Set-up and installation
Contents
The Yamaha R-N1000A’s user manual consists of a whopping 157 pages! Fortunately, there is a Quick Guide in the box that gets you started immediately. Most of it is self-explanatory, of course. Attach network cable, download app, update firmware and we’re off. The Yamaha R-N1000A replaces our full system. So just connect it to some speakers and you’re done. During the entire test period, the Pure Direct feature was enabled.
