It offers 82W total power, two 3 15/16" woofers, and twenty-one 1 5/8" beam drivers that deliver clear, high frequencies and lifelike imaging.
High-Quality 24-bit Audio Processing
Yamaha's 24-bit digital-to-analog converter is the backbone to the unit's exceptional multichannel audio conversion. By executing an accurate sound-field reproduction and reducing analog noise in the signal path, the YSP-3000 is capable of reproducing an enveloping audio signal that is unsurpassed.
Cinema DSP
Cinema DSP offers digital surround sound without using surround speakers, which comes in handy in custom installations where your room does not have surround-sound speakers.
Compressed Music Enhancer
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.
IntelliBeam Automated Calibration System
By monitoring and analyzing the sound with the microphone included with the YSP-3000, IntelliBeam automatically sets the best beam angles, while optimizing the level and frequency response of each beam.
My Surround Mode
