MCR-232

Yamaha took care to design the receiver and speakers to perfectly complement each other. The receiver uses a high efficiency Yamaha digital amp that ensures accurate, lowdistortion sound, which is delivered by new-design speakers.

The 2-way bass reflex speakers employ 11cm woofer units and are supported by three legs that prevent external vibrations from affecting the sound. The result is strong bass and rich midrange and treble, so you enjoy high sound quality with good imaging.

Speaker cabinets vibrate, degrading sound quality. To overcome this, Yamaha drew upon its musical instrument manufacturing expertise to develop an internal structure called VCCS (Vibration Control Cabinet Structure), which uses strategically placed pieces of a composite material that provides excellent vibration isolation performance.

The receiver features extra-large, screwtype terminals to ensure high quality, reliable connection.

The iPhone/iPod dedicated dock provides a digital connection, which means that the digital signal from the iPhone/iPod is transmitted directly to the receiver. This minimises noise interference and allows use of the MCR-232 DAC, rather than the /iPhone/iPod DAC, resulting in more precise sound reproduction.

A USB terminal on the top of the unit makes it quick and easy to plug in an iPad or other USB device. The digital connection permits fast, lossfree signal transmission.

The subwoofer out terminals lets you connect a subwoofer to enjoy enhanced bass power and response. The AUX-in terminal allows connection of other audio components.

The speakers have a beautiful, high quality finish that looks elegant in any setting. The speaker grilles are also designed for good looks, but can be removed for a more basic appearance.

The aluminium hairline finish of the front panel and knobs also contributes to the over high class appearance of the system.

The remote control has a simplified design that makes it extremely easy to use.
