    Great upgrade from what we had. Does the job! The Best Buy Employee let us open the box to ensure that we were buying a receiver that would work with the same connections as our old setup.

    I love the product. Quality sound. Extra bonus you have 3 hdmi ports that can be used by game systems rather fight with not having enough ports on tv.

  • Good Receiver, but pictures are deceiving

    So far have been happy with the performance BUT do feel that the connections on the back of the unit are misleading. When searching for a receiver I wanted one that accepted regular RCA inputs in addition to HDMI inputs. When I saw that this receiver had two (2) sets of RCA inputs I was thrilled. I did not, however, read the fine print that if you want the video from those RCA inputs to show up your tv/projector, you would have to run a separate video RCA cable from the back of the receiver to the tv/projector. Was very disappointed that the necessary hardware wasn't already included in the receiver to upscale the video, definitely would have affected my purchase.

    Overall pretty happy with this. Biggest gripe is the auto input select, which there's no apparent way to disable and it's inconsistently responsive to my comcast remote. I use this 99% of the time for my TV watching, but either I have to manually turn it and sometimes it randomly selects the wrong input and I have to manually select the xfinity box,

    I replaced a broken Marantz receiver with this Yamaha and could not be more pleased. The sound and video in our 5.1 home theatre is outstanding.
