CXA-5000 AVENTAGE Yamaha 11.2 Channel Pre-amplifier

The Yamaha CXA-5000 11.2 Channel Pre-amplifier is a key component in many Pure Image home audio installations. This pre-amp pairs well with the Yamaha MXA-5000 power amplifier to create a modular system giving you the power, control, and upgradability that your system needs.

Key features include balanced XLR connections, HDMI 2.0 compliance, and 4k HD pass-through. It’s packed with connections, making it the ideal hub for the sources that make up your entertainment system.

The CXA-5000 supports up to four zones for complete control of where and what you want to listen to. It’s Apple Airplay-ready, can play high resolution FLAC audio files, and sports a high-quality, rigid classic that looks as good in a rack as it sounds when it’s out of sight.

We’ve been integrating the CXA-5000 since its launch and we can say, honestly, that we have not had a single complaint. It’s a pre-amp that impresses us daily.
