A system for all your music components
Love music? Yamaha has a long tradition of building stereo gear that simply sounds great. The R-N600A has plenty of wired and wireless connection options for playing your favorite sources (including vinyl), plus a built-in AM/FM tuner for listening to radio stations.
Audiophile elements in a pared-down stereo receiver
The R-N600A features Yamaha's Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology (or "ToP-ART"), a design principle used in several of the company's more advanced receivers. It has symmetrical left/right circuit layout, signal directness, and a vibration-dampening chassis. A high-end ESS SABRE DAC handles your digital music sources, and Pure Direct mode bypasses the receiver's tone controls to give you sound that's as close to the original recording as possible. Top it off with plenty of power and the result is impeccable sound.
Physical connections galore
This receiver has you covered when it comes to inputs and outputs. There are four pairs of analog stereo RCA line-level audio inputs for components like CD players and outboard DACs, plus a dedicated phono input for connecting a turntable with a moving magnet cartridge. There's a mono RCA output for adding a powered subwoofer to your two-channel system.
For folks that like to dabble in re-recording their music, the R-N600A has two RCA line-level audio outputs. Hook up a cassette deck, CD recorder or even an old-school reel-to-reel machine for that vintage audio experience.
There are plenty of digital connections, too. There's an Ethernet port for connecting to your home network, and additional digital sources like a TV and Blu-ray player can be connected via a pair of optical inputs. Two coaxial inputs let you use the high-quality built-in DAC with compatible audio components.
Streaming and control options via Yamaha's MusicCast system
The R-N600A has handy built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for streaming music from a computer or mobile device. Apple AirPlay® 2 lets you stream directly from an iPhone® or iPad® and ask Siri to play Apple Music. And built-in MusicCast provides access to your local files as well as popular streaming services like Amazon Music HD, TIDAL, Spotify, and more (subscription required for some services). Plus, voice control using Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant devices makes it easy to control all MusicCast connected devices.
