Superior Sound that Lives up to the Standards of the PianoCraft Series

The foundation of the MCR-332’s excellent audio performance is a Yamaha-developed digital amp that provides smooth, unforced sound output. The receiver’s separate digital and analog low-noise circuitry ensures thoroughly high sound quality, which is delivered by new-design speakers.

Digital USB Connection for iPad® and Other USB Devices

A USB terminal on the top of the unit makes it quick and easy to plug in an iPad or other USB device. The digital connection permits fast, loss-free signal transmission.

Dock digital connection for iPod® or iPhone®

The iPhone/iPod dedicated dock provides a digital connection, which means that the digital signal from the iPhone/iPod is transmitted directly to the receiver. This minimizes noise interference and allows use of the MCR-332 DAC, rather than the /iPhone/iPod DAC, resulting in more precise sound reproduction.

Front Panel and Knobs Have Aluminum Hairline Finish

The aluminum hairline finish of the front panel and knobs also contributes to the over high class appearance of the system.

Luxurious Piano-Like Finish and Removable Speaker Grilles

Drawing on decades of experience creating fine pianos, Yamaha gives its speakers a beautiful piano-like finish that looks elegant in any setting. The speaker grilles are also designed for good looks, but can be removed for a more basic appearance.

New-Design, High Sound Quality 2-way Bass Reflex Speakers

The 2-way bass reflex speakers use new-design 4-3/8” woofer units, have deep cabinets and are supported by three legs that prevent external vibrations from affecting the sound. The result is powerfully resonant bass and rich mid-range and treble, so you enjoy high sound quality with good imaging.

VCCS Technology Ensures that the Speakers Accurately Reproduce the Sound from the Main Unit

Speaker cabinets vibrate, degrading sound quality. To overcome this, Yamaha drew upon its musical instrument manufacturing expertise to develop an internal structure called VCCS (Vibration Control Cabinet Structure), which uses strategically placed pieces of a composite material that provides excellent vibration isolation performance.

Large-size, Screw Type Speaker Terminals

Both receiver and speakers use these large terminals to ensure high quality, reliable connection.

Subwoofer Output and AUX-in Terminals

The subwoofer out terminals lets you connect a subwoofer to enjoy enhanced bass power and response. The AUX-in terminal allows connection of other audio components.
