SAIRESH — Sat, 09 Dec 2023 11:15:25 +0000

METICULOUSLY CRAFTED SOUND FOR YOUR LISTENING LIFESTYLE

To those who relentlessly strive for the best sound. Our R-N1000A delivers total enjoyment of your music content with full-fledged Hi-Fi sound, drawing on the technologies of our top-end model. Featuring Yamaha’s original YPAO sound field correction, high-capacity custom-made transformers, ultra-precise ESS DACs, and a host of other superior parts, the R-N1000A has everything necessary to produce high-quality sound to transform your usual living room into an extraordinary environment—where you can immerse yourself in the music and fully enjoy a space of pure sonic delight.

TRUE SOUND

This is sound that only Yamaha can realize as the only audio brand in the world that handles everything from the moment a sound is created to the time it reaches the human ear. Simply close your eyes and feel the artist performing right there in front of you, and experience the profound sensation of being truly ‘Closer to the Artist.’

The position of the artist and the instrument, and even the delicate nuances and very atmosphere of the performance space are stunningly reproduced just as they are. The resulting soundstage is so incredibly realistic, you’ll feel as if you were watching the performance unfold right in front of you.

Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO)

Environmental factors play an important role in the sonic signature of a room, and with any type of audio. Yamaha’s own YPAO automatic calibration technique, refined over decades of use in Home Theater products, has been optimized for the R-N1000A to deliver the ideal listening environment, as if you were in a professional audio listening room – without requiring any laborious manual setting adjustments. YPAO features precision EQ, which performs exceptionally high-precision equalization with accuracy of up to 192 kHz / 64-bit audio resolution. YPAO R.S.C. (Reflected Sound Control) works in tandem to actively control the important early reflection sounds, automatically adjusting and optimizing how the sound is heard in your room, depending on the materials of the walls and the speaker placement. Which means you can enjoy the profound sound and immersive feeling unique to Hi-Fi audio – right in your own living room.

As opposed to merely producing powerful sound, we pursue a sense of dynamics that express the contrast between stillness and motion in the music-allowing you to feel the intensely deep emotions in the music and immerse yourself in that musical world.

EXPERIENCE THE LEGEND, ENJOY THE MUSICALITY

Yamaha boasts over 60 years of history as an audio brand. And the technology of R-N1000A comes directly from Yamaha’s legendary Hi-Fi design concept ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology), which faithfully maintains the integrity of the audio by combining a meticulously symmetrical left / right circuit layout and signal directness (straightest, shortest signal paths) with a low-vibration chassis of high rigidity, equipped with the special resin frame “Art Base” that absorbs and blocks unnecessary vibration. It maintains sonic purity and dynamism of sound.

DOUBLE BOTTOM CHASSIS

The enclosing structure is further strengthened by a double-bottom chassis and a thick iron damping plate of 1 mm added to the chassis bottom. This eliminates various vibrations that would adversely affect the sound and enhances the expressiveness of the lower frequencies—conveying both the profound power and supple grace of even the performance of a full concert orchestra.

ANTI-RESONANCE FEET

The R-N1000A also employs anti-resonance feet designed under a concept of vibration absorption. By arranging thin curved reinforcing bars on the outer periphery and thick straight reinforcing bars in the center, the vibration energy transmitted from the outside of the leg is effectively dispersed and diminished, while maintaining high central rigidity. These make it possible to reproduce a focused sound that lets you fully feel the rhythm and dynamics of the music.

HIGH-QUALITY PARTS FOR OUTSTANDING AUDIO PERFORMANCE

Custom-made power transformer and block capacitors, one-point grounding system, high-quality audio condensers, and other top-class parts effortlessly handle demanding audio signal conditions. Since the quality of each individual part, as well as how they work together, basically determines the sound quality of any component, Yamaha makes sure that only the most carefully selected and tested parts are used.

This is the relentlessly faithful reproduction of all sounds, from all instruments and all vocals, at all pitches and across the entire spectrum.

Enjoy the full harmony and musicality in the sound even sounds you’ve never heard before.

HIGH-PRECISION, HIGH-PERFORMANCE

The R-N1000A uses the renowned SABRE ES9080Q 384 kHz / 32-bit DAC (from ESS Technology) to deliver superior S/N performance. Combined with Yamaha’s original network module, the unit thoroughly draws out all the sonic merits of high-resolution sound sources, effectively reproducing even the subtle ambience of concert halls and delicate expressive nuances in the sound.

LOW IMPEDANCE CONCEPT

In order to thoroughly eliminate energy loss and degradation of the audio signal, the R-N1000A features thick wires for the ground connection a critical feature that establishes the componentry as being truly premium Hi-Fi. In addition, a screw connection is adopted for the output from the power amplifier section in order to strengthen the ground, which is important for audio quality. This gives the R-N1000A increased signal-to-noise performance, making it possible to reproduce sound with full clarity.

