio and video reproduction that's especially precise, powerful, and dynamic.
