Natural Sound: The Origin and Inspiration for Our Success.
Dedicated to the Creation of Fine Sound for over a Century.

Yamaha’s involvement with sound began with the production of our first reed organ in 1887. Shortly thereafter, we began making pianos and
other instruments, and today we are the world’s largest producer of musical instruments. We also operate a worldwide music school, design
concert halls and produce innovative electronic instruments. Our audio components have long been recognised as the standard bearers of fine
quality since 1953, and with the development of Digital Sound Field Processing in 1986, we opened a new era in home entertainment. All of
our acoustic and audio expertise is now engineered into LSI’s that we design and manufacture ourselves. These powerful chips are expanding
and enhancing entertainment possibilities in the exciting new field of home theater. Recently, we’ve also introduced state-of-the-art video
components, and now offer everything necessary for the finest in music and movie enjoyment at home.

Building Speakers for Superb Surround Sound
When planning a high quality home theater system, speakers should not be merely an afterthought. The better the speakers, the more fully realized the surround sound effect
will be. At Yamaha, we have been building speakers for 40 years, so movies, concerts and anything you listen to sounds amazingly realistic and lifelike. We accomplish this by
ensuring that our speakers have wide and flat frequency response, wide dynamic range and high S/N ratio.

Digital Home Theater Receivers
Yamaha takes home theater receivers to new levels of quality, versatility and convenience.
The RX-V2700BL is the perfect component to build a high performance home theater system around. Both audio and video quality are
exceptionally high, thanks to features like 1080p compatible HDMI, high-definition video up-scaling and Pure Direct for the best possible sound.
A new circuit isolation layout provides greater rigidity for vibration damping, and the RX-V2700BL has a new special feature: Network Receiver
functions. The RX-V1700BL has nearly the same features and performance. Two great choices for the best in home entertainment.

Only Yamaha could set these goals for a home theater receiver — and achieve them!
The RX-Z9 was developed to achieve three ambitious goals: deliver the highest sound quality, provide the
highest picture quality, and be the easiest receiver to use. We believe we succeeded in all three areas, but
we invite you to judge for yourself — we’re confident that the RX-Z9 will totally satisfy your highest
expectations for a home theater receiver.

A lot of fine craftsmanship goes into Yamaha’s world-renowned pianos, and that same dedication to sound and design
excellence is behind the creation of the award-winning PianoCraft, which includes two speakers and the capability of
adding a subwoofer.
Superior Design and Parts
In addition to high sound quality design that takes advantage of

Yamaha’s legendary audio technologies such as 60W/ch discrete
configuration power amps and speakers made of finely tuned cabinets
and equipped with carefully selected units. This system also includes a
high picture quality CD/DVD player.
It has a discrete construction that precisely places each carefully
selected part without dependency on IC chips. The amplifier uses all
analog circuits, including the volume section.
While it includes high sound quality measures scrupulously designed
in every detail: a large power supply transformer, high sound quality
parts groups (including new capacitors), a high stiffness body with an
octagonal section that is resistant to resonance, and a thick heat sink.

The natural sound of Soavo. Music as it should be heard.

At Yamaha, we love, understand and respect music. We’re sure that you love music, too,

so they should be reproduced with nothing added or taken away. Giving you this
beautiful music experience is the reason we created the Soavo series. Listen to Soavo,
and discover how truly natural music from a speaker can be.
