Quality entry level receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Consistent quality with 2 Yamaha predecessors I owned. Only needed this upgrade for ARC capabilities to drive my surround setup. Working as expected. The automated speaker optimizer(YPAO) was a nice touch.

OK but not what I thought
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was told this had A and B speakers when I bought it but it doesn't. The Bluetooth doesn't work really great either. It sounds pretty good when it works.

Good 5.1 system
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A good and basic 5.1 receiver. While it has a USB port on the front, it doesn't work for a hard disk. It can be used to power a chrome cast which is plugged in the back side, so it be good if the USB port is in the back. The remote buttons are little confusing and needs reorganization.

Yamaha & DirectTv a match not made in Heaven
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Right up front I no longer have this Receiver. I was very happy with it and the sound quality was fantastic if not for the following issue I would rate it 5 stars. I am not an audiophile by any means but do know great sound when I hear it. The set up was easy and everything from on screen menu to the ease of use of the remote were great. Once set up and ready to roll is where things started to fall apart for me. First Apple TV would not play. I did everything short of a hard reboot. Of course one thing Twas o make sure I did not have a dead HDMI port I switched in the Fire stick which was fine. So my conclusion was Yamaha dose not like Apple TV streaming. Next Issue. I use DirecTv and could not pair my remote. Not a deal breaker by any means. The real issue was even w/o the DirecTv remote paired as I would use the remote it would constantly change the Audio output to another source,HUGE Problem. At that point I could not switch it back to hear audio. I would either have to Change the Channel turn off the DirecTv Receiver or the Yamaha. No changes of settings I did would stop it from happening. NOTHING> The 2 systems had a cross frequency issue and it could not be eliminated. I fought with it for almost a month and The only option I had was to return the Receiver. So that's where it stands for me. I loved it but yet hated it and I am still w/o a receiver at this point.

Good value, some minor issues
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the best receivers you can get for 300 or less. On Bluetooth playback, the first half second of a song will be skipped, which is a minor issue, but a little annoying. Most of the DSP modes are not that great. The room correction was pretty good however.

Excellent but Volume Display is confusing
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this receiver but the weird volume control numbers with the positive and negative features are confusing. I like a simple 1-20 display to keeping it simple.

really good reciever for the money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.has plenty of menu's to adjust your sound system to fit your room and speakers. the self adjust feature with included mic is a good starting point. Allows you to adjust each speaker individually with level and equalization.

Not so user friendly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this receiver to replace and old Denon that was going out. Picture and sound are nice. Great audio settings to tailor it to your sound liking. However, setting this up is a pain connecting it to your tv / hdmi. By using the setup button and selecting Hdmi for hdmi control “on”, picture and sound works for a few seconds and then sound goes back to audio 1 broadcast with no sound. Setting hdmi control off, the unit stays on but won’t shut off with the cable remote, even after programming it to read the receiver. It’s not the most user-friendly to set up.

Review
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If this is anything like the last one that I have, it should be a wonderful receiver. The other one lasted me over 35 years and it still works well today except I need modern day plugs in the back.
