  • Night Listening Enhancer (Cinema/Music) and SILENT CINEMA

    Direct Stereo Mode

    Direct stereo causes the input stereo signal to bypass the DSP circuitry so the pure signal is output wihtout any processing or data loss whatsoever.

    Audio Delay

    The Audio Delay function for Lip Sync, matches the audio to the timing of the output of the video on the screen, correcting the audio-video time lag.

    Silent Cinema

    Yamaha has added HRTF and "Virtual" technology to create a realistic surround movie effect using standard, two-channel headphones.

    Night Listening Mode

    Enjoy explosions, music and sound effects without disturbing others. In this mode, sound effects will not overpower dialogue with sudden increases in volume levels.

    Subwoofer Crossover Selection

    The HTR5840 provides a choice of 9 subwoofer crossover frequencies: 40, 60, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 160 and 200 Hz.

    DVD-Audio / Super Audio CD Ready

    The HTR5840's rear panel has input jacks to accommodate an external decoder, making the receiver ready for any other 5.1 channel format, including DVD-Audio and SACD.

    Analog Mixdown

    Analog Mixdown allows you to enjoy 5.1-chanel sound from only four speakers - two front and two surround. The centre channel and subwoofer frequencies are mixed into the two front channels.

    40-station Direct Access Preset Tuning

    Up to 40 Preset AM and FM stations can be programmed (8 stations x 5 groups). These groupings make it easy for family members to access their favourite stations or to have musical genres, such as all jazz stations, grouped together.

    For convenience and versatility, the receiver can switch back and forth between two sets of speakers at the touch of a button.
