Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Yamaha AV receiver is an excellent choice for the price. This is my second one as I have the 7.2 controller the main section of the house and this one the 5.2 in the theater room. I highly recommend this unit as it has multiple functions. Not only is it a great receiver but has Bluetooth capabilities and control through the muisccast app. I can sync the units together and be able to control the whole house and different zones with the use of my phone. In addition, I have this controlling my video wall with the use of 1 button. The sleek look and easy controls makes it perfect for any room whether it is hidden or exposed. I have my firestick and ps5 running through this unit and converting video to a 2x2 video wall and audio to a 5.1 surround sound! You will not be disappointed with this unit!

Where to start…. I replaced a 15 year old Sony STRDG1500 AV receiver. Wanted more HDMI input and wanted the Ethernet input. I have to say this unit is a dream for my 5.1 system. Astounding audio quality. Have a firestick plugged directly into unit. Firestick has Ethernet plugged directly into it. I have Ethernet plugged in directly to the AV unit to stream Amazon and Sirius music. Don’t even need the WiFi capability. I use the Yamaha music cast app to tell the AV unit what to stream. I am super impressed with the ability to log into the AV receiver itself using its IP address to access all of the set up menus! Unit has bi directional communication with my TV as well. I could go on and on but to sum up I absolutely recommend.

Great Receiver !! Over the yeara i have had many receivers but this one has all the bells and whistles you need for endless entertainment. My favorit is the controller on my ipad with Musicast. Control everything and configuring anything from the ipad in an easy to use UI. Clear and crisp sound at higher DBs.

I’m very happy with my Yamaha RX-V4A receiver. I love being able to control it with the app. My cabinet is built into the wall, and controlling without having to keep the door open was important. The auto- sensing between TV inputs is seamless. The set up was simple and easy, and it sounds great.

I went to Best Buy to start buying an older version of this product. A salesman there had told me about the update on this amplifier. I hesitated, but he told me it would be best for my surround sound that I was looking for. So I listen to him and it was the best ever.

Nice amp, lot's of clean power,have it hooked up to Klipsch RP8000's, excellent clean and crisp sound. The equalizer feature is very cool.

Great value for the price. I'm running Paradigm speakers and a Definitive Technologies sub - this receiver definitely gets the most out of them. The Yamaha app is useful and easy to operate. Also integrated nicely with my Google Home setup. Great receiver, highly recommend

Having the ability to pass 4K through the receiver has really simplified the cable setup. The design is sleek and modern and the display has multiple brightness settings for minimal distraction from movies. My biggest gripe is the lag in the on screen menu selections. Also, changing the display to show the audio format was on the receiver and not on the remote or menu, which took forever to figure out. Wish there were more watts but an excellent product.

Sounds amazing and is easy to hook up, this is excellent for a newer system or to get into the home theater life!

One of the best receivers I’ve ever used, and I got it open box!! Has perfect HDMI CEC control and seems to be less fussy about cable quality than my old Sony one was. Xbox Series S and X both have excellent support for its feature set and they both work well together. Airplay works great (but only for audio, for video you’ll need an Apple TV) and the MusicCast app is one of the better “manufacturer specific” apps I’ve seen for an AV product!

This is hands down the best value on the market right now if you want airplay / google home + surround sound. At $350 vs a Bose or Sonos stereo receiver for $600, it beats these products in every category other than size - the Yamaha is a standard sized av receiver. I have bought 4 of them for my house and will probably buy at least 2 more. Fit well in AV rack systems.

Nice crisp sound, better than my previous Yamaha. Also, for some reason, lightning does not seem to cause the Rocketfish surround sound transmitter to go out as it did before.

Great out put power,reasonably priced,no distortion, have owned other yamaha receiver's, an i can say I've never been disappointed;)

Worked well with my earc 85 inch Samsung Tv and 5.1 sound swtup

Excellent purchase price. Easy to connect and operate.

I am very pleased with the performance of this Yamaha Surround Sound receiver. Easy to use, easy to connect works great! Very pleased with the surround sound performance in our small living room.

So fare I really like this Yamaha RX-V4a AV receiver setup was pretty easy and the sound is great for the price. Internet worked well and was able to get music cast controller working. This is my first Yamaha AV I was all ways a Pioneer fan but didn’t see one for this kind of price. Just needed some thing newer for our garage / summer hang out. I did see some reviews where reliability may be in question ? Hope I’m lucky only had hooked up for 2 days but so far very satisfied

This receiver was easy to set up. Gave me just what I wanted. Great sound and plenty of power.

I’ve had about five different Yamaha receivers and I loved them all, but this is the best yet the music cast is one of the best and easiest features to listen to your music, especially on an iPhone or any other services that you use you can stream from there too it’s really good and the quality of sound is amazing. I thought it would suffer some, but it did not streaming it from those services and from my iPhone Yamaha did it again I do miss the other two channels. I had but 5.1 fits were perfect or actually 2. Not to mention with Best Buy‘s price match it’s gone down twice and they’ve given me my credit for that so that’s pretty cool too.
