Designed for enhanced audio quality, the Yamaha Aventage RXA680 sounds supreme.

Aventage puts sound first
Yamaha’s Aventage range takes Yamaha’s considerable knowhow to the next level. Anti-Resonance Technology (ART) makes this AVR exceptionally resistant to mechanical and electrical interference. ART encompasses a range of measures including full metal casing with aluminium front panel and even a fifth damping foot, helping give the RX-A680 its superb detail and resolution. With a solid 80 watts (at 6 ohms) of power, the RXA680 delivers room-filling sound.

Optional wireless rear speakers
New to this year’s Aventage range is the option to add wireless rear speakers. Combine this receiver with the Yamaha MusicCast 20 or MusicCast 50 speakers and you can leave aside speaker cable connections. Perfect if you have a solid floor and struggle to hide speaker cable or if you simply want a cleaner style, wireless surround speakers cut down on the clutter.

Recreate the sound from the best cinemas, with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X
Dolby Atmos uses ceiling or upwards firing speakers to produce a multi-dimensional, immersive sound that's a match for the finest cinemas. DTS:X literally pushes the boundaries of what you can expect from home cinema. It renders images in three dimensions that conventional processing can't match. It also easily adapts with your existing speaker configuration.

Now with Alexa voice control
With Alexa voice control integration, if you want something, all you have to do is ask. Working in conjunction with Yamaha’s MusicCast system, the RX-A680 effortlessly plays your music requests. Compatible with Amazon’s range of voice control devices, the RX-A680 blends seamlessly with your smart home system.

See your video at its best – Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG compatible HDMI interface
Making sure you get the best from 4K streaming, UHD Blu-ray and 4K broadcasts, the RX-A680 is compatible with Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma). All four inputs are compatible, giving you all the input flexibility you could ask for. With 4K UHD upscaling on board, you get the best image quality possible, with all your video sources.

Delivers with your Hi-Res music files
Quad Burr Brown 384kHz/32-bit DACs (Digital to Analogue Convertors) are at the heart of this impressive Yamaha AVR to give it immense digital processing power. The DACs not only provide punchy and lifelike sound but also facilitate the playback of many High Resolution audio formats. The RX-A680 is compatible with a wide range of HD audio formats, including DSD up to 11.2 MHz and WAV/AIFF up to 192kHz-32-bit for exceptional sound quality.

Delivers with your vinyl, too
Audio inputs include an MM phono connection for your turntable as well as three RCA phono inputs at the back for a CD player, streamer and other music source. At the front, there’s a 3.5mm input that’s ideal for an MP3 player. A USB socket is also at hand for connecting your USB media stick and playing back digital music files.

Part of the multi-room MusicCast system
The Yamaha RX-A680 is part of Yamaha's hugely impressive network audio system, MusicCast. With MusicCast you can control all your compatible Yamaha MusicCast products via your smartphone or even Amazon Alexa by voice. Play the same music on all the components or split the sound into different zones for different moods in each room; the choice is yours. The MusicCast CONTROLLER app lets you operate the system around your home and change settings quickly and easily.

Stream your favourite music services
Compatible with Spotify, Pandora, Napster, Tidal, Deezer and Qobuz, the RXA680 is fully equipped for your favourite music streaming service. With Tidal and Qobuz already offering higher resolution playback, it’s now possible to find a streaming service that at least matches the quality of CD and, in some cases, even improves upon it.

Apple AirPlay and Bluetooth also included
As well as MusicCast, the RXA680 also has built-in Apple AirPlay, letting you stream music from your Apple iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad or other compatible Apple device, wirelessly. You can also view data such as song title, artist name as well as album art* via the AV receiver's on-screen display. *Some models don't support album art display. If you use another brand of smartphone or tablet then you also have Bluetooth, for easy music streaming from your portable device.

Digital radio standard
With both DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) and FM tuners built-in, this Yamaha is ideally equipped for listening to a wide range of stations. Select DAB for a vast range of digital radio stations, including the popular BBC 6 Music, 4 Extra and 5 live. DAB also lets you hear crisp, digital clarity of sound, free from interference. For local stations or a more expansive sound with national stations (roof mounted aerial recommended) FM is also on hand.
