Quick, accurate auto setup
The 'V461's automatic speaker setup feature takes the guesswork out of getting great sound. Just plug in the included microphone and place it in your favorite seat. The receiver takes care of the rest, individually adjusting the volume, delay, and EQ settings for each of your home theater speakers. In minutes, your system is configured for optimum performance with your specific speakers and their placement within the room.

Preset "SCENE" buttons for easy operation
Yamaha's special SCENE modes let you get to your entertainment sources in a hurry. Just press one of the four preset SCENE buttons on the receiver's front panel or remote, and the 'V461 automatically switches to the correct input setting and sound mode for DVD viewing, disc listening, TV viewing, or radio listening. Plus, you can individually reprogram each button for different activities of your choice, such as playing video games, listening to MP3s, and more.

iPod integration
When you add the optional Yamaha YDS-10 dock to this receiver, your iPod becomes a fully integrated component in your A/V system. You can view its menu on your TV and select songs, photos, or videos using the receiver's remote. Switch on Yamaha's special audio mode to enhance the sound of compressed music files, and you're ready to enjoy your entire digital music library through your best speakers.
