Continuously Variable Loudness Control The R-N500 also features a dedicated loudness control on the front panel which lets you adjust the loudness effect as desired. Separate from the overall volume this controls the balance of the low- & high-frequency sounds providing full tonal range at any volume level compensating for the natural loss in the human ear of high & low frequencies at soft levels. Simple yet Sophisticated Design With a beautifully simple & unique design inherited directly from Yamaha’s Hi Fi audio components the R-N500 also boasts an easy-to-operate button layout.

While not yet available 4K displays & sources are sure to become popular in the future. This receiver is capable of passing the 4K data from the source to the display for image clarity far beyond present standards.HDMI with 3D & Audio Return Channel 3D means the receiver can handle 3D signal data. The Audio Return Channel function enables data to be sent & received via the same HDMI cable so you can hear the sound from the TV via a single HDMI cable with no need for an extra optical cable.HDMI CEC for Easy Operation Another benefit of HDMI is the availability of CEC functionality. When the unit is connected to a CEC compatible TV it will turn on & off together with the TV & you can use the TV remote to control the volume. CEC also provides advanced functionality with other components. For example you can use the receiver’s remote unit to control player functions like Skip & Stop.

Subwoofer Trim for enhanced Sound Imaging The Subwoofer Trim control enhances the low frequencies by avoiding overlap with the front speaker output. This will result in a cleaner more focused sound stage while providing a seamless frequency response. When subwoofer frequency overlap occurs in conventional systems the overall sound is “pushed” toward the subwoofer. Subwoofer Trim takes care of this by separating the low subwoofer frequencies cleanly thus stabilizing the front stage while providing a well-balanced enhanced bass sound. Compressed Music Enhancer When music is encoded into a digitally compressed format like MP3 the frequency response suffers. Yamaha’s Compressed Music Enhancer employs sophisticated digital signal processing using exclusive algorithms to restore what was lost so the music always sounds the way it should. Adaptive DRC (Dynamic Range Control) Adaptive DRC automatically adjusts the dynamic range of the sound according to the volume level. This ensures that you hear clear dialogue & vocals & all sound effects at comfortable levels.
