As part of Yamaha's no-compromise design policy, Yamaha created the AVENTAGE MX-A500 11-Channel Amplifier. This machine features an advanced chassis with strong rigidity. Chassis stiffness is enhanced by an H-shaped cross frame that boosts mechanical strength, by adopting aluminum side panels that increase the stiffness of the housing and by a three-ply structure with independent top cover and side panels. The interior of the unit has been precisely planned, circuit-routed and built so that the left and right channels are physically and electrically isolated. The MX-A5000 uses a current feedback power amp with a three stage Darlington circuit that has superior phase properties and is resistant to speaker impedance fluctuation.
The MX-A5000 was designed to allow flexible system building when matched with the CX-A500 Preamplifier. They both complement each and take advantage of their 11-channel output maximizing the Cinema DSP HD3 performance and make the most of the capabilities of the speakers, they also support bi-amping for driving tweeter and woofer with separate amps. So, if you are looking for one of the best amps from Yamaha, this is it!
