　　THX® Ultra2 Plus certification

　　new THX listening modes for optimized surround sound at any listening level.

　　Yamaha's flagship RX-Z11 receiver sets a new benchmark for surround sound receiver performance. It boasts an astonishing 11 channels of amplification, exclusive THX surround modes, and Yamaha's latest digital sound field processing for spectacular surround sound. Plus you get a wide array of entertainment options, including PC networking, HD Radio™ reception, and extensive multi-room audio/video options.

　　Unprecedented 11.2-channel flexibility

　　The 'Z11 delivers 140 watts x seven channels of high-current amplification for your main home theater speakers. Plus, you get four additional channels of 50 watts each to power optional front and rear "presence" speakers — you can place these above and behind your main front and rear speakers for a larger soundstage with expanded vertical dimension. All that power teamed with Yamaha's most advanced Cinema DSP ever adds up to intense, surround sound realism. Connect one powered subwoofer, or two configured as a front/rear or left/right stereo pair.

　　Enjoy music and video throughout your home

　　All those channels also open up flexible multi-source, multi-room entertainment possibilities. You can enjoy a surround sound movie in your main room while family members watch a second video source or listen to stereo music in up to three other areas of your home at the same time, without the need for any additional amplifiers. You can even route digital audio signals (including Dolby® Digital or DTS® surround sound) to a second home theater receiver or powered speaker system like Yamaha's Digital Sound Projectors.

　　HDMI switching for superior picture quality from every video source

　　The 'Z11's 1080p HDMI connections let you switch easily among five digital video sources, like a high-definition satellite receiver, high-def game consoles, and HD DVD or Blu-ray disc players, while maintaining pristine digital picture and sound quality. Two HDMI outputs add to the convenience for systems that feature more than one HDTV or projector. There's even a handy front-panel HDMI input that makes it a snap to plug in your high-def camcorder or compatible digital camera to view home movies and photos.

　　Analog-to-HDMI conversion lets you send all your non-digital video sources to a compatible television via a single HDMI cable. This receiver can also upgrade any non-HD video source to an HDMI digital signal with up to 1080p resolution, to more closely match the capabilities of your HDTV. A top-notch Anchor Bay ABT1018 video processor with a proprietary 10-bit Precision Video Scaling Engine™ provides exceptional detail and smoother playback.

　　Network connectivity and HD Radio

　　You get plenty of digital music options, too. Connect the RX-Z11 to a PC network and access music files stored on your computers. View track titles on your TV and select the tunes you want to hear using the receiver's remote. You can also listen to Internet Radio stations via your broadband connection. The built-in HD Radio tuner lets you listen to the free, over-the-air digital programming that many AM and FM stations now broadcast. Plus, you get front- and rear-panel USB ports to plug in a compatible MP3 player, hard disk drive, or USB flash drive loaded with your favorite tunes.

　　High-end audio quality

　　This beefy receiver uses only the finest audiophile-grade parts, including custom-made capacitors and a massive power transformer weighing in at over 22 pounds. It also utilizes an interior layout that thoroughly isolates the digital, analog, and video circuitry while providing the shortest signal paths possible to minimize interference that could adversely affect picture and sound quality.
