Amazon.com Product Description
Take the next step in home theater performance with the Yamaha HTR-5940 digital surround receiver, which boasts 6.1 channels (105 watts x 6) of amplification and a ton of high-end features. The receiver is built around Yamaha's digital ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology) design concept, which maximizes digital signal quality and minimizes analog circuitry to ensure the best possible sound. ToP-ART receivers include such defining attributes as ultra-high-current amplification, high-performance 192 kHz/24-bit digital-to-analog converters, and an impressively wide frequency range of 10 Hz to 100 kHz that helps digital audio sources like DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD reach their full potential.
Movie buffs will dig the HTR-5940's Quad-Field Cinema Digital Sound Processing (DSP), Yamaha's means of simulating the acoustics of a movie theater, stadium, concert hall, or intimate club in the comfort of your own home. The Quad-Field function projects four sound fields into the home theater--a "presence" field in the front and three "surround" fields in the left rear, right rear, and center rear surround speakers, resulting in a powerfully realistic 3-D soundscape. Quad-Field DSP is particularly ideal for newer 6.1-channel formats.
The Cinema DSP's 14 surround programs include multichannel video modes such as Spectacle, Sci-Fi, Adventure, and General, each of which creates an optimum sound field for a specific movie genre; standard and enhanced modes for Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, DTS, DTS 96/24, DTS Neo: 6, DTS-ES Matrix 6.1, DTS Discrete 6.1, Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Pro Logic II, and Dolby Pro Logic IIx decoders; and a host of other options for movies, music, and video games. Also featured is Silent Cinema, Yamaha's exclusive technology that lets you enjoy multichannel music or movie sound through ordinary headphones, and a Neural Surround decoder that separates and localizes all 6.1 channels with greater clarity than ever before to create an astoundingly detailed soundstage.

What really makes the HTR-5940 unique, however, are the extras, such as a compressed music enhancer that improves the sound quality of MP3s and other compressed formats and a mini input jack on the front panel for connecting MP3 players, iPods, and other portable media devices. Plus, the HTR-5940 not only comes with a standard AM/FM tuner, but is also XM satellite radio ready. All you need is a separately sold XM antenna and a subscription to XM satellite radio and you're set. And audiophiles can be assured of the best possible sound when listening to XM radio thanks to its utilization of the Neural Surround mode.
Additional features include an audio delay that adjusts to poorly synched dialogue, A/B or A+B speaker selection, a selectable nine-band subwoofer crossover, a sleep timer, a night listening mode that lowers the volume during loud passages, and a sleek silver housing.
With a bevy of digital and analog inputs, the HTR-5940 can accommodate a host of digital sources such as DVD players, CD players, video game consoles, digital satellite systems, and much more. The rear panel options include two optical digital inputs and one coaxial digital input; three component video inputs and one output; three S-video inputs and two outputs (one assignable); three composite video inputs and two outputs (one assignable); and two analog audio inputs and one output. Also present are a 5.1 multichannel input and a set of front-panel composite A/V inputs for quick connections.
The HTR-5940 measures 17.1 by 6.3 by 15.4 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a two-year warranty.

Digital delay in a solid receiver.......2007-02-18
The one primary feature I chose this unit over others was the digital delay. HDTV takes a lot of time doing video processing and the result is that audio and video can be disturbingly out of sync when playing DVD's. Setting the 5940's delay to something like 130ms brings the audio and video in sync for me with my Sony SXRD TV and Sony DVD player. Unfortunately, the delay is buried several menu options down and doesn't have an on/off function, only a time setting. So it cannot be switched off for TV and on for DVD by my integrated remote control.
Other than that annoyance, it is a well functioning system with a great variety of setup adjustments to tailor its performance in a home theater system. There are a lot of preset sound processing settings to pick from with remote control buttons.
All in all, the unit works great for me and the price was excellent for the features. I waited many months for the silver unit to match the rest of my equipment.

A docking station for your iPod that connects to select models of Yamaha home theater receivers / for 4G & 5G iPods
Amazon.com Product Description
There are several iPod docking stations on the market, but few are as convenient as the YDS-10, which is custom designed to work with Yamaha's HTR-5960, HTR-5950, RX-V659, and RX-V559 home theater receivers. Connection is easy--simply plug the dock into the Yamaha receiver's rear-panel port. Once connected, the dock not only charges your iPod and plays your favorite playlists through the receiver's stereo or surround speakers, but it also shows iPod images and movies through an attached monitor. It's the perfect setup for people who regularly download TV shows from iTunes but want to watch them on a big TV. The rest of the time, you can rock out to all your favorite songs with style.
Just as impressively, the YDS-10 lets you operate your iPod from across the room using the receiver's remote control and onscreen display, so you don't need to rise off the sofa each time you want to change selections. Connecting your iPod to a home theater system has never been easier or sounded so good. The YDS-10 is compatible with 4th and 5th generation iPods (with click wheels), the iPod mini, and the iPod nano.

