A good experience
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Quality brand made a quality product
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Excellent Buy for a Wonderful Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Just what I needed for a small room
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 3rd Yamaha receiver - I trust their products. Needed something inexpensive and uncomplicated for a small room. This receiver was perfect. Probably deserves 5 stars, but the bluetooth seems fussy and I haven't figured out why yet.

Good receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the receiver installed last week, it is a very nice receiver and surround sound very good. The remote is very easy to work with, to change from Dish to DVD or games or whatever we want to do. Very good for the price. The only thing that I can criticize is that when you increase or lower the volume, it doesn't show on the tv.

Great sound for a reasonable price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This receiver sounds great and functions perfectly. The only is I had in setting it was with the speaker terminals. You have to wrap the wire around the post instead of threading into the terminal that has a secure clamp. Other than that it’s a great receiver fir a 5 speaker system

It’s ok
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don’t know what I am doing wrong but the sound keeps cutting out for a second or two randomly. It only happens when using tv audio through it, Bluetooth has no cut outs. I’m not super tech savvy so take this with a grain of salt because it is possibly user error. That being said it’s either tricky to set up or has audio issues. But when using Bluetooth I like it fine.

Versatile and easy to setup.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to setup, this is my second one. We put one in our movie room and the 2nd one in the motorhome to replace the out-dated system there. In both cases I needed a 5.1 system and this fit the build. Works great with DirectTV, Bluetooth and other sources. Greatly simplified the wiring from the older system.

Typical Yamaha first rate receiver/amp
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had a lightning strike and replaced my fried Yamaha unit for this as it was the closest model. Very satisfied with performance. This receiver can put out a lot of volume so be certain your speakers can handle the output at high volume if you want clarity and no clipping of the music.

I use Poke speakers and the sound is fantastic. I use the receiver mosly for home theater surround sound. I live in the country, only negative I have is the radio reception is not as good as I hoped.

Good for price!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can't give this receiver the "Excellent" rating. Truth is their not made like they used to be. This is replacing my 22 year old Yamaha RXV 793 which is twice as beefy in the weight and size dept and packed more low end power. Sure everybody raves about this units price and hdmi connections BUT if you wanna get punched in the face I'd spend more on Yamaha's high end series!

Just One Glitch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a reasonably priced home theater receiver that provides excellent sound . Mine has a strange glitch...when I set my system to come on all at once, the protection circuit puts the speakers on mute. I then have to turn off the receiver and then turn it back on for the speakers to fire up!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The receiver we chose was recommended by a person from the Geek Squad. We told him what we were looking for and he took the time to give us his recommendation, which was an excellent choice. Couldn't be happier!
