question

I am considering buying a Yamaha A-S501 Integrated Amplifier (Silver) from B&H. I have only one question:According to the manual (see page 9 ), in the rear of the equipment there are Audio input/output jacks Used to connect external components, such as a tuner,etc. Are they really audio output jacks? or only input jacks? Can I connect, for instance, a stereo transmitter for headphones?or similar equipments?Carlos
Asked by: Anonymous
Jacks are all there. Headphones in the front and more in the back of the unit. Don't forget to buy the blue tooth device. Works great with Apple products.I have owned Yamaha for the last 40 years. You can't go wrong with this purchase in my opinion.

Can you add an equalizer? Does it have a tape monitor function?
Asked by: John
There is a channel on this integrated amplifier with a record out, so you could connect an equilizer into this system. Oherwise you would have to connect the equilizer between one component, such a CD player, and the amplifier.

Will this amp play all cds in multi-channel ...

Will this amp play all cds in multi-channel stereo.I notice it does not decode like 5.1 receivers.I am looking to upgrade my sound system.Will it sound better then the sony STR-1080 set to (multi channel stereo) with decent speakers?I dont have much experience with sound systems.THANKS,JOE.
Asked by: joseph
This is a stereo amplifier (2 channel only) So with two speakers connected it will sound the same or slightly better than the SONY with just two speakers connected. it will not offer you any simulated surround effect as the SONY might.
