    I got this for the garage . wondered how the Bluetooth would sound. I did not expect much . turns out I really like it and the Bluetooth sounds and works very good . FM is poor in my area the receiver is very sensitive and works good with the supplied antenna . and with my old 10 inch 3 way Cerwin Vegas it rocks . can turn it to 100 and no distortion .

    A decent product for a affordable price . I wish they had included a phonograph turntable preamp built in . Otherwise its ok works with my smart phone and I pad bluetooth to allow my Pandora music to be heard over the system. One thing that could have been improved is the selection buttons and labels they are a bit small and hard to read.

    Exactly what we were looking for. We wanted a stereo receiver to power passive speakers. My wife uses this to play her drums along with music through this receiver. Easy to adjust volume, bass and treble with the remote control.

    Zero stars if I could. This was problematic from day 1. Cutting in and out of our integrated (built into home) speakers.Randomly not working at all. volume issues and remote control issues if it did work. I assumed it was my phone which was 2 years old and waiting for my chance to upgrade it. I upgraded when the Yamaha was 3 weeks old - too late to return to Best Buy I learned. They have a 2 week return window? BB are never seeing my money again. I bought a Sony for the exact same money on Amazon and it works like a dream - do not waste your money on this. I expected more from a known brand. I have Sony everything in entertainment and have for decades but I thought Yamaha deserved a chance - I was so wrong. I lost money and faith with BB because I couldn't return it. Bye Bye BB! I don't need you and your poor customer values.
