Great high quality receiver. I would definitely purchase it again.

Like this receiver but came with wrong remote. Remote works but missing battery cover. Unit was refurbished though.

The receiver has worked excellently! Had all the options I wanted!

Purchased on sale and have on regrets...replaced a 10 year old Sony.

Mind blowing sound, you won't regret the purchase

For entry midlevel audio receiver, it’s nice definitely sounds better upgrading to HD

Very nice receiver. Easy to operate! Would recommend to anyone.

Very nice system and easy to use. Highly recommend the product for the price.

Yamaha Receiver. Works well. Installed fine. Would buy again.

Great! Works well with all our components and was easy to install.

I am a lifelong Yamaha consumer owning over the years dozens of various pieces of audio and video Yamaha equipment. This unit was purchased to replace an existing 10 year old Yamaha AV in a home theater setup. From the moment I turned the unit on it was a disaster. HDMI CEC errors, buggy with complete loss of video and audio. The HDMI eARC was again buggy, the software update process happened without warning, then the unit was acting erratically and was unusable. Reset of the hardware was performed, unit looked to work okay, then every issue it had returned. Listening to audio worked however the sound was very thin and lifeless. Then I did some reading online about these products from Yamaha. Oh dear. The entire unit looked cheap, had no mass to it, the display and buttons were also very poor, junky looking. The sound was very lacking in general. SO I put my original 10 year old Yamaha AV receiver back into service and the first you notice is the sound. It sounds MUCH better and it WORKS flawlessly. All the HDMI CEC functions work perfectly without delay or flaw. Yamaha has maybe taken a turn with new 'innovative' products like this one, designed by someone who is likely new to the industry without any understanding of the Yamaha brand. Yamaha should be ashamed to approve a poor product like this one for sale. It should be replaced with something that works and at least provides stability.

Excellent stereo and tv sounds. Has a app and easy to use

This receiver is great. Very easy set up and user friendly. I Highly recommend it.

Awesome receiver. Tons of power. Would absolutely recommend

Great upgrade to my RX-V481... Easy to set up.... nice look.

I was really disappointed in this receiver. First, it does look cool and that’s about it for good qualities. Getting past the obviousness that this still isn’t 120hz capable and probably won’t be, it is horrible. Even after updating, the receiver showed a black screen upon switching inputs. The only way to fix this was to turn the receiver off and back on again. Also, especially with my Xbox Series X, sometimes the screen would either just be green or the video would be centered and only take up about 1/5 of the screen. Again, turn it off “CLICK” and back on again “CLICK!!!!!” Every single time I turned this thing on it was issue after issue. Small annoyances could be overlooked, like the beyond annoying “CLICK” mentioned above when turning it on and trying to switch inputs (which were so much louder than any previous receiver I’ve ever had), but the video issues were too much to overcome so I returned the unit. It’s obvious Yamaha were in over their heads disingenuously shoehorning features into this thing in order to release it in time. It’s sad as I’ve always had great experiences with Yamaha products, from drums and hardware to audio products but this should not have been released in it’s current form.

Does everything! App needs a little work though, it can be a little buggy.

Excellent receiver. I like the musiccast feature. The YAPO setup is nice.

Great product and easy to connect. Speaker calibration is easy to do .
