Key Specs
Continuous Watts x Channel @ Ohms: N/A
Number of Channels: 2 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
Number of Audio Zones: 0 (Audio zones, typically designated by rooms in a home, are areas in which all speakers are dependent on the same sound source. Whether a zone encompasses one or multiple rooms, the receiver or preamp/processor is used to control all aspects of its audio and is able to select which zones receive sound.)
Maximum Watts x Channel @ Ohms: N/A (This is the maximum load the speaker, subwoofer or amp can drive.)
Total Power Handling: 320 watts (How much amplifier (amplified) power (wattage) that can be handled before damaging the product.)
Number of Channels: 2 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
Number of Audio Zones: 0 (Audio zones, typically designated by rooms in a home, are areas in which all speakers are dependent on the same sound source. Whether a zone encompasses one or multiple rooms, the receiver or preamp/processor is used to control all aspects of its audio and is able to select which zones receive sound.)
Minimum Frequency Response: 20 hertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The minimum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
Total Harmonic Distortion: 0.7 percent (Measurement of the harmonic sound distortion. The lower the percentage, the cleaner the sound.)
Maximum Frequency Response: 20 kilohertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The maximum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
Amplifier Type: Integrated amplifiers
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR): 99 decibels (The ratio of the desired signal's strength to the level of background noise. A ratio higher than 1:1, which equates to greater than 0 decibels, indicates more signal than noise.)
Bass Boost: None (Circuitry that boosts the bass response of the amplifier, improving audio reproduction enhancing the sound of low frequencies. Fixed boost means the level of bass response is preset, whereas variable boost allows the user to make adjustments.)
Inputs
Audio Only Inputs: Unbalanced RCA
Video Only Inputs: No video only inputs (The number and type of video signal only inputs the product has.)
Network Connector(s): No network connectors
Line-Level Inputs: true (Also referred to as low-level inputs. Enables the amplifier to receive a sound signal from another device via RCA cables.)
Video Only Outputs: No video only outputs (The number and type of video signal only outputs the product has.)
Features
Bridgeable: false (Bridging an amplifier increases the power it supplies to the speaker(s).)
Dimensions
Product Height: 6 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
Product Width: 17.1 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
Product Depth: 15.25 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)
Product Weight: 24.7 pounds (The out of box weight of the item.)

This Yamaha A-S701 A-S701SL 2-channel integrated amplifier features CD direct amplification with Pure Direct mode for detailed hi-fi sound. ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology) provides a direct signal path for quality audio.
320W maximum power: 160W x 2 @ 4 ohms, 1KHz, 0.7% THD for powerful sound. Also supports 200W RMS power (100W x 2 @ 8 ohms, 20Hz - 20kHz, 0.019% THD).
Speaker A, B or A+B selection: Plus speaker terminals for up to 2 systems allows you to connect to speaker systems in different rooms and easily switch between them or play the same audio in multiple areas simultaneously.
ToP-ART (Total Purity Audio Reproduction Technology): Utilizes a direct signal path, ART (Anti-Resonance and Tough) Base, solid center bar and custom-made power transformer to offer rich, high-quality sound.
CD direct amplification: Enables a direct connection to your CD player (not included) for an optimal signal-to-noise ratio. Pure Direct mode bypasses the buffer amp and tone, loudness and balance controls for pure sound.
Plug-and-play setup: Simplifies installation.
Continuously variable loudness control: Allows you to select a desired volume level, provides optimal tonal balance at most listening levels and compensates for natural loss at high and low frequencies when playing music at low levels.
Compatible with YBA-11 Bluetooth wireless adapter (not included): So you can wirelessly stream music with crystal clarity from compatible audio sources.

Nice Amp
Yamaha has really done a nice job with this amp. I'm using it to power a very large pair of speakers that I built. I bought the Marantz first but had to return it because it couldn't get these speakers moving and it cost about 400 more than the Yamaha. I never have it up more than half way and I've already had the cops called on me twice and I live in a house on a corner lot. My neighbor says she can feel the bass in her house. Good clean sound.
Beautiful sounding amp paired with Klipsch sub and Klipsch bookshelf speakers. More power than I needed but I may eventually go up to the Klipsch floor standing speakers with the bigger woofers. Good value, good sound, and plenty of options for inputs and tone controls.
I had to special order this amp. I first went to the Magnolia Audio part of Best Buy and they try to sell me a 7.2 amp with all the features you could think of. I wanted an old school two channel amp and they were not interested in ordering one for me. I had to order thought the regular Best Buy part of the store. I am very happy with this amp. Does not have many features which I like. The best part is that you can add a subwoofer. When I hooked up my subwoofer it sounded amazing. I have had it for a few months now with no problems. Just easy and simple to operate and hook up and made very solid like the amps of the old days. Will probably last forever!
