I recommend
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced my old 80s Sansui amp that I was having trouble with last year at my camper. I had already tried a cheaper amp and was disappointed with its poor performance. My speakers are outside and I needed something with the power to crank up the volume. This receiver did not disappoint! The Bluetooth works great and the sound is crisp and clear.

Nice unit
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great unit. I use it to run some outdoor Bose speakers and use my phone to Bluetooth to it. I like how it is simplistic to operate. Good power.

Best low cost option receiver
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does what it says it does, nothing more. Bluetooth works though connection is not quick. I think others have commented that this sounds much more like a 75 watt receiver than a 200 watt receiver. But sound it crisp. AM-FM reception works well with the simple antennas they provide. Easy setup. Since there is little to compete in the price range you have to admit you get exactly what you pay for. Good for a small room receiver, dorm room receiver, etc. Just don't expect it to drive demanding speakers.

Exactly As Expected and More
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Old Yamaha receiver broke after 20 years or so. Picked up this one for the bluetooth. It's a game changer. Sound is great of course, it is a Yamaha after all. The bluetooth makes it so much easier as opposed to being corded. I use it to listen to music while working in my home office in between virtual meetings and everything else. Wasn't aware of the feature before buying, but really appreciate the auto shut off when not in use for a long time. Has been real nice when i walk away and come back after a long time and find that it is in fact off. Hooking up bluetooth is super easy. Really happy with the purchase!

Work shop sound
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good bang for the buck! Solid product.

Unexpected power down.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this about a week ago. It sounds great. I use it for my CD player and the FM radio. I would have given it 5 stars but I have a slight problem with it. I usually listen to FM when falling asleep. However, after 9 hours, the unit powers down. I have no idea why. There's nothing in the manual about it. There is a sleep timer (mine is set to off) that goes as high as 120 minutes.

Fun getting the Albums out again
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just what I needed. Wife gave me a unexpected turntable for xmas so decided to create an old school 2 channel stereo stack with 4 100w speakers like had back in my room as a kid. This thing does the trick and it has Bluetooth with lets me steam from phone or other devices. On to EQ so I can fine tune the sounds that shape me.

Great, but lacks some volume.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven’t been using this stereo receiver very long but I it seems to work for my needs. It allows me to hook up a variety of equipment which includes my computer. I’m not exactly sure what controls sound output but, the volume is not as strong as I would have liked. I have to set the volume setting anywhere from 50 to 70 to get enough volume, and that is not a blasting sound. The max volume setting is 99. I am using 8 ohm speakers as recommended, so I’m not sure why the volume it lacking. The Bluetooth connection is great! I love having that convenience for streaming music. I also like that most of the main controls are on the front, so I don’t need to be dependent on the remote. The item was well packed and survived shipping without any damage; good job Yamaha.

Great unit especially because of Bluetooth works w
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just bought this unit yesterday. It sounds great, the build quality is nice also. What surprised me, is the Best Buy associates knew very little about this device. I asked whether I could run a subwoofer off of it and I got a lot of detail about why I could not do so. That was all wrong! It runs great, I take it out of channel a to the Bose acoustic mass and then run the satellite units off that subwoofer. It is a passive subwoofer the sound is spectacular. Sure, the satellite speakers are a little bit tiny and lack mid range. However I could also have a run B channel into a powered sub and again there was massive debate with the Best Buy associate who kept saying it would not work. His reasoning was unclear and faulty in my opinion. I have done this with an old receiver also and they work great. I highly recommend this unit.
