Yamaha’s integrated amplifiers all have speaker A & B option which allows music sources to be played in two difference areas of the house, adding versatility to these accomplished amplifiers. Each Amplifier is also equipped with High Grade Speaker Terminals to help ensure the audio signal is transferred to the speaker without interference.
