For connectivity, the YAS-71 includes digital optical, digital coaxial, and analog audio in. Once connected, the YAS-71’s receiver can process Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Pro Logic II audio, eventually unleashing it with 110 total Watts of power across 4 interior channels—plus the subwoofer). The Yamaha YAS-71 basically functions as a 4.1-channel system by providing a surround sound experience without the need for a conventional multi-speaker system.
