Product Information
Powerful, lifelike sound meets precision set-up and a rich set of music streaming options, with the versatile Yamaha R-N800A.
All-round Yamaha brilliance
With its vast range of input connectivity, the Yamaha R-N800A makes the ideal hub for your entire home entertainment system. From a games console and PC, to wireless streaming from your smartphone and even taking in a turntable and DAB tuner along the way, this Yamaha simply connects. With its high performance DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor) and unique ToP-ART construction, it’s also faithful to Yamaha’s legendary audio performance. Finally, whatever the room’s acoustics, Yamaha’s advanced YPAO ensures optimal sound quality.
Tunes in to your room for optimal sound quality
Pioneered on its AV receivers, Yamaha’s YPAO (Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimiser) tunes the sound to suit your room. The system measures the shape of your room, wall material and speaker position and then automatically adjusts the sound to maximise the acoustics. RSC (Reflect Sound Control) is also included. This minimises the sonically harmful effect of early-reflected sound. The result of this powerful tech is the best sound possible, whatever your room’s acoustics.
Legendary sound quality
For the best sound quality and minimal distortion, the R-N800A is constructed to Yamaha's ToP-ART principle. ToP-ART design ensures that the signal path is as short and as symmetrical as possible. This results in the highest precision and lowest distortion. The low-vibration chassis is equipped with a resin frame Art Base that, together with the anti-resonance feet, absorbs vibrations for a cleaner sound. A Pure Direct switch bypasses the tone and balance controls for an even more detailed, true-to-life sound quality.
Effortless power
Capable of producing 100 watts per channel, this Yamaha has the power to cope with the most demanding music. Easily powerful enough for large scale, high volume music, the R-N800A is bound to be a party-pleaser. For a boost to the bottom end, simply add your choice of active sub, via the dedicated subwoofer output.
Premium, Hi-Res sound quality
Utilising a superior quality ESS SABRE ES9080Q Ultra DAC, this Yamaha delivers incredibly dynamic, low distortion digital processing. This makes it ideal for Hi-Res music files, which can be played over the network or from your computer to the USB-B socket at the rear. Support for DSD 11.2MHz native playback and up to 32-bit/384kHz PCM files means that you get to hear your premium quality music files at the highest quality possible.
Stream the best music services
Compatible with Amazon Music, Spotify, Pandora, Napster, Tidal, Deezer and Qobuz, the R-N800A is fully equipped for your favourite music streaming service. With Tidal and Qobuz already offering higher resolution playback, it’s now possible to find a streaming service that at least matches the quality of CD and, in some cases, even improves upon it.
MusicCast for music all around your home
The Yamaha R-N800A is part of Yamaha's hugely impressive network audio system, MusicCast. With MusicCast you control all your compatible Yamaha MusicCast products via your smartphone or even Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant by voice*. Play the same music on all the components or split the sound into different zones for different moods in each room; the choice is yours. The MusicCast CONTROLLER app lets you operate the system around your home and change settings quickly and easily. *requires third party Alexa or Google device.
Advanced networking including Apple AirPlay and Bluetooth
As well as MusicCast, this Yamaha is also compatible with Apple AirPlay 2, letting you stream music from your Apple iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad or other compatible Apple device, wirelessly, around your home. Just ask Siri where you want the music to play. For a quick and easy connection with your smartphone, use the Bluetooth connection for easy music streaming.
Connect your turntable, TV and more
Enjoy your vinyl collection by connecting your turntable to the MM (Moving Magnet) input. A TV, games console, CD player with digital output and more can be connected via one of the four digital inputs. For any other sources that you might have, there are three line-level inputs and two outputs for recording.
Internet, DAB and FM radio
Internet radio lets you listen to thousands of radio stations from around the world. With both DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) and FM tuners onboard, this Yamaha is also ideal for listening to conventional radio, too. Select DAB for a vast range of digital radio stations, including the popular BBC 6 Music and 4 Extra. DAB also lets you hear crisp, digital clarity of sound, free from interference. For local stations or a more expansive sound with national stations (roof mounted aerial recommended) FM is also on hand.
Enjoy all your music sources, sounding their very best, with the Yamaha R-N800A.
