    I bought this receiver (first one I've owned) to power some klipsch towers mostly for music purposes. I didn't expect for it to make such a difference when actually watching TV and movies though. This thing has great power and is easy to use. A lot of features. The only thing missing from this model is that it doesn't have yamaha music cast.

    Yamaha 5.1 home theater receiver

    For an entry level home theater receiver, this Yamaha is great. The setup was really easy and the room assist microphone (YPAO) was easy and fun. I love it right now but I hope I will feel the same in a year. I did purchase a separate sub-woofer to add to the sound, but it has also been seamless in the incorporation of sound in my living room.

    I bought this amp to drive an in-wall 5.1 system that came with my home. It definitely works and sounds excellent. I'm not sure if it's the Samsung TV or the amp that made it difficult, but getting this thing in the right mode to actually output 5.1 channel audio was a pain.

    Yamaha has exceptional sound Quality and longer Lifetime then most of its competitiers. I'm 67 Years Old and this is only my third Yamaha audio system. Thank you Best Buy for Handling Yamaha audio equipment at a very fair and competive price.

    Got it to replace a 9.1 channel receiver although this model was 1500 cheaper it worked really great and even had a bluetooth option. But when the volume is cranked all the way up the sound i distorted a little.

    Bought this home theater receiver to replace a Denon that was cutting in and out. It has a lot more features and options for sound depending on what you are watching. It's been a good purchase for us.

    I purchased this unit to replace my Denon unit that crapped out on me. So far I'm pretty satisfied with this unit , the only issue I've had so far is not being able to pair any devices via Bluetooth. This isn't a major concern for me but might be for others. Otherwise I feel this unit provides good sound for the price.

    Very easy setup...bought a new home and previous owner did not leave receiver, just speakers and unmarked wires out the wall. Would recommend using banana plugs for connections as it took me a bit determining L/R/C...the surround setup/calibration feature was helpful for this. but once complete all functioned well. Very satisfied.

    First time buying a Yamaha receiver and it didn't disappoint. It's ultra HD really shows on my 86 inch LG TV. It boosts the sound through my Klipsch speakers with an amazing sound as well. Can't go wrong with this receiver.

    I have own Yamaha receivers for years. Great receivers. This one was an exceptional buy. There are so many features and options you must print out the 100+ pages in the detail manual.

    super easy setup, has a mic for sound fine tuning based on room, easily detected device that's plugged into each hdmi slot, (plugged in ps4 and it recognized it was a ps4 and not a blu ray player or xbox) the back has plugins for banana plugs for better speaker connectivity. overall a great entry level receiver

    This replaced a 20-year-old RCA receiver. It's been in service a few weeks with no issues. One minor drawback was the number of audio inputs on the back. I'm running a cable box, DVD player, and CD player. I had to get creative with an optical digital cable to make it all work. The only disappointment, and it's not unique to this brand, is that the new receivers don't have the subwoofer amplifier built into the unit. They're all designed for a subwoofer with an external amplifier. My RCA unit had the old style subwoofer. Rather than put out another few hundred bucks for a good subwoofer, I'm using the audio features available, especially the bass boost, and simply not using my subwoofer.

    Bought this to use on hard wired speaker system in house with multiple speakers. No offense to their geek squad who quoted me a $5k system and $1k to install but - I only needed this receiver. Works great. Can use with radio, Bluetooth, tv. Quality name made a quality product.
