High Sound and Picture Quality Superior Design and Parts The MCR-E810 has a high sound quality design that takes advantage of Yamaha's legendary audio technologies such as 60W x 2 discrete configuration power amps and speakers made of finely tuned cabinets and equipped with carefully selected units. This system also includes a high picture quality progressive compatible CD/DVD player.
It has a discrete construction that precisely places each carefully selected part without dependency on IC chips. The amplifier uses all analog circuits, including the volume section.
While it is compact, it includes high sound quality measures scrupulously designed in every detail: a large power supply transformer, high sound quality parts groups (including new capacitors), a high stiffness body with an octagonal section that is resistant to resonance, and large speaker terminals compatible with banana plugs*.
Speaker Cabinet Has New Design with Innovative Cross-Bracing The cabinet is built with internal crossbracing having a unique wedge structure. R-beveling reduces diffraction effects. This type of cross-braced structure is used in top class speakers and Yamaha engineers are able to make the most of its advantages. It produces a tighter sound and the increased strength cuts down unwanted vibration.
Linear Damping Yamaha's Linear Damping maintains a high, stable damping factor even at frequencies from 10Hz to 20kHz, where it generally tends to fall off. The result is superior articulation of all sounds.
Cosmetic Design Simply, Cosmetic Design Concept This system provides HiFi component-like design that same dedication to sound and design excellence is behind the creation of the top-class component.
Beautiful Yamaha Piano Finish Speakers As the world's leading piano manufacturer, Yamaha has a long history of woodworking expertise. The MCR-E810 speakers have the same luxurious and environmentally friendly finish as our grand pianos.
Advanced Features Easy Operation with GUI (Graphical User Interface) A user-friendly GUI makes operation extremely simple by displaying clearly understandable menus right on the TV or monitor screen. You can use the remote control to select and adjust any function.
40-Station AM/FM Random Access Preset Tuning In addition to utilizing a Direct PLL IF Count Synthesizer Tuning system, this model also makes station selection easy. Users can preset as many as 40 stations for instant one-touch tuning, and with each one the tuning mode (auto or manual) is also memorized.
Subwoofer Out The Subwoofer Out terminal outputs bass frequencies so you can connect a subwoofer. Adding a subwoofer to your system pays big dividends: not only do you get bigger and better bass sound, but the overall sound field has much greater depth and presence.
CD Digital Video DVD Players equipped with CD Digital Video capabilities will be able to play video and sound media that has been compressed together and recorded onto a CD disc.
DVD Video DVD is essentially a large capacity optical video storage media that contains movies or other video content for home entertainment. DVD has become the standard for video publishing by most movie and video studios.
Video CD DVD Players equipped with Video CD capabilities will be able to play video and sound media that has been compressed together using the MPEG 1 standard, and recorded onto a CD disc.
Dolby Digital The most popular 5.1-channel home theater sound system. An improvement over Dolby Pro-Logic in that it offers: 1) Full frequency response in all channels (3Hz — 20kHz), 2) discrete surround channels, and 3) a separate track for bass only, called the Low Frequency Effects channel.
DivX DivX is the video compression codec developed by DivX Networks and based on the MPEG-4 compression format. Its balance of high video quality and low bit rate has made it very popular and quickly established it as the best home video format thus far. The ability to play it on newer DVD models continues to add to its popularity as DivX Networks advances its support to many new household products. This compression technology has the potential for expanding the ways we view video media in much the way MP3 has given us many new ways to listen to music.
