	High Sound Quality
	Digital ToP-ART and High Current Amplification
	The Digital ToP-ART design concept combines the latest and best technologies, parts and circuit designs to maximize sound quality. High Current Amplification uses superior components to achieve high current power with low impedance from input to output.

	Pure Direct Mode
	Pure Direct is a special listening mode that provides the highest possible signal purity. It can be used for both analogue and digital sources, with two-channel or multi-channel inputs. When it is selected, the signal follows the most direct path and power to the video circuit is shut down. Certain modes are not operational and even the display is turned off, lighting for only a few seconds when a function is used.

	Easy to Use
	YPAO Automatically Sets Best Sound for Any Room, Any Speaker Placement
	Yamaha’s YPAO system uses a small microphone and sophisticated equalization to automatically set the best sound for any room, no matter where the speakers are. The RX-V1500 has an improved system that is faster (less than three minutes).

	Oil-Damped Hidden Control Panel
	includes S-Video input and optical digital input terminals for connecting game machines, digital equipment, and so on.

	Custom Installation Compatibility
	The RX-V1500 offers a variety of features that make it easy to achieve flexible custom installation in three different rooms (zones) of the home. Zone 2 power amplifier assignability and speaker terminals mean that Zone 2 can be fully independent with its own 2-channel power, while you still enjoy 5.1-channel sound in the main room. The video signal can be output to Zone 2 as well. Zone 3 has its own volume control, and there is an IR port for remote control capability and a trigger output for automatic power-on of other components. There is also an RS-232C interface for using a touch-screen controller or a PC to configure the receiver.

Surround Realism

Audio Delay (0–240 ms)

The YSS-930 LSI in the RX-V1500 provides synchronization of images and sound, which is called lip-sync. Most home cinema LSIs do not have the necessary speed and precision to handle this, but the YSS-930 is able to do it accurately. What’s more, by using the Audio Delay mode, lip-sync parameters can be adjusted whenever necessary.

Quad-Field/Tri-Field CINEMA DSP and 31 Surround Programmes

Yamaha’s ultra-sophisticated Quad-Field and Tri-Field CINEMA DSP technology creates thrillingly realistic soundscapes in your room. 31 surround programmes provide full format compatibility and extensive listening choices.

	High Picture Quality
	Component Video Up Conversion
	Up video conversion (composite to S-Video and component, S-Video to component) as well as down video conversion (S-video to composite) is automatically applied to incoming signals. This means that you simply use the best possible cable between the receiver and the TV, and then whatever the source is, you are assured of getting the highest possible quality.
