Customer Ratings & Reviews

Perfect for a pair of outdoor speakers. Sound quality and ease of use made this a good purchase.

Great sound and easy to use. The only things missing are a Balance knob and a place to ground a turntable...

Sound is great! I have my tv, Xbox, record player and Blu-ray hooked up to this unit and the sound is phenomenal for the price. I have two 12” subs with mid and high tweeters in boxes hooked. I can hear my system literally down the street with my doors closed @ 70% volume. Bass and treble are adjustable.

I’ve bought two of these simple Yamaha receivers in the last year. They are great to add stereo to spots in your home where you don’t need 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound. And the built in Bluetooth compatibility is great... you can stream music from your cellphone or IPad. The receiver works well provided you hook up a good antenna. You can drive two or four speakers (the more efficient the speakers, the better). I have a variety of Klipsch bookshelf speakers that work great with this receiver. You also have 3 line inputs in addition to the AM/FM receiver and Bluetooth input. You can’t hook up an old style record turntable without preamplication, but not many folks use them anymore. There is no separate output for a subwoofer, but you could hook up a powered subwoofer to the speaker B output. Don’t expect the performance of a $1,000 amplifier/receiver, but I think you’ll be quite pleased with the quality of this Yamaha, especially for the price. And the remote control is very nice. I absolutely love it... that’s why I bought a second one for a guest bedroom. Of course you can run your TV “sound out” to the receiver. Just remember you won’t have surrounded sound, but you can have four speakers. I’ve also run my Sanyo Clip MP3 Player through this amplifier.

Amazing price for this name brand receiver. No complaints on this one, quality on a budget.

I bought this for my Bar/party room and patio/deck outside. I ran two speakers outside and got two inside.Lots of preset stations,and connected the Onkyo 6 disc changer to it. I have the option of just hearing the inside speakers,or just the outside, or all 4.

Great system. Meets all my needs, Bluetooth, sound, all excellent.

The new receiver was easy to set up, and it's easy to operate. It's working well with our CD player and speakers. Very pleased.

Bass is weak also there is no loudness button for low volumes. So compared to a car this has no low end torque. Much like a vtec the volume must be high to move the speakers. I use it for computer games input from computer. I do like the blue tooth function to stream music .

I purchaded this Yamaha 2-Ch receiver with sole purpose of powering my older Bose 301 speakers via bluetooth on my deck. Combination of purchaser reviews and my past history with Yamaha electronics mades this an easy choice and I couldn't be happier. Set up is easy, bluetooth has worked flawlessly, and sound is crisp and well powered.

It has it All, Awesome bass and clarity of all the music i play. Enjoy the bluetooth feature so Cool.

I had to replace an old model that stopped functioning properly. Everything works really well. The only difficulty comes when programming stations into presets. When you want to edit a preset, the way you have to go about it is not all that intuitive.

Very easy to setup sounds great. Price is reasonable.

Easy setup. Good power, more than enough power for outside speakers at pool. Never turned past 65 percent.

Product as described, pricing good and delivery great..Unit works great, highly recommend

sleek design. sized perfect. just what I needed. Tonal quality very good. Easy to set up and operate.

The Yamaha 200W 2-channel stereo receiver is a simple, bare-bones receiver for a low-key audio system at home or work. The internal Bluetooth connectivity is a great addition since pretty much everything has a Bluetooth connection these days. One issue I had was the size of the opening for the speaker wires. I wish they were a little wider to accommodate older, thicker wires.

Nice quality sound for the price! Bluetooth range is over 50 feet!

hooked it up pretty easy. Enough plug ins to do the job. Sounds good Remote works well

Receiver is a well-priced entry level unit. The sound range dynamic isn’t as wide as higher priced units, but adjusting bass and treble increased the deeper bass and higher ranges that I expect in an acceptable home receiver. My background is in electronics and electrical with three years in the audio business. So, my discerning tastes stretched my expectations of any audio instrument purchased. Overall, this is an awesome unit for the price.
