    I was thinking about getting a sound bar but decided to get another receiver because it sounds so much better. This is an upgrade to the older model I had and it has several improvements and sounds great.

    It get confusing at times when you touch a button and things change and you can't get it back easily. The instructions are not all inclusive and as good as they sshould.

    Good price for a feature rich receiver. Still playing with it, but it sounds nice and exceeds my expectations. As other reviewers have said, it is not a ll modern and sleek, but it does look impressive.

    Great simple 5.1 AVR! Nothing too fancy, but does what does well; plays music and movies loudly! Bought as a gift for my older parents, along with some high-sensitivity speakers, and we can't be happier.

    First new receiver in about 40 years... upgrading from "old school" gear to this is a big leap for us older folks, and happy to do so. Geek Squad has been wonderful in helping us figure out the connections and making everything work.

    I've owned multiple Yamaha receivers over the years and have been very satisfied with the technology and also the looks. I wanted this receiver specifically for the Bluetooth capability. Works perfectly.
