Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this reciever upon while looking for an amp/reciever to use with an amazon echo. The only requirement I had was it had to automatically power when a signal from a source (the echo) was detected. Although this reciever will power off when no signal is detected after a period of time it will not power on when a signal is detected. Returned and hen with a russound amp.

Ordered open box- excellent to save a couple bucks. Huge mistake. First one was loose in the box with no protective packaging, no paperwork and missing a part. Turned out to be defective. Best Buy sent out replacement- also open box- excellent that had the packaging , paperwork and parts. However, it also was defective with the same problem- turns on then turns off loudly right away. tried resetting numerous times. Dealing with customer support was a nightmare and they barely spoke or understood english, They insisted I drive 1.5 hours each way and bring to a store even though they were both shipped to me. Done with Best Buy.

Sound quality exists only at low volume . 200watt is a huge overstatement ! At 100% volume . Which it will do. Sound quality is poor. Even approaching this. Do not recommend . For premium sound quality you are going to pay much more. I did . I am completely satisfied with it.

I bought this receiver for one reason and it was the Bluetooth connect feature. Read the reviews of how great it was people claiming they could connect to it any where in there house. This was not the case for me only worked if i was in the same room as the receiver. For this reason only i returned it.

Waste of money. Won’t stay on. Never has. No speakers or other units have been connected, so not an issue there. Tried resetting, didn’t work. Talked with customer support and they don’t know either and suggested that it be returned or repaired. It was a gift so the return date has come and gone. Never buy Yamaha.

Sounds good but it randomly (very occasionally) just shuts off.

Worked fine for two weeks. Went to turn it back on and would not turn on. Unplugged it and plugged it back in then it came back on. After roughly 3 minutes it shut off again by itself. The only way to get it back on is to unplug it then plug it back in and then I get 3 minutes again.

We had it for a few weeks, however my husband wanted more power.

Great tuner but one spring clip broke already. Tuner sensitivity is exceptional but sounds a little lean.

I have to turn the volume up to 25 just to hear anything at all

Can not use Bluetooth function without a remote. No Remote Control included.

Bought an opened box Yamaha receiver. Should not have done that. The receiver turns off immediately after turning it on. Now I have to drive to a Best Buy to get it fixed. The amount of money for gas to get there will make up the difference between this one and a new one.

Forget this Yamaha product .... my unit is in permanent standby mode .... unit will sleep (shut off) because the standby mode can't be turned off. Major design flaw, Yamaha is just dumping this product with a low price .... there's no way to circumvent this problem.

No HDMI hook up. Can't use to play my TV since the TV doesn't have bluetooth option.

I bought this receiver because i have always thought Yamaha made great products. The price was also a deciding factor. This is the second one that I bought because the first one popped when I hit the power button, sparks came out of the vents on top and smoke filled the room... The first one failed after about 4 months with very limited use but I thought it was just a bad receiver. Well, this one did the same exact thing the 3rd time i turned it on. These receivers are complete junk and very dangerous. DO NOT BUY YAMAHA!!!

The unit quit working less than 30 days after we hooked it up. We heard a loud pop and that was it. Best Buy corporate was not on que with the stores, as I was told to return it (with an appt time) and it would be fixed/replaced at the store, and when I got to the store, they turned me away. Very bad Cust service

Bluetooth stopped working after using during the daytime only and turning off in night

Awesome stereo receiver, works great playing music from iPad. It is bluetooth compatible.

Good not great and too large for what it delivers. I wouldn't buy it again

The Bluetooth function is great, really enjoy the ease how the function works.
