Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A1080 review

The AVENTAGE Series RX-A1080 features a smart, minimalist design with an elegant aluminum front panel. More importantly, the device is exceptionally sturdy - from the inside it is reinforced with stiffeners in the form of the letter “H”. The device is also equipped with anti-resonance technology Anti Resonance Technology (A.R.T.), which is the fifth leg in the center of the device, which absorbs vibration from a power amplifier and other sources. Thanks to these features, the device is more stable.
