Great Budget Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My "ancient" Yamaha receiver that I've been using in my garage finally gave up the proverbial ghost, and I wanted a replacement with a coax antenna input for enhanced FM station reception (FYI, I'd installed a rather extensive omni-directional antenna above my garage replete with a pro-grade coax cable, lightning grounding protection, and upgraded bal-un unit). I can't honestly state that this receiver matches the overall performance of my previous unit given the wonderful FM station sensitivity that it had. But ATC, this unit is quite satisfactory driving upstairs and/or downstairs Dayton 6.5" speaker sets that allows me to really enjoy CDs and FM radio broadcasts at tolerable acoustic volumes, There's definitely much nicer receivers out there, but for the price point coupled with a coax FM antenna input, I'm very pleased overall with this unit.

Happy ears
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am using this for my backyard which is about a 1/4 acre of coverage. Connected to this I have a pair 200 watts Definitive Technology AW6500 and a powered 12" BIC PL- 200 II subwoofer. Together it is more than enough to fill the whole place with great clean sound. I listen to all music and it performs good as far as Bluetooth goes too.

Great for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hard to determine the actual sound quality with the speakers I have but for the price you can't go wrong. I have heard Yamaha systems in the past and was impressed. I wanted a receiver for the garage and didn't want to spend almost four times the cost for a Marantz low end receiver. East to set up. And for the price you can't beat it.

Everything you would expect from Yamaha!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sometimes you don't need a 5.1, 9.2 etc. AVR. This was a perfect companion to a pair of new ELAC B6.2 bookshelf speakers. The receiver delivers more than enough clean power and the Bluetooth feature works perfectly and expands my access to more listening sources. I have always had awesome experiences with Yamaha from the high end and now down to the low end of their product lines. Great value!

Good replacement for 35 yr old harmon pardon
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to replace my old 2 ch harmon kardon workhorse and the yamaha 2 ch was the best unit available for the money. Only downside is I need a phono pre-amp for my Dual turntable. Oh well, can't have everything. 4 stars.

Yamaha rocks, literally!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Yamaha has down the job for me for over 30 years, from vintage '70's turntables to 80's home theater to 90's 7.1 dolby. Bought this to pair with Yamaha outdoor speakers to replace a Demon receiver and old pair of Polks. Sounds fantastic! Much broader distribution of sound and easier bluetooth connection.

Crank it up!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely the best receiver I've bought in a while. Thankfully it doesn't have the "Surround Sound" crap. I just needed a solid receiver to drive my turntable and cd player. This does the trick PLUS it has bluetooth so I can stream to it, too. Really nice, and looks sharp in a minimalistic way.

Great Basic Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great basic receiver. Bought this for our neighborhood pool and it's a good receiver to drive a couple of speakers (up to 4), allow folks to connect via Bluetooth, or just listen to the radio. Buttons are labeled well and the interface is easy to use. It sounds great with no issues.

Nice Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted something reasonably priced to replace my 27 year old Onkyo receiver and this fit the bill perfectly. Hooked it up to my 40 year old Yamaha speakers and the sound is great. I love the Bluetooth feature too; I can listen to my podcasts and stream Pandora. Really happy with the purchase.

Sounds great!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great little 2.0 channel receiver. We have it set up to stream music to our 2 outdoor speakers. We're impressed by the quality and ease of set-up. The only thing that would have been nice is to have banana plug connectors instead, but the other comparable receivers at this price point don't have them either.
