Yamaha R-N1000A Network Receiver Amplifier + Dali Opticon 6 Mk2 Floor Standing Speakers

Yamaha Parametric Room Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO™)

Environmental factors play an important role in the sonic signature of a room, and with any type of audio. Yamaha’s own YPAO™ automatic calibration technique, refined over decades of use in Home Theater products, has been optimized for the R-N1000A to deliver the ideal listening environment, as if you were in a professional audio listening room - without requiring any laborious manual setting adjustments. YPAO™ features precision EQ, which performs exceptionally high-precision equalization with accuracy of up to 192 kHz / 64-bit audio resolution. YPAO™ R.S.C. (Reflected Sound Control) works in tandem to actively control the important early reflection sounds, automatically adjusting and optimizing how the sound is heard in your room, depending on the materials of the walls and the speaker placement. Which means you can enjoy the profound sound and immersive feeling unique to Hi-Fi audio - right in your own living room.

EXPERIENCE THE LEGEND, ENJOY THE MUSICALITY

Yamaha boasts over 60 years of history as an audio brand. And the technology of R-N1000A comes directly from Yamaha’s legendary Hi-Fi design concept ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology), which faithfully maintains the integrity of the audio by combining a meticulously symmetrical left / right circuit layout and signal directness (straightest, shortest signal paths) with a low-vibration chassis of high rigidity, equipped with the special resin frame “Art Base” that absorbs and blocks unnecessary vibration. It maintains sonic purity and dynamism of sound.

HIGH-QUALITY PARTS FOR OUTSTANDING AUDIO PERFORMANCE

Custom-made power transformer and block capacitors, one-point grounding system, high-quality audio condensers, and other top-class parts effortlessly handle demanding audio signal conditions. Since the quality of each individual part, as well as how they work together, basically determines the sound quality of any component, Yamaha makes sure that only the most carefully selected and tested parts are used.

The Enhanced Sound

The slim, floor-standing OPTICON 6 MK2 is the entry point in the OPTICON MK2 series for the renowned DALI hybrid soft dome and ribbon tweeter. The hybrid tweeter offers a significant advance in high frequency resolution and has been improved for OPTICON MK2 by incorporating the CALLISTO derived 29mm dome alongside a 17mm x 45mm ribbon element in a re-engineered, cast aluminium faceplate. OPTICON 6 MK2 low frequencies and midrange are handled by twin 61⁄2” Wood Fibre diaphragm, SMC magnet bass/midrange drivers, the lower one of which is gradually attenuated into the midrange band. The OPTICON 6 MK2 offers optional bi-wiring to enable its bass/midrange and high frequency sections to be connected independently. Twin bass drivers, Dual Flare reflex loading, and the increased internal volume provided by its floor standing enclosure enable the OPTICON 6 MK2 to achieve significantly greater low frequency extension and bass volume level than the stand mount OPTICON MK2 systems. And it combines that bass performance with brilliant, midrange clarity and the sparkling high frequencies that are characteristic of the DALI hybrid tweeter.

Bass and Midrange Drivers

The OPTICON MK2 bass/mid driver magnet system consists of a large ferrite ring magnet surrounding a pole piece manufactured entirely of the unique DALI SMC material. The pole piece and the ferrite magnet are secured between soft iron front and back plates to create the appropriate magnetic field for the voice-coil.

Reflex Ports

The newly introduced OPTICON MK2 Dual Flare technique brings port design into the realm of aerodynamics with exit and entry flares carefully designed to minimise turbulence at the airflow rate expected from the port diameter and tuning frequency. Dual Flare enables OPTICON MK2 reflex ports to remain laminar and work effectively to reinforce low frequency performance to a significantly higher volume level than would otherwise be the case.

Manufacturing in Pairs

There’s many respects in which DALI stands out among the crowd of HiFi speaker manufacturers, but one in particular is our approach to pair matching – in terms of both acoustics and finish quality.

Examine a pair of HiFi speakers from many manufacturers and you’ll almost certainly see that they each have different serial numbers, often some numerical distance apart. This indicates that manufacturing may have taken place months apart; perhaps even on different production lines. Examine a pair of DALI speakers however and you’ll see that they carry the same serial number, with just a simple extension to denote Left or Right. It’s a simple approach that costs very little, yet it results in huge benefits for the customer.