GOLD-PLATED TERMINALS

Gold-plated terminals ensure a high quality connection that prevents signal loss. The R-N1000A have gold-plated speaker terminals and input terminals.

The R-N1000A is equipped with Yamaha’s original MusicCast network system. Moreover, it is compatible with a variety of streaming services such as Amazon Music HD and Spotify, letting you fully enjoy exceptionally high-quality sound unique to today’s high-resolution and lossless sound sources, with complete fidelity. You can also use it to stream Apple Music with Airplay 2.

With the Compressed Music Enhancer, highs and especially lows are richer and smoother, bringing music back to life to be as close to the original as possible.

Whole Home Audio: Redefined

Ingenious Integration

Designed from the ground up for custom installation, the “QS” represents the ultimate integrated solution for filling every room in a home with extraordinary sound.

Slim Yet Powerful

The QS packs four rooms of audio streaming and eight channels of audiophile-grade amplification into a remarkably slim, 1U-high enclosure, allowing you to fully-optimise your valuable rack real estate.

Expands Easily

Multiple QS units can be used together to expand up to 32 zones with simultaneous playback of linked groups up to 20 zones each. In addition, the QS offers four zone pre-outs that enable it to be combined with the other Yamaha amps to provide more power or more speaker coverage for large areas in a home. The pre-outs may also be used to connect powered subwoofers or subwoofer amps.

A Family Like No Other

As a member of the MusicCast family, the QS integrates seamlessly with Yamaha AV receivers, sound bars and more. Now everything – from a surround sound home theatre to a bedroom TV system to in-ceiling speakers in the kitchen – can all work beautifully together.

Stream It All

Access all of your favourite music, including built-in streaming services and music libraries on smartphones, tablets and network-attached storage devices.

(Streaming service availability varies by region and may change or be discontinued without notice.)

Plays Nicely with Everything

Want to hear TV sound or vinyl records throughout the home? Link to a MusicCast receiver, sound bar or turntable to access audio from virtually any source.

3rd-Party Control

The QS supports IP control by 3rd-party control systems used in many of today’s most advanced smart homes.

There’s an (Amazing) App for It

It’s also easy to set up and control with the free MusicCast app, which offers unique personalisation features including the ability to assign custom images to rooms, and to rename, rearrange and hide sources.

Engineered to Sound Extraordinary

Audiophile-Grade Amplification

No ordinary amp, the QS employs ultra-efficient ICEpower integrated circuits to deliver eight channels of pristine, musically-dynamic digital amplification at 50 watts/channel (8 ohms) with an outstanding 10 Hz to 22 kHz (+0/-3 dB) frequency response and 106 dB signal-to-noise ratio. It is 4 ohm capable at 100 watts/channel and bridgeable to 200 watts/channel (8 ohms).

Goodbye Ground Loop Hum

The curse of the custom integrator: ground loop hum, a common and vexing side effect of connecting a bunch of electronics together in a rack. The QS takes care of it with a brilliantly-engineered differential circuit design. Sometimes it’s what you don’t hear that sounds the most amazing.

High-Resolution Audio

Experience every detail of your favourite recordings. The QS supports high-res audio playback up to 192 kHz/24-bit, and employs the same premium ESS Sabre DACs (Digital-to-Analogue Converters) and PML capacitors used in our flagship AVENTAGE AV receivers.

Uniquely Yamaha

The audio performance of the QS is further enhanced with a suite of exclusive Yamaha technologies, including our Compressed Music Enhancer, Advanced Bass Extension Processing and volume adaptive EQ. The result – it always sounds great.

Custom-Built for Custom

Versatile Installation

Mount it in a rack with the included ears or remove the ears for shelf installations. The included magnetic faceplate discourages tampering and provides the perfect cosmetic finish.

Custom-Friendly Connectivity and Control

The QS is truly made for custom integration, with Euroblock-style speaker connectors, dual RJ-45 Ethernet ports and a detachable AC cable for smart connectivity, and IP, IR and 12 V Trigger Out jacks for versatile control.

Three Ways to Handle External Sources

In addition to supporting external sources through linking with MusicCast receivers and sound bars, the QS offers an Aux input that can be selected for playback in any zone and a Cut-In input that automatically senses an input signal and temporarily overrides the selected source. This gives you flexibility to integrate media players, CD changers or even paging systems. Thru-Outs let you set up a bus to additional QS units.

Unique Chime Generator

The Chime contact closure inputs let you generate a doorbell chime or, for example, an alert for a gate from a common switch. Output zones and chime sound selection can be configured using the Web Setup.

Web Setup

Access Basic or Advanced settings via a Web Setup menu and store commonly-used profiles for faster configuration of future projects.
