Yamaha CS-R3203 Natural Sound Home Theater and Music System

COMPLETE AUDIO/VIDEO ENSEMBLE
This is as good as it gets. The CS-R3203 is a complete system including a high performance home theater receiver, CD changer, dual-well auto-reverse tape deck, and a full complement of speakers. The electronic components are elegantly stacked in a handsome black cabinet. The tower speakers flanking it share the same black micro-pebble finish.

VERSATILE, POWERFUL RECEIVER
Powering this flagship system is Yamaha's R-V703 receiver providing 80 watts per channel to the front three channels and 20 watts to each of the rear speakers. It provides Dolby Surround Pro Logic, 8 Yamaha DSP and Cinema DSP modes, and a high quality AM/FM stereo tuner with 40 presets.

5-CHANNEL HOME THEATER RECEIVER WITH DOLBY PRO LOGIC AND CINEMA DSP
The R-V703 is a 5-channel receiver providing superb Pro Logic performance and processing and Yamaha's Digital Sound Field Processing, and Cinema DSP. And it has inputs that can accept the decoded output of a 5.1 channel decoder, such as Yamaha's DDP-2 or other outboard decoder, or a decoded signal from a DVD player.

DISCRETE POWER TRANSISTORS
Discrete power transistors rather than IC chips are used in the amplifier section to provide the cleanest sound possible. The amp delivers 80 watts each to the three front channels and 20 watts each to the rear surround channels.

ACCLAIMED YAMAHA IC CHIPS
Yamaha's YSS-203 chip provides Digital Dolby Pro Logic with full channel separation and no front-to-back bleedthrough as well as 35mm Cinema DSP.

8 DSP/CINEMA DSP PROGRAMS -- INCLUDING 35mm MOVIE THEATER CINEMA DSP
Yamaha's exclusive Digital Sound Field Processing for music recreates the acoustic personalities of actual concert halls and other venues, such as the Roxy Theater in Los Angeles, Village Gate in New York, Anaheim Stadium, and concert halls in Europe. 35mm Cinema DSP multiplies the effects of Dolby Pro Logic and Yamaha DSP to provide the best possible Pro Logic movie theater recreation in your home.

SUBWOOFER OUTPUT WITH LOW PASS FILTER
Allows you to add outboard amplification and direct subwoofer connection.

NEW UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL
The new universal remote control can operate all units in this system as well as other Yamaha components and has codes built-in to operate models from most other manufacturers, as well.

FOUR AUDIO AND THREE AUDIO/VIDEO INPUTS
The R-V703 is a versatile receiver incorporating three sets of audio-only inputs and three pairs of A/V inputs. All the video inputs have RCA jacks.

LOW IMPEDANCE DRIVE CAPABILITY AND IMPEDANCE SWITCHING
Yamaha's famed low impedance drive circuitry is included in this receiver so that it can handle virtually all loads and a wide variety of speakers. For further speaker matching, the receiver's back-panel switches can be set for either high or low-impedance speakers.

LINEAR DAMPING FACTOR CIRCUIT
The advantage of full range, 20 to 20,000 Hz, damping is that it improves the definition and resolution of the sound output throughout the audible frequency range.

DUAL CENTER CHANNEL OUTPUTS
You can easily add a second center channel speaker. This is especially convenient for large-room systems or for those using a big screen or projection TV.

A/B SPEAKER SELECTOR
Allows selection of either a first set of speakers or a second -- or both.

40-STATION DIRECT ACCESS PRESET TUNING
Up to 40 preset AM and FM stations can be grouped in five groups eight stations. These groupings make it easy for family members to easily access their favorite stations or to have musical genres, such as all the jazz stations, grouped together.
