    Have been looking for a reliable, reasonably price, for my components in the workshop. This Yamaha was a perfect fit. Love the Bluetooth especially. Would recommend this unit for the power (200 watts), and the versatility.

    Chose this unit for use in an outdoor setting (poolside) and because I trust Yamaha products. It has nice modern features and produces great sound for a small unit. Its got enough power for outdoor volumes required with more ambient noise present.

    I cut my teeth on receivers in the 70's, and I still miss them. Not because they were better, I'm sure they weren't. But most of today's receivers have every function hidden under a bunch of menus. I like a bass "know" and a treble "knob" and a tuning "knob." This doesn't have those, but they ARE easy to get on the remote, so that's the next best thing. Also, while it doesn't have a separate out for a subwoofer, I hooked my sub as the "b" speakers and it all works as it should. Finally, I live in an area of dead FM, and while this still has trouble pulling in a lot of stations, it is considerably better than the old one I replaced.

    I used this for bookshelf speakers in my office and it works like a dream. This isn't for a home theater unless paired with another AVR but it works wonderful for a 2 channel set up and pairs with blue tooth. I got another for my dad and he loves it as well.

    I replaced a Yamaha receiver that I had for over 30 years. Yamaha is a good reliable brand. This receiver serves my needs. The volume is weak as noted in other reviews but for the price it was a good buy for me.

    Had to boost the bass quite a bit to equal my vintage Kenwood, but, it provides decent sound for an inexpensive unit.

    Great quality, at a really great price. Performance is as advertised. I am very happy with my purchase. The only thing that could put this product over the top is a phono input. As is, a turntable that is not line level output requires a preamp to connect to one of the several line level inputs. Also, it should be said, it was really a great bonus to get my purchase delivered the next day for free. Puts Best Buy at the top of my list of suppliers when I am considering an online purchase.
