Yamaha R-N800A Network Receiver Amplifier + Focal Aria Evo X N1 Bookshelf Loudspeakers

SOUND IMAGE

The position of the artist and the instrument, and even the delicate nuances and very atmosphere of the performance space are stunningly reproduced just as they are. The resulting soundstage is so incredibly realistic, you’ll feel as if you were watching the performance unfold right in front of you.

EXPERIENCE THE LEGEND, ENJOY THE MUSICALITY

Yamaha boasts over 60 years of history as an audio brand. And the technology of R-N800A 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.

DAB / DAB+ TUNER

DAB and DAB+ are Digital Audio Broadcasting formats that offer a large selection of radio stations with high sound quality. Other benefits include automatic tuning to available stations with a list to choose from, and display of information such as station name. You can preset 40 DAB / DAB+ stations.

*Availability of DAB / DAB+ tuner varies by region

MAXIMUM SOUND PURITY

Pure Direct mode enables the music signals to travel the shortest possible circuit route, bypassing the buffer amp and the tone, loudness and balance controls to virtually eliminate any signal degradation, for the purest sound quality.

MULTI-ROOM AUDIO - MusicCast

Entertainment content from your records, TV, CDs, and other sources connected to the R-N800A can be sent to other MusicCast devices and enjoyed throughout your home. Moreover, all MusicCast products have been designed first and foremost for superior sound quality. High-res audio formats including Apple Lossless (ALAC) up to 96 kHz, WAV, and FLAC or AIFF up to 384 kHz are supported.

"If you value standmounters with scale, power, and refinement, you won't find better for the money.

RICH, NATURAL SOUND

The midrange/bass driver lets you appreciate all the qualities of the Flax membrane, an exclusive Focal technology made from French linen and the source of a natural, uncolored sound. Thanks to the TAM tweeter, another innovation, the treble is precise and smooth.

FOCAL KNOW-HOW

From the manufacture of the loudspeakers to the design of the cabinet, Focal know-how is at work: TMD surround to stabilize the moving diaphragm, a special plate around the tweeter for a better sound image, and non-parallel cabinet walls to eliminate vibrations.

DESIGN

The loudspeaker can be placed directly where you want it, or on a dedicated stand (optional). Its elegant finishes (Black High, Prime Walnut and Moss Green High Gloss) combine with a leather-effect front panel for a refined aesthetic signature.

TMD SUSPENSION

Stabilized surround, eliminates vibrations

While our engineers are experts in the development of exclusive diaphragms, they also innovate in all the components that make up the loudspeakers, such as the surround that connects the diaphragm to the frame, the performance of which must be mastered. Introduced in 2015, Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) technology with harmonic damping consists of the addition of finely positioned toroidal weights to stabilize the surround for even greater sonic neutrality. This technology enhances the midrange and the erratic behavior of the surround between 1 kHz and 2 kHz.

TAM TWEETER

Wide diffusion angle

Membrane shape and materials are essential for high-fidelity reproduction. Focal engineers have designed the TAM tweeter. Manufactured in our workshops in France, it boasts a number of advantages, particularly in terms of wide-angle diffusion. Comprising an aluminum/magnesium inverted dome cone with an "M" profile for even greater rigidity, it delivers flawless harmonic balance and detailed treble. The presence of a decompression chamber limits disturbances caused by rear waves, for even greater sonic clarity.

FLAX MEMBRANE

Purity and precision of sound

As the key component of a loudspeaker, the membrane is at the heart of our acoustic engineers' research. After more than five years of research and development, in 2013 Focal unveiled an exclusive membrane made from flax. Patented, this Flax cone is a sandwich made of very high quality French flax fibre placed between two thin sheets of glass fibre. It satisfies all the criteria of a high-fidelity membrane: lightness to offer good dynamics, rigidity to hold the bass and damping to deliver a neutral, natural, uncolored sound. It is an emblematic Focal innovation in many hi-fi products.
