FRONT PANEL A/V INPUTS
For easy connection of a camcorder or other A/V components.
DUAL CENTER CHANNEL OUTPUTS
For utilizing two center channel speakers for a larger system or with a big screen television.
SUBWOOFER OUT WITH LPF
Allows for direct subwoofer connection. 200Hz Low Pass Filter ensures best possible subwoofer performance.
35MM DOLBY PRO-LOGIC ENHANCED
Another unique Yamaha DSP program that creates the same type of sound you experience in movie theaters with multi-speaker arrays.
8 DSP PROGRAMS
In addition to Yamaha's unique Dolby Pro Logic Enhanced (35 mm Movie Theater) and Dolby Pro Logic Surround Programs, the RX-V590 offers six HiFi DSP programs: Concert Video, Concert Hall, Rock Concert, Disco and Stadium, and a Mono-movie program.
YSS-203 LARGE SCALE INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
Yamaha's amazingly powerful, compact LSI provides extremely accurate Dolby Pro-Logic decoding and digital sound field processing.
58 KEY LEARNING REMOTE
Lets you program and control additional components such as a VCR, Laserdisc player, or TV.
3 AUDIO AND 4 A/V INPUTS
This receiver lets you hook up not only three audio components, but four audio/video units as well. All providing extensive system connectability and room for growth.
LINEAR DAMPING FACTOR CIRCUIT
A linear damping factor of 80 (8 ohms 20 - 20 kHz) means plenty of ability to stop the speaker cone from vibrating when the signal stops. The result is clear crisp pure sound and significantly improved frequency response.
40 STATION RANDOM ACCESS PRESET TUNING
Preset stations can be grouped in five sets of eight, according to AM and FM, or musical genre, or any order you desire.
SLEEP TIMER
Switches unit off, after up to two hours of play in :30 increments.
A/B SPEAKER SELECTOR
Allows use of one or both sets of speakers.
2-WAY BINDING POST SPEAKER TERMINALS
Banana plug compatible on front channels. Permits the use of a variety or speaker wires and connectors.
REMOTE CONTROLLABLE MOTOR-DRIVEN MASTER VOLUME CONTROL
Let's you see and hear your volume adjustment right from your seat.
