    YPAO R.S.C. with Multi-point measurement and Precision EQ

    YPAO R.S.C. analyzes the room acoustics with the included YPAO microphone to tune your system for the best sound in your unique room. It employs R.S.C. (Reflected Sound Control) to correct early reflections for studio-quality surround sound. YPAO 3D provides automatic sound parameter optimization that maximizes the 3D sound field effectiveness of CINEMA DSP HD3 as well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. 64-bit precision EQ calculation achieves the most natural room acoustics possible.

    Dolby Atmos/DTS:X

    Compatibility with these amazing sound technologies creates an extraordinary experience. They deliver breathtakingly rich and realistic surround sound, positioning and moving individual sounds to any virtual point in your room, including objects moving overhead. Experience the overwhelming realistic movement and immersion in videos — right in your home.

    Zone 2, 3 and 4

    You can transmit video or audio content to a TV or home theater system in another room (Zone 2, 3 and 4) via HDMI. This lets you enjoy viewing and listening to the same main room content (where the AV receiver is installed), or even different content.

    The CX-A5200 features two of the latest ESS SABRE PRO Premier DACs (ES9026 PRO) delivering state-of-the-art 32-bit performance. Further, the DACs also minimize noise levels and achieve an exceptional signal-to-noise ratio.

    Customers say

    Customers like the sound quality, build quality and quality of the av receiver. For example, they mention that it sounds even better, the bass was nice and tight and that SACD/DSD is the highest and best form of audio reproduction available to us today. That said, they say it's built like a tank and that it'll last a long time.

    Item damaged because of poor packaging from Yamaha as always.
    1 Star
    Item damaged because of poor packaging from Yamaha as always.
    Update on 2/1/2020:I returned and good a new one. Guess what? This time around the wifi connector was not bent, but wifi antenna is cracked out. I just cannot believe how someone can even install the antenna and ship an expensive preamp with a poor quality Styrofoam material. One wifi antenna is broken. Please see how Yamaha has cheaped out on the internal packaging on their premium line on the pictures I have shared. Changing the review from 2 stars to 1. Hate Yamaha for their ignorance.Old update:This review is for Yamaha's packaging. Giving 2 stars because of brand loyalty. I am usually not that critical about packaging. I just cannot take this crappy packing from Yamaha anymore.I have always had bad experiences with Yamaha's packaging. Their Styrofoam is the worst compared to all the leading brands out there. I own and have owned quite a lot of gear from major brands like Mcintosh, Rotel, Marantz, Yamaha, Outlaw audio, Monolith, Harman Kardon etc. Yamaha's packaging is the WORST compared to all other brands out there. Yamaha puts so much effort on the actual item but doesn't care much about the packaging. All the Yamaha products that I have owned and currently own had broken Styrofoam when shipped to me starting from Yamaha RX A850, RX A1070, AU 671, CD S2100 etc. CX A5200 is no different. You pay a premium price for a gear and all you get in return is a crappy styrofoam that can easily damage the gear. I bought the unit from an authorized retailer online. It's a head ache to send it back and wait for a replacement.@Yamaha - I am ready to pay extra for premium packaging. All I am looking for is a strong styrofoam that just lasts until the unit reaches the destination safely. Double boxing of expensive gears can do only good for Yamaha.