Customer Reviews:
Don't know if it's any good, because Amazon shipped it via ParcelPool, which takes 3 weeks!!!!!.......2007-09-21
Boooo Amazon! I spend $499 on the stereo, $50 on the ipod dock. You 2 -day air the stereo, and then ship the dock ordered at the same time via ParcelPool, which says it should be here in 2-3 weeks. Nice! Good planning!
Yamaha ipod docking station delivers.......2007-09-06
I have been pleased with my Yahama ipod dock. I downloaded all our CDs onto our ipod and now play them on our stereo system by using the dock. It's really nice to not have all those CDs taking up storage space. However, I think all ipod docking stations are a bit over priced.
Ipod Docking Station.......2007-09-03
It a plug and play item no problem. I would add that I would have like to have seen the docking station come in black.
Response from Yamaha on how to get the video function to work.......2007-08-29
I recently purchased this & couldn't get the video to work on my television...I'm including an emailed response that I received from Yamaha...it works great, but you need to set the Video Setting on your IPOD to ASK.
Note from Yamaha...
Please make sure you set up your remote to control the Ipod. Please see
your receiver's owners manual for the instructions. (Using the Ipod.) Insert the Ipod into the dock and turn it on so you can see the menu in the Ipod's screen. (The remote should control the Ipod at this point.)
****Under the video settings on your Ipod you will need to set the TV out to on or ask. (If plan to view videos on the Ipod and via the receiver we recommend you set it to ask.) Navigate to the desired video
clip and play it. It should now display the video on your TV.***
When you are done watching videos and want to listen to music just press the display button on the Yamaha remote control and it will load the menu onto your TV
If you have any more questions please contact are toll free customer service line for assistance. 1(800)292-2982 Hours: Monday Thru Friday 8 AM to 4 PM pacific time.
Guys Help!.......2007-08-25
I'll write my review later, but right now I have a question for those who got this to work. First of all, I got the audio working just fine, sounds great coming through my speakers. However, how do you guys get the song/menu to display on your tv? I've been screwing around for a half hour w/o success. How does the receiver take the ipod data and send it to your tv? I just don't get it. What's happening now is my tv is on but there is no picture, or, if I have my PS3 on, the PS3 menus are up. How do I see the Ipod stuff ?
Here's my setup:
Yamaha V661 receiver
Sony PS3
Ipod Video (30 gig)
Sony SXRD Projection TV

Amazon.com Product Description
HP makes multimedia easy for the whole family with the a462x desktop PC, featuring a wide range of connectivity options for all your peripherals and preloaded HP Image Zone photo editing and management software. The hyper-threaded 3.0 GHz Pentium 4 processor will help you smoothly edit video and enjoy your favorite video games. It comes loaded with 512 MB of RAM, which can be bumped up to 2 GB, and also features an large 120 GB hard drive, a DVD+RW drive for burning your home movies and favorite music mixes to disc, a DVD drive for watching movies, and a multiformat memory card reader that's compatible with today's most popular digital camera formats.
The Basics
- Hard Drive: The large 120 GB Ultra DMA hard drive (7200 RPM) offers a wealth of storage space, perfect for storing a vast multimedia collection or for editing digital video.
- Processor: The hyper-threaded 3.0 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor is at the low end of the spectrum for this processor (as of June 2005). Its hyper-threading feature allows this single CPU system to behave in some aspects like a dual-CPU system, helping to deliver faster transistors and increased performance. It also features a fast 800 MHz front-side bus speed, which measures how fast a processor and the main memory communicate, and a 1 MB L2 cache. (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance.)
A Hyper-Threading processor helps a PC to run multiple demanding applications at the same time. This technology enables the processor to execute two threads (a part of a program) in parallel, boosting performance during key high-drain procedures. This results in more efficient software performance (such as faster reaction times in gaming applications) and enhanced multitasking.
- Memory: The 512 MB of installed RAM (PC2700, 333 MHz) is a good start, but you'll want to take advantage of the roomy 2 GB of total RAM capacity (2 x 1 GB) for such multimedia needs as video editing and immersive 3D gaming.
- CD/DVD Drive: The combo DVD+RW and CD-RW drive is compatible with a wide variety disc formats, including DVD+, DVD-, VCD, and SVCD discs. It features 4x DVD+R, 2.4x DVD+RW, 8x DVD-ROM, 16x CDR, 10x CD-RW, and 32x CD-ROM ROM speeds, and it has a 2 MB buffer.
- Keyboard & Mouse: This desktop comes with an HP multimedia keyboard and scroller mouse (both with PS/2 connections).
Screen, Graphics and Sound
The nVidia GeForce4 MX440 graphics/video card has 64 MB of shared DDR video RAM and will be fine for business productivity software suites, Web browsing, and general purpose computing.

- 6 USB 2.0 ports (4 in rear, 2 in front) for connecting a wide range of peripherals--from digital cameras to MP3 players
- 2 FireWire (also known as IEEE 1394 or i.Link; 1 front and 1 back) ports for connecting digital video camcorders and other peripherals
- 2 PS/2 ports for connecting keyboards and mice
- 1 parallel port
- 1 serial port
- Line-in, line-out, headphone, and microphone connections
- 1 VGA monitor port

Organize and find your photos easily by timeline, keywords, and/or location using the unique photo-globe mapping tool. Remove red eye and fix other common problems.
