        7. Speaker Configurations

        Yamaha RX-A810's and Yamaha RX-A880's amplifiers can be assigned for different speaker configurations.

        • Dolby Atmos Configurations: The following speaker configurations are supported for Dolby Atmos:
        • Yamaha RX-A810: Not supported.
        • Yamaha RX-A880: 5.2.2 with internal amplifier.
        • DTS:X Configurations: The following speaker configurations are supported for DTS:X:
        • Yamaha RX-A810: Not supported.
        • Yamaha RX-A880: The speaker configurations for DTS:X are the same as for Dolby Atmos - 5.2.2 with internal amplifier.
        • Configurations without height channels: There are also other speaker configurations available which do not include height channels:
        • Yamaha RX-A810: 5.2, 7.2 with internal amplifier.
        • Yamaha RX-A880: 5.2, 7.2 with internal amplifier.
        • 2-ch Bi-Amp: Both models are able to bi-amp up to 2 main channels simultaneously. 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.

        8. Immersive Audio Formats

        Dolby Atmos

        Yamaha RX-A880 supports Dolby Atmos.

        • Dolby Surround Upmixer: Yamaha RX-A880 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 RX-A880 supports DTS:X.

        • DTS Neural:X: Yamaha RX-A880 features 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.
        • DTS Dialog Control: Yamaha RX-A880 has DTS Dialog Control. This function adjusts the dialog levels during playback of the DTS:X stream. It allows you to separately increase the dialog levels in contrast with the background sound and hear dialog easily even under noisy circumstances.

        9. HDMI

        Yamaha RX-A810 comes with 8 HDMI inputs. It has 2 outputs which work parallelly and output the same signal.

        Yamaha RX-A880 comes with 7 HDMI inputs. It has 2 outputs which work parallelly and output the same signal.

        • 1080/60p Passthrough on Yamaha RX-A810: All inputs pass up to 1080p video signal.
          4K/60Hz Passthrough on Yamaha RX-A880: All inputs pass up to 4K/60p 4:4:4 video signal.
        • 1080p Upscaling on Yamaha RX-A810: It can upscale up to 1080p * from HDMI and analog sources.
          4K Upscaling on Yamaha RX-A880: It 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.
        • BT.2020 Color Space: BT.2020 or Rec. 2020 is a color standard which delivers a wider color gamut compared to Rec. 709. It covers approximately 75% of the total visual spectrum while the Rec. 709 covers only 35% (available on Yamaha RX-A880 only).
        • HDCP 2.-1 Copy Protection: Yamaha RX-A880 is HDCP 2.3 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 RX-A810 does not support HDR.

        Yamaha RX-A880 supports HDR10, Dolby Vision and Hybrid Log-Gamma. 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.


        Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC)

        Yamaha RX-A880 supports Audio Return Channel (ARC) which allows the compatible TV to send audio signal to the a/v receiver through the same HDMI cable which is used to send audio and video signals to the TV. So one HDMI cable is used to transfer audio signal in both directions. New Enhanced ARC will support uncompressed audio formats such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio whereas the previous ARC could support only Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, DTS HD, and PCM.

        10. Inputs and Outputs

        Audio

        • Phono Input: There is an MM phono input on Yamaha RX-A810 and Yamaha RX-A880 with built-in phono stage for connecting the moving magnet cartridge output of the turntable directly to the receiver.
        • Analog Pre-Outs: Yamaha RX-A810 and Yamaha RX-A880 have 7.2 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 7 channel processing but have only 7 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 5 pair of line inputs on Yamaha RX-A810 and 4 pair of line inputs on Yamaha RX-A880 for connecting sources with analog outputs. There is also 2 pair of line outputs on Yamaha RX-A810.
        • Digital Inputs: 2 optical inputs and 2 coaxial inputs are available for digital audio connections on both receivers.
        • Headphone Output: There is a 6.3 mm (1/4") headphone output jack on the front panel of each receiver.
