Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A3080 review

The AVENTAGE RX-A3080 features a sleek, clean design with an elegant aluminum front panel. Even more importantly, the unit is extremely durable, with internal reinforcement with crossbars in the shape of H. It is also equipped with a wedge Anti Resonance Technology (ART), which is the fifth note in the center of the device that dampens vibrations from the power transformer and elsewhere. This model has less channels. Only 9.2 compared to 11.2 from its opponent. The power output is 150W/8 Ohm. Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A3080

Yamaha CX-A5100 review

The advantage of this unit is that it supports HDCP 2.2 and HDMI 2.0 technology. In addition, it is equipped with a “smart” sound calibration system in accordance with the characteristics of the room and the arrangement of furniture in it. Wireless connectivity is via Bluetooth and WiFi. Also, the device can connect to streaming audio services, such as Spotify, Pandora. Using AirPlay technology, you can connect a smartphone, tablet or other similar device to the device. They can also be controlled by the preamplifier itself. Yamaha CX-A5100
