Yamahas RX-V2092 is representative of the upper reaches of second-generation Dolby Digital receivers. The big Yamaha has all the requisite top-of-the-line attributes, beginning with serious power: 100 watts each to the five main Dolby Digital channels. It also has two additional speaker outputs for Yamahas unique front-effects channels, used in the RX-V2092s proprietary Cinema-DSP-7Ch surround modes. Rated at 25 watts each, these drive a pair of small speakers positioned slightly behind and outside the front left/right pair.
The RX-V2092 is not as weighted by extras as some top-of-the-line A/V receivers, but then again, its price tag is considerably lower than some others. The receiver does, however, incorporate a few notable features. High on the list is dual-source, multiroom capability, which extends to audio and video sources; it even comes with a simplified, second remote for Zone-2 control. The main handset is rather futuristic, with an impressive array of controls behind a flip-up door for multicomponent, full-system command, but it still offers relatively simple, basic functionality with the door closed
