Yamaha RX-V565

The Yamaha RX-V565 (also called the Yamaha HTR-6250) is a 7.1 channel home theater receiver offered by Yamaha. It features HD audio encoding and 1080p HDMI, with four inputs and one output with video upscaling, YPAO and new SCENE functionality. The YPAO automatic system calibration uses a small microphone and sophisticated equalization to automatically set the best sound for any room, no matter where the speakers are. The four SCENE buttons can be programmed to easily switch between the most common viewing/listening modes such as DVD Viewing, Disk Listening, TV Viewing and Radio Listening, with many others to choose from. It is equipped to use the optional YBA-10 Bluetooth Wireless Audio Receiver for audio streaming from devices such as cell phones, portable computers and other portable devices.  It is also equipped to use the optional Yamaha Universal iPod Dock that allows iPod control from the receivers remote control, while charging the iPod's battery.
