    This model had some significant defects. 1. The chipset which controls the querying of fresh video / audio signal on the currently selected HDMI port send to passively wait for the connected device to provide a signal (which won't necessarily happen if it's on standby). This causes the amplifier to go to a blank screen or simply NOT fully switch to the HDMI connected device. You'll have to force the device to give a signal and even then, the amplifier still might not switch over. 2. The video and audio of and HDMI connected device (other then the TV itself) will be SIGNIFICANTLY out of sync. After lots of tweaks to the settings, you might reduce it, but it's likely to remain to some degree. Everything else works fine, but these two flaws are the PRIMARY functions of the 4K HDMI Dolby Digital and DTS receiver. So, for me, it's not worth it.

    The sound occasionally cuts out briefly. Not sure if it’s the receiver. But I generally like Yamaha products.

    For a $300+ receiver the sound is average. Am finding the menu difficult to see and follow. Ive had Yamaha recievers for last 30 years and wanted the new hdmi ports etc.

    Sounds great, works well, expected smoother spin of the large volume knob, has more resistance than I'd like.

    The speakers (Definitive Technology) are pretty good. The Amp I bought earlier (Yamaha RX-V4A) is garbage.

    After 4 months, it has decided that generating actual output to speakers is no longer interesting. It seems to do everything else, except its primary function. It isn't as if this thing was rode hard and put away wet - I have rarely used it at all, and never over half volume. Also, the support team keeps bankers' hours. I will have to wait until Monday to talk to anyone about repair or replacement.
