YAMAHA AVENTAGE RX-A3040 ATMOS WIFI Network Audio/Video Receiver Bluetooth.
High-res audio
A serious home theater workhorse
We have some customers who are simply looking for one thing: the best. They want the latest and the greatest of everything. If such a customer were in the market for a new home theater receiver, we'd want to show them the Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A3040. Yamaha's flagship receiver offers everything a serious home theater enthusiast wants, including new Dolby Atmos® processing (requires upcoming firmware update). This breakthrough technology utilizes this receiver's nine-channel amp to add speakers that project sound from above your listening area. Sound cool? Just wait ‘til you hear it. With this receiver's beefy amplification and outstanding sound quality, we're confident the ‘A3040 could please just about anyone with two ears and a love of movies and music.
Dolby Atmos adds a new dimension to sound
Dolby's latest surround sound technology was designed to bring a new level of immersion to your home theater. By employing in-ceiling speakers or special Atmos enabled upward-firing speakers that reflect sound off your ceiling, Dolby Atmos offers a greater sense of space for sound that's more three-dimensional. Already at work in film production studios and many movie theaters, Dolby Atmos represents a huge step in putting more "theater" into your home theater. (Firmware update required.)
The RX-A3040 lets you add two overhead or up-firing speakers (sometimes called "height" or "top" speakers) to a conventional seven-channel system — this is referred to as a 7.1.2 Dolby Atmos setup. Here's a breakdown of all the Dolby Atmos speaker configurations this receiver supports:
7.1.2 - seven conventional surround speakers, one powered subwoofer, and two overhead or height speakers
5.1.4 - five conventional surround speakers, one powered subwoofer, and four overhead or height speakers
5.1.2 - five conventional surround speakers, one powered subwoofer, and two overhead or height speakers
7.1.4 - seven conventional surround speakers, one powered subwoofer, and four overhead or height speakers (requires an external stereo power amp)
You can use one or two subwoofers with any of these configurations.
Wi-Fi offers a wide range of wireless music options
If you've never connected a receiver to your wireless home network, you may not realize how much music you're missing out on. Built-in Wi-Fi makes the RX-A3040 a snap to integrate with your network. Once you're connected, you can listen to free Pandora® Internet radio as well as free radio streams from hundreds of stations around the world. If you're a subscriber to Spotify®, SiriusXM, or Rhapsody, you can enjoy their seemingly endless music choices. Got a computer or networked hard drive loaded with music? DLNA compatibility allows this receiver to tap into your collection wirelessly, so you never have to touch another CD again. Finally, if you're an Apple® user, AirPlay lets you listen wirelessly from your iPhone®, iPad®, iPod touch®, or a computer running iTunes®.
Extend your system's reach into four rooms
This receiver's nine-channel amp offers lots of connections to give you incredible multi-room flexibility. There are powered outputs for up to 11 speakers, so you can connect speakers in a second and third room. The 'A3040 can automatically send audio signals through the extra stereo outputs when the appropriate zone is powered on. The Zone 2 HDMI output lets you watch separate video content simultaneously on two different TVs. You can also use this feature to send video to a TV in a fourth room. Add another HDMI-capable receiver in that room, and you can connect speakers and a TV for a nice 2-channel audio/video setup — very impresive for a fourth zone.
Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A3040
The RX-A3040 can output any digital or analog audio/video source to a second zone via HDMI.
Built on sound principles
Excellent sound quality is the guiding principle behind Yamaha's AVENTAGE receivers. Professional-quality ESS Sabre digital-to-analog converters are employed for the seven primary output channels, decoding the latest audio formats while offering refreshing levels of detail in music and movies. Low-jitter PLL circuitry reduces timing jitter from digital sources, for accurate playback and precise stereo imaging. The symmetrical power amp layout isolates the circuitry for the left and right channels, for a high signal-to-noise ratio and a wide soundstage for stereo music listening. The aluminum front panel, rigid chassis, extra center foot, and internal cross-beam support help to further eliminate unwanted resonance and distortion.

Control your music and settings via Wi-Fi with Yamaha's free AV Controller app on your tablet or smartphone.
Advanced video processing
Great sound is only part of the AVENTAGE RX-A3040's story. Video upconversion can take analog or HDMI-connected sources as high as 4K for display on Ultra HD TVs. If you haven't yet taken the 4K plunge, you can also choose upscaling to 1080p HD to make old DVDs glisten with new life on your TV. Yamaha's advanced video processing can improve movies and TV shows by using edge and motion deinterlacing to create smooth motion and sharp images. Want to see how good photos and video from a smartphone or camera can look on your TV? Connect it to the front panel HDMI input with with Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) compatibility and share videos and photos on the big screen instead of your phone's tiny one.
Easy control with your smartphone or tablet
What's the best way to control this receiver's many features? Download the free Yamaha AV Controller app to your smartphone or tablet. Available for Apple or Android™, the app offers easy touchscreen control of the receiver's most critical functions — from switching sources and controlling the volume, to multi-zone playback control and selecting an Internet radio station. You can also use your tablet or PC's web browser to control the player and change settings.
