Yamaha RX-V685BL review

The RX-V685 can pump out 90 watts per channel (8 Ohms) and supports just about any format you can think of (MP3 / WMA / MPEG-4 AAC). It is a 7.2-channeled unit. System YPAO-R.S.C. analyzes the acoustics of the room and measures various characteristics of the speakers, then calibrates the parameters of the audio signals for optimal sounding. The system includes R.S.C. (Reflected Sound Control) to compensate for early reflections in a room in order to create studio-quality sound. And the normalization function of the DSP effects varies the CINEMA DSP processor parameters for reflected sounds. Yamaha RX-V685BL
