    Very nice receiver, with lots of power and Bluetooth connectivity is excellent. Easy to use with other components line 3 has an output which you could use it as a pre-out to hook up another component or run into an amp. I’ve been up to 80 feet away without losing connection to the Bluetooth even walking outside it goes through walls excellent no interruptions. The only minor drawback is the small spring clips for speaker connections.

    Provides great sound. I paired this with Yamaha outdoor speakers. Very easy to operate. You don't need the remote to set channels. Totally satisfied. Bluetooth is a great feature. Great price for the sound quality.

    The need was for a basic 2 channel stereo amplifier with enough power to drive one set of speakers. Primarily using for playing my vinyl collection, cassette tape collection and the occasional CD. After hooking it all up and firing it up for the first time, I was pleasantly surprised not only with the power but with the fidelity of the sounds coming from that old vinyl. The only con for this unit is it did not have the pre-amp built in for the turntable. That is a feature that's hard to find on many receivers these days at 3 times the price. A separate pre amp purchase was a simple and economical fix.

    I reviewed a number of potential receivers at this price point, and decided to buy the Yamaha 200W to replace a 30 year old AIWA mini component stereo. The form factor just barely fit in the cabinet it needed to go in. The sound is incredible. I have Klipsch 5 floor standing speakers and at a level of 85, the sound was crystal clear with zero distortion. These speakers are old - had them for 35 years - but they were built tough. One complaint is that you MUST start with your sound setting at FIFTY to hear anything. I too, thought it was broken at first, but it was just the volume setting. Other than that, simple install and setup. Very happy with it. This will pair with our new TCL 55" TV.

    5 stars. Great receiver that has an excellent value for only $150. No fiddling with speaker wire when it doesn't fit correctly. Clear audio and Bluetooth. The Bluetooth introduces 60ms of lag (not a problem if using with just music).

    The new Samsung TV did not have the 'old style' audio out jack..and it was time to get a better receiver that could manage the more modern world... all I needed was a good rig..two channel stereo and Bluetooth Enabled compatible for sound from the TV.. works great. The Yamaha brand looks good and fit well and comfortably with my new 'high end' TV and existing Bose speakers. Works and sounds great! I recommend this receiver for friends and customers..

    What a great unit! It's well priced and served my needs perfectly. I have it setup in my garage powering 2 bookshelf speakers in the garage and then feeding 2 yamaha outdoor speakers. The audio is crisp and clear, there aren't any issues with the inputs and bluetooth is solid. The unit is sleek and there aren't any unnecessary or cluttered buttons. It's straightforward for a multi-channel stereo system and perfect.

    I've always respected Yamaha products. They are well respected in the high end audio community that I have been a part of for many years. This receiver is an outstanding bargain in it's price range. It would be a wise choice for someone needing a receiver's features. The bluetooth connection is a welcome feature for modern users.

    Great receiver for the price. Sound is a little different than my old Yamaha receiver but still sounds good and power is about the same as my R7. It has some good features like 5 inputs, Bluetooth and sleep timer.

    I'm a 1st time Yamaha electronics buyer other than a dirt bike I owned back in the early 80's. For now, it's sounds pretty good.
