Product Details
Yamaha Black 5.1 Channel Home Theater System, Model YHT497BL
Provides simple operation, yet includes essential capabilities for high definition
home audio video enjoyment, offering popular features like USB input for iPhone
and color on-screen display, as well as a 5.1 channel speaker system with a
powerful 6 ½" 100W subwoofer. This system is also ready for the
future with sophisticated technologies like 4k video pass-through and ECO mode
for lower power consumption.
Features:
- Audio
- 5-channel powerful surround sound (100W per Channel)
- HD Audio format decoding: Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio; Dolby
Digital Plus and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
- 192 kHz/24-bit Burr Brown DACs for all channels
- High dynamic power, low-impedance drive capability
- Full-range piano-black speaker system
- 6-1/2” 100W active subwoofer
- 4K pass-through for next generation super high resolution images
This AV receiver provides advanced HDMI features including 4K pass-through.
4K refers to four times the resolution of a 1080p display. While not yet available,
4K displays and sources are sure to become popular in the future. This receiver
is capable of passing the 4K data from the source to the display, for image
clarity far beyond present standards
- HDMI with 3D and Audio Return Channel
3D means the receiver can handle 3D signal data. The Audio Return Channel
function enables data to be sent and received via the same HDMI cable, so
you can hear the sound from the TV via a single HDMI cable, with no need for
an extra optical cable
- YPAO Sound Optimization for Automatic Speaker Setup
YPAO analyzes the room acoustics and adjusts various audio parameters for
optimum sound in just a few minutes. It’s like having a professional
installer calibrate your system
- USB Digital Connection for iPod and iPhone
A USB port on the front panel allows convenient connection of an iPod/iPhone,
which also charges when connected. Because the digital signal from the iPod/iPhone
is transmitted directly to the AV receiver, there is no signal loss or interference,
so you enjoy the best possible sound quality. In addition, you can use the
receiver’s remote control unit to operate the iPod/iPhone music playback
functions
- SCENE for One-Touch Start
Pressing a SCENE button powers on the AV Receiver and selects the input source
and DSP mode. You can re-set the buttons for different sources by selecting
a source and DSP mode, then pressing a SCENE button for more than three seconds
- HD Audio with CINEMA DSP
Yamaha’s exclusive CINEMA DSP technology supports playback of HD Audio
(Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, etc.), providing natural and expansive
sound imaging
- HDMI CEC for Easy Operation
Another benefit of HDMI is the availability of CEC functionality. When the
unit is connected to a CEC compatible TV, it will turn on and off together
with the TV, and you can use the TV remote to control the volume. CEC also
provides advanced functionality with other components. For example, you can
use the receiver’s remote unit to control player functions like Skip
and Stop
- *All connected devices must be HDMI CEC compatible. Some CEC compatible
TVs/players may not work
- Subwoofer Trim for Improved Sound Imaging
The Subwoofer Trim control enhances the low frequencies by avoiding overlap
with the front speaker output. This will result in a cleaner, more focused
sound stage while providing a seamless frequency response. When subwoofer
frequency overlap occurs in conventional systems, the overall sound is “pushed”
toward the subwoofer. Subwoofer Trim takes care of this by separating the
low subwoofer frequencies cleanly, thus stabilizing the front stage while
providing a well-balanced enhanced bass sound
- Compressed Music Enhancer
When music is encoded into a digitally compressed format like MP3, the frequency
response suffers. Yamaha’s Compressed Music Enhancer employs sophisticated
digital signal processing using exclusive algorithms to restore what was lost,
so the music always sounds the way it should.
Adaptive DRC (Dynamic Range Control)Adaptive DRC automatically adjusts the
dynamic range of the sound according to the volume level. This ensures that
you hear clear dialogue and vocals, and all sound effects at comfortable levels.
There is no need to adjust the volume level as you listen; everything from
whispers to big explosions will be heard clearly and comfortably at the same
volume setting. It also tones down loud TV commercials, and is ideal for low-volume,
late-night listening, when you do not want to disturb others
- ECO mode lowers power consumption by 20%
Yamaha’s new ECO mode reduces power consumption by about 20%. It can
be set from the top of the GUI menu
- * Compared to power consumption when ECO mode is off (Yamaha measurement)
- Selectable Auto Power Down
Auto Power Down lets you save energy by selecting to turn off the power after
2, 4, 8 or 12 hours
- Low Standby Power Consumption
Yamaha makes its receivers eco-friendly with a low standby power consumption
of 0.3W
