    Very Poor Quality Item

    I purchased this item and about two months later it started going out and not working. I don't know what the problem is, but a small sign comes up and says "speaker" and the receiver shuts down. IN order to get it to work at all, I have to turn the volume down to almost mute. WHAT JUNK!!

    Worst sounding receiver I have ever listened to!

    Thought I couldn't go wrong with Yamaha. Boy, was I wrong. The sound is downright flat. No dynamics whatsoever. It was supposed to be my garage stereo. I instead connected an old Clarion car head unit to a 35 year old a/d/s/ power plate amplifier with only 40 watts per channel. Now I have punch and dynamics with the exact same speakers. Yamaha and Best Buy should be embarrassed to sell this receiver for any price. I won't even try to re-sell this receiver on Craigslist. I would feel guilty. Wish I could return it but Best Buy won't take it back and you can guess why!

    disappointed with this Yamaha receiver

    In the past Yamaha was always a good reliable brand. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case with this stereo receiver. Out of the box I attempted to set up the FM stereo radio. I couldn't hear anything (even with headphones) I had the volume up to 50 and the FM signal was barely audible...very disappointed I returned the unit to the store for a refund. Quality control in the countries these receivers are manufactured leave a lot to be desired...

    Yamaha R-S202BL stereo receiver

    I ordered the Yamaha R-S202BL online for store delivery. I set up the receiver with heavy gauge speaker wire connected to Yamaha NS-6490 speakers. Much to my disappointment there was barely any audible response. Even with volume at 50...I returned the unit to the store for a refund. Very disappointed knowing it was the Yamaha brand known for quality
