    Decent With Small Speakers and No Sub

    Just a heads up to anyone needing a budget-friendly system. This unit cannot handle larger speakers, especially Bose brand. It does not support a subwoofer. I bought it for the Bluetooth capability, but sadly my Bose 301 Series V speakers were too much for this system and the board burned out after just 1 year of using just 1 time each week. If you do need this system, I would suggest small speakers at no more than 100 or so watts each.

    I added a new pair of bose 301 to go with the system and the sound was great. Even at high volumes. You will need to follow the easy instructions in the booklet to pair the yamaha bluetooth to the device (iPhone, etc) that you use. Pairing is needed so the devices can talk to each other. I am very pleased with this receiver.

    Super value! Bought this is a gift for a starter sound system with cassette deck and turntable. The great news is this amp will last a long time and wont need to be upgraded for a long time. There aren't many values like this in electronics. Glad Yamaha is still making this!

    Purchased this receiver for my outdoor Klipsch speakers. It was very easy to setup and connect. The receiver boosted up the clarity and quality of sound. The Bluetooth connection was very easy to setup to my iPhone and iPad devices. Highly recommend and for the price you can’t go wrong!

    Great Stereo Receiver

    I was looking for a good stereo receiver that I could hook-up my turn-table, cd-player, and computer to. This fit the bill perfectly, and it has blue tooth too, so I can play stuff from my phone. NOTE: this amp doesn't have a phono pre-amp, but it works fine with my newer Sony turntable because it has a built in pre-amp.

    Using this receiver with four outdoor speakers and an external airplay 2 source (airport express) that I have connected with indoor Sonos speakers. Sound is good for rca inputs, which works for my purposes. Just wish Yamaha or another company would make an airplay 2 compatible receiver.

    good receiver-but we only bought it because we couldn't find a good stereo w/ cd system, like a bookshelf system. Had to buy speakers for it, and a separate dvd player to hook up with this in order to play cd's. Bookshelf system would have been cheaper, easier, and less parts. Please bring those back!!

    Yamaha receiver purchase

    We had gone to buy a CD player a week prior and found a guy to help us that was actually an LG rep. He was extremely helpful. Nothing in stock but he showed us one on his phone that was great. He thought it should plug into the receiver we had (i didn't think so) so we scoped out the Yamaha while we were there in case. He showed the 'Blue Shirt' the CD player to order online and we snapped a pic of the Yamaha receiver that we did, in fact need. I would like for it ti be better lit for the buttons, etc., but the reception is great.

    Setup was simple and intuitive. Sounds great. Bluetooth connection to our laptop was quick and flawless. Now we stream to the receiver and listen through our Paradigm bookcase speakers.

    This is a replacement for a unit purchased 27 years ago. It’s been everything I could have imagined. This new unit finally allows me to add my cassette tapes to my music library which is a godsend.

    Priced right, this affordable unit provides multiple listening options via bluetooth or direct speaker connections. The AM/FM tuner brings in your favorite stations while your favorite music and podcasts can be received wirelessly from your device via bluetoorh technology. A great buy!
