A PLEASURE TO CONTROL Developed through extensive prototyping and refinement, every knob and switch is designed to deliver a smooth, tactile feel that makes every interaction more satisfying. SONIC PRECISION STARTS WITHIN At the heart of the WXA-70A, an audiophile grade ESS SABRE ES9039Q2M DAC works in harmony with Yamaha’s advanced digital audio technologies to preserve the integrity of every recording. The result is remarkably clear, focused and natural sound revealing more of the emotion in every performance. EVERY DETAIL MATTERS Every design detail serves a purpose in the pursuit of better sound.
