9 channel Amplifier: Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 features 9 channel power amplifier. It is rated at 150 W (8 Ω, 20 Hz - 20 kHz, 2 channel driven) and is able to drive 4 ohm speakers.

    Speaker Configurations

    Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050's and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030's amplifiers can be assigned for different speaker configurations.

    • Dolby Atmos Configurations: The following speaker configurations are supported for Dolby Atmos:
    • Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050: 5.2.2, 5.2.4, 7.2.2 with internal amplifier and 7.2.4 with addition of external 2 channel amplifier.
    • Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030: Not supported.
    • DTS:X Configurations: The following speaker configurations are supported for DTS:X:
    • Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050: The speaker configurations for DTS:X are the same as for Dolby Atmos - 5.2.2, 5.2.4, 7.2.2 with internal amplifier and 7.2.4 with addition of external 2 channel amplifier.
    • Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030: Not supported.
    • Configurations without height channels: There are also other speaker configurations available which do not include height channels:
    • Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050: 5.2, 7.2 with internal amplifier.
    • Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030: 5.2, 7.2 with internal amplifier.
    • Bi-Amp: You can bi-amp Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050's and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030's front left and right speakers. During bi-amplification two amplifiers are used for one speaker. One amplifier powers the midrange and tweeter section of the speaker and another amplifier powers the low frequency woofers. Each amplifier is less loaded and performs better. In order to use this feature speakers must have 2 pairs of connectors.

    Dolby Atmos

    Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 supports Dolby Atmos. It is a cinematic audio format in which sounds exist as individual entities, called audio objects. In Dolby Atmos, any sound can exist as an independent audio object, free of channel restrictions. They can be precisely placed and moved anywhere in your room, including overhead, to flow above and around you in three-dimensional space. Through the use of audio objects, overhead sound, and all the richness, clarity, and power of Dolby sound, Dolby Atmos turns your room into an amazing place for entertainment. The format supports up to 128 simultaneous independent audio objects in a mix for rich, realistic, and breathtaking sound. It recreates the director's original concept through descriptive metadata to provide customized playback for home theater and delivers sounds above you through overhead speakers, special upward-firing Dolby Atmos speakers, or a Dolby Atmos enabled sound bar.

    • Dolby Surround Upmixer: Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 supports Dolby Surround Upmixer. If the content is not mixed in Dolby Atmos then the Dolby surround upmixer will expand the audio to all channels including ceiling speakers. The upmixer has replaced the Dolby Pro Logic II family with improved upmixing algorithms.

    DTS:X

    Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 supports DTS:X. A technique used in DTS:X is similar to the one used in Dolby Atmos. Instead of a fixed number of channels, DTS:X defines object locations from the listener in polar coordinates. An a/v receiver then dynamically renders sound according to the current speaker configuration. The speaker layout employed by DTS:X is the sum of Dolby Atmos and Auro-3D. It has standard 7.1 channel base layer, a 5 channel height layer above the base layer on the front and side walls, and 3 rows of speakers on the ceiling.

    • DTS Neural:X: Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 supports DTS Neural:X which is an advanced upmixer that can take non DTS:X content and upmix it to the DTS:X speaker layout. It has replaced the DTS Neo family with improved flexibility.

    Sound Processing

    • Adaptive DRC: Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 feature Adaptive DRC (Dynamic Range Control) which automatically adjusts the dynamic range of the sound according to the volume level. This ensures that you hear clear dialog and vocals, and all sound effects at comfortable levels. There is no need to adjust the volume level as you listen; everything from whispers to big explosions will be heard clearly and comfortably at the same volume setting. It also tones down loud TV commercials, and is ideal for low-volume, late-night listening, when you do not want to disturb others.
    • Compressed Music Enhancer: Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 feature Compressed Music Enhancer which enhances the quality of the music files with lossy compression.

    Room Calibration

    Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 comes with YPAO (R.S.C. with 3D, Multipoint and Angle measurement) and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 comes with YPAO (R.S.C. with Multipoint and Angle measurement) room correction system.

    • YPAO: The Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) function detects speaker connections, measures the distances from them to your listening position(s), and then automatically optimizes the speaker settings, such as volume balance and acoustic parameters, to suit your room.

    Video Section

    HDMI

    Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 come with 8 HDMI inputs. It has 2 outputs - 1 for MAIN and 1 for Sub/Zone2/ZONE4.

    • 4K/60Hz Passthrough: On both receivers all inputs pass up to 4K 60p 4:4:4 video signal.
    • 4K Upscaling: Both receivers can upscale up to 4K 60p 4:4:4 from HDMI and analog sources.
    • Analog To HDMI Upconversion: Both receivers support analog to HDMI Upconversion, so you can input your analog video sources and output them digitally via HDMI. This means that you will need only one HDMI cable to connect to your TV.
    • HDCP 2.2 Copy Protection: Both receivers are HDCP 2.2 compliant which is a requirement for 4K/HDR copy-protected content transmission.
    • 3D Ready: Both receivers are able to pass 3D video through HDMI.

    HDR (High Dynamic Range)

    Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 supports HDR10

    Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 does not support HDR.

    High dynamic range video has greater dynamic range than standard dynamic range (SDR) video with brighter whites and deeper blacks. The result is greater contrast and more details in dark and bright areas, better color and depth.

    • HDR10: HDR10 uses the wide-gamut Rec. 2020 color space. It sends static metadata via video stream to the TV which calibrates its screen brightness and color according to that. HDR10 supports 10-bit color which corresponds to 1024 shades of the primary RGB colors. It is technically limited to a maximum of 10,000 nits peak brightness, however common HDR10 contents are mastered with peak brightness from 1,000 to 4,000 nits.

    Inputs and Outputs

    Audio

    • Phono Input: There is an MM phono input on Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 with built-in phono stage for connecting the moving magnet cartridge output of the turntable directly to the receiver.
    • 7.1 Multichannel Input: In case you have a high quality Blu-Ray or a DVD player with multichannel analog outputs you may connect it to a 7.1 multichannel analog inputs of Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 and use high quality DACs of the player instead of the ones in the receiver.
    • Analog Pre-Outs: Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 and Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 have 11.2 preamplifier outputs which allow you to connect the receivers to the external power amplifiers. You may want to use a high quality external amplifier for certain channels, usually for front L/R and center, and use the receiver to power the rest. Also, both receivers have 11 channel processing but have only 9 channel amplifiers, so they need external amplifiers connected to the analog pre-outs in order to reach their maximum speaker configurations.
    • Analog Line Inputs and Outputs: There are 8 pair of line inputs on Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 and 9 pair of line inputs on Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 for connecting sources with analog outputs. There is also 1 pair of line outputs on Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030.
    • Digital Inputs: 3 optical inputs and 3 coaxial inputs are available on Yamaha Aventage RX-A3050 and 4 optical inputs, 1 optical output and 3 coaxial inputs are available on Yamaha Aventage RX-A3030 for digital audio connections.
