Yamaha MCR-232BL Micro Component System

The MCR-232 an executive style mini-system featuring iPhone, iPod and iPad compatibility among other advanced features with an elegant black finish speakers.

Yamaha took care to design the receiver and speakers to perfectly complement each other. The receiver uses a high efficiency Yamaha digital amp that ensures accurate, low distortion sound, which is delivered by new-design speakers.

A USB terminal on the top of the unit makes it quick and easy to plug in an iPad or other USB device. The digital connection permits fast, lossfree signal transmission.

The iPhone/iPod dedicated dock provides a digital connection, which means that the digital signal from the iPhone/iPod is transmitted directly to the receiver. This minimizes noise interference and allows use of the MCR-232 DAC, rather than the /iPhone/iPod DAC, resulting in more precise sound reproduction.

The aluminum hairline finish of the front panel and knobs also contributes to the over high class appearance of the system.

The speakers have a beautiful, high quality finish that looks elegant in any setting. The speaker grilles are also designed for good looks, but can be removed for a more basic appearance.

The 2-way bass reflex speakers employ 4-3/8” woofer units and are supported by three legs that prevent external vibrations from affecting the sound. The result is strong bass and rich mid-range and treble, so you enjoy high sound quality with good imaging.

Speaker cabinets vibrate, degrading sound quality. To overcome this, Yamaha drew upon its musical instrument manufacturing expertise to develop an internal structure called VCCS (Vibration Control Cabinet Structure), which uses strategically placed pieces of a composite material that provides excellent vibration isolation performance.

The subwoofer out terminals lets you connect a subwoofer to enjoy enhanced bass power and response. The AUX-in terminal allows connection of other audio components.

The remote control has a simplified design that makes it extremely easy to use.
