    Volume is terrible! Dial goes from 0-100 at 25% you barely hear it. 50% is good but not much difference when going to 100%. I have 4 Bose 201’s hooked to it but this receiver can push them.

    Has never ever worked in fact the first time I turned it on it just turned itself back off and that's all it's done I've owned it for a couple years and it has a short I would assume somewhere in it and it's too old to return so junk

    The perfect receiver/ amp for my medium sized studio. Adequate inputs for hardwired accessories, ie, turntables, recorders. The Bluetooth connection is flawless and allows me to enjoy my iPod to my extreme pleasure.

    I love the yamaha receiver, but was let down by best buy service. They told me something was coming and I wasted a day waiting. The least they could do is give me a gift card that I`ll use on next purchase

    I was excited to see this product in the store. It appeared to have all the connections I needed to hook up my entry level record player that has poor built in speakers. I connected the larger stereo speakers and record player and the sound quality is not much improved over the built in speakers, just louder. There are bass and treble controls only and no mid range. This has a major impact on adjusting the sound for me and is not stated until you have the unit on and are using it. It does work with bluetooth and pairing is very simple. Overall, I guess you get what you pay for.

    We bought this piece as a bit of a downgrade after having multiple problems with our last higher end receiver. It works just fine, but I must admit, I do miss the wifi capabilities of our former unit.

    I have the usual problems memorizing how to set up the tuner. But it is a very nice basic unit and the inputs are all RCA inputs. The only "frill" in a Bluetooth input, which I have not tried.

    The Yamaha 200W receiver performs well, as expected. Setting the radio presets is straightforward. No complaints, although it would be good if it had more input jacks.

    I wanted to listen to Vinyl again without breaking the bank. Yamaha has a great reputation for Receivers. I got this to pair with a Turntable and Speakers and couldn't be happier.

    This unit is just what we needed to play CDs through and tune in a few local radio stations. The LED display could be a bit larger as it is a bit small for us far-sighted seniors.
