Amazon.com Product Description

Enjoy high-quality video and multichannel surround audio with Yamaha's stylish silver YHT-550 all-in-one home theater. The system consists of Yamaha's DVS-5650 progressive-scan DVD player, the 5-piece NS-AP2500 speaker ensemble, the YST-SW010 subwoofer, plus Yamaha's HTR-5730 home theater receiver, which pumps 100 watts per channel x 6 discrete channels and offers a host of options for rendering the type of surround sound best suited to your taste or programming.

The powerful HTR-5730 receiver accepts the DVD player's Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS 5.1-channel surround signals and routes each channel to its designated speaker. Additionally, the receiver's Silent Cinema and Night Listening modes enhance headphone and low-level listening, respectively, while Yamaha's 32-bit Cinema-DSP processing gives you an additional 24 surround effects to enhance your movies and music. The receiver offers a total of 4 A/V inputs. The tuner section offers 40-station AM/FM preset tuning.

Yamaha's single-disc DVS-5650 spins DVD-Video, VCD, SVCD, CD-R/CD-RW, DVD+R/+RW, DVD-R/-RW, MP3 CD, and JPEG image CDs (including mixed-mode MP3/JPEG CDs), putting a range of audio and video media at your disposal. The player features both interlaced (for standard TVs) and progressive-scan component-video outputs (for use with compatible HD or HD-ready TVs). Other features include picture zoom, shuffle play, repeat play, and parental controls (disc lock and password protection).

The 6-speaker complement includes the 5-speaker NS-AP2500 for the front, center, and surround speakers and Yamaha's YST-SW010 subwoofer for deep bass, which is important for effective home theater sound. Each speaker in the NS-AP2500 ensemble uses a sealed, acoustic-suspension design with a 3-inch woofer and a .5-inch soft-dome tweeter. The center speaker houses dual 2.5-inch drivers for broader dispersion of midrange frequencies--critical for clarity of dialogue and other center-channel information.

The 100-watt, 6.5-inch subwoofer uses Yamaha's patented Advanced Active Servo Technology (Advanced YST), which generates incredible bass from its small enclosure. Advanced YST uses negative-impedance feedback in the amp and a Helmholtz resonator in the speaker to provide strong and accurate bass.

QD-Bass (Quatre Dispersion Bass) technology uses a down-firing driver with square, pyramid-shaped reflective plates to radiate sound with equal effectiveness in all directions. The sub's individual volume control permits the perfect matching of the sub's output to the overall volume of the system. The sub has a signal-sensing circuit, too. When it detects an audio signal, it powers right up. When it senses no signal for several minutes, it shuts itself off.

All speakers included with the YHT-550 feature magnetic shielding, so they can be placed near a TV or monitor and cause no picture degradation.

What's in the Box
DVD player, surround amplifier, five speakers, a powered subwoofer, two remote controls, remote batteries, a user's manual, and all requisite cabling.
