The RX-V3900 can convert 480p signals to HD resolutions (720p, 1080p), and is one of the first in its price point to offer the benefits of superior up-scaling technologies courtesy of Anchor Bay Technologies.

In addition, the RX-V3900 allows video composite, S-video and component signals to be up-converted to HDMI output, with a TBC (Time Base Corrector) that stabilises the video signal. A video de-interlacer, superior to any other in this class of receiver, effectively delivers best-quality progressive video images.

Worthy successor to the RX-V3800, the RX-V3900 features powerful 7-channel amplification and employs Yamaha’s Digital ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology) design concept to maximise digital sound quality, with several operation modes that provide short, direct signal paths for even greater sound clarity. For true audiophiles, Yamaha’s upgraded Pure Direct Switch now has a zero Intermediate Frequency (IF) and low-jitter Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) circuit, and provides high quality stereo sound reproduction.

Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimiser (YPAO) completely simplifies the setup process for your home theatre by automatically analysing room acoustics and setting parameters for optimum sound quality at the listening position, all at the touch of a button. The entire process takes less than three minutes––and with YPAO, you can be assured of ‘professionally calibrated’ surround sound quality. Six YPAO settings can be stored in the receiver’s memory.
