was time to replace my Yamaha CX 830, MX 830 preamp, amp and also upgrade my receiver for surround sound. I am very impressed with this unit, I have zero background noise, all my components sound great. the automatic calibration of the speakers for surround sound balance was easy to use.

The only reason I'm giving those three stars instead of five it's because of two things to get the video to work half the time you have to have two sources hooked up an order for one source to show up on screen and this is one of the last avrs affected by the improper HDMI boards they put in aka the bug and I'm waiting for Yamaha to start the HDMI replacement board program. The only upside about this is it has really good audio. I would only recommend the RX-A4A and up with Yamaha.

A little too much. after buying this and bringing it home I realized this is too sophisticated for my needs. It is high quality but had features I would never use. I returned this and bought a simpler Yamaha receiver.

This appears to be a very powerful unit. I would give it 5 stars if it included a detailed manual on all of its uses. If you’re a novice then I’d probably not recommend this as you’ll be spending a lot of time on the internet researching “how to’s.”

Shipment directly to my house was very quick. Set-up was very easy and the best of all is the sound. Surround Sound is unreal with movies and the awesome stereo sound with music videos. I am also pre set when I want to go to an 8k tv. It is placed in a Sanus cabinet so I won't be posting any images, sorry.

I found the sound quality of the Yamaha to be pretty good, however, I did not like the app interface or the limitations placed on how mp3 files can be played off a USB drive. When you have an extensive music library, ease in access to songs, artists, albums, etc. is important and Yamaha fails here compared to Denon's Heos and Onkyo. At the price point these receivers go for now, consumers deserve a solid interface. Were it not for this, I would have kept the unit as I liked the sound settings for surround and otherwise, the receiver was good.

I have been a Yamaha fan for years and so it was an easy choice to pick this AV receiver. It sounds as good as it looks. I am having a little issue seeing the smaller screen on the front panel. Other than that, it is a great unit.

Needed to replace a Lifestyle 48 Bose system (which I loved). Geek Squad came to the house and recommended the Yamaha with a speaker set 7.1+1 speaker set up. Couldn’t be happier. The features on the Yamaha are probably more than I’ll ever use. Just interested on how it sounds and it sounds great!

Yamaha RX A2A receiver has enough power to work all my home theatre speakers and towers plus the OLED TV. Design is sleek and remote control is easy to use. Interfaces well with Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney +. Price was a bit high but not as expensive as other Yamaha models.

The receiver works great for my small apartment. It took me a while to figure out how to get the settings just right. It works for for me. I did receive a software update which apparently updates the 120 hz for 4K but not sure, I don’t have a 120hz tv just regular 4K at 60

I would have given 5 stars but I didn’t get to try everything out yet. Not sure how to obtain internet radio stations and haven’t hooked up zone 2 speakers yet. Quality sound as expected from Yamaha.

I am very pleased with this Yamaha receiver. Provides multiple HDMI inputs for many devices. Setup was relatively easy but being old school, I prefer a real hands on manual. Thus the 4 rating.
