Authentic Hi-Fi sound, beautifully compact
The WXA-70A is built on decades of Yamaha Hi-Fi engineering and packs it into a component just 220 mm wide. A rigid aluminium enclosure and vibration-resistant construction keep the sound clean, while an audiophile-grade ESS SABRE ES9039Q2M DAC in Yamaha's proprietary DAC on Pure Ground configuration gives the delicate analogue stages an exceptionally quiet environment to work in.
It is equally at home as a compact stereo system or as the heart of a living-room setup — HDMI eARC brings TV sound in over a single cable, with power and volume following your TV remote.
