Overview
Combining an impressive high sound quality with an elegant appearance, the A-S501 is an integrated amplifier that offers the advantage of digital input and a wide range of features.
High sound quality circuit design based on the ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology) concept*
High sound quality circuit design based on the ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology) concept*
ToP-ART Design and ART Base Ensure Optimum Sound When processing and transmission of the audio signal is simple and direct there is less chance of it being affected by noise and distortion. Yamaha’s amplifier design technology called ToP-ART features an I/O (input to output) Direct Symmetrical Design, with left and right channels organised in a straight, symmetrical layout for highest signal purity.
High Quality Parts for Outstanding Audio Performance*
High Quality Parts for Outstanding Audio Performance*
Custom-made power transformer, custom-made block capacitors, two direct signal path speaker relays, one-point grounding system, aluminium-extruded heat sinks and other top-quality parts effortlessly handle demanding audio signal conditions. The quality of each individual part, as well as how they work together, basically determines the sound quality of any component. Yamaha uses only very high quality parts, carefully selected and tested.
Gold-plated Terminals*
Gold-plated Terminals*
This model has gold-plated terminals ensure a high quality connection that prevents signal loss.
Connection for YBA-11 Bluetooth Wireless Adapter*
Connection for YBA-11 Bluetooth Wireless Adapter*
With the YBA-11, you’ll be able to stream music wirelessly from a Bluetooth capable mobile phone or a PC to the Network receiver. Thanks to the digital connection and aptX® audio coding algorithm, you’ll enjoy wireless music streaming with optimum sound quality. You can also conveniently power the YBA-11 via the DC-out connection on the rear panel of the amplifier.
Auto Power Standby Function*
Auto Power Standby Function*
The amplifier has a power management function that detects when it hasn't been used for a long time (about 8 hours) even though the power is on, and automatically shifts it into standby mode. So even if you forget to turn it off, power consumption will be minimised.
