    This is a reasonably priced stereo receiver with Airplay that allows me to stream online radio stations from my Apple computer in one room to far better speakers in another room. No user manual included and remote is not entirely obvious but otherwise a good choice.

    Worked out of the box, easy to connect to your network and control with your phone. (the app connect button is on the bottom right of the front panel, I missed it the first 10 minutes I was looking for it. ) Yamaha seems to make a reliable product, this is my third yamaha receiver. The first model I purchased lasted 10 years of being left on 24x7 in my living room.

    Excellent! We love the surround sound! The only drawback was we live in Troy, and you would not provide a set up service for us. We are in our 70's and certainly are not technical savvy. We have been customers for nearly 20 years and feel like this should have been a service that was included. included

    Too Little and a Bit too Late

    This receiver has been a source of frustration from me. In all my years have I never used such a buggy AV device, with missing features a year later. Its saving grace is that Yamaha has been updating the firmware regularly, but I reckon I won't be able to use my TVs VRR feature for another year at this rate. What is there now works great for the most part, but what is missing is taking a long time to make it. I still recommend this receiver for the average home cinema set up (at a reduced price), but I'm also worried some promised features might never make it.

    Works great with my new Samsung QLED

    Just bought a 75" Samsung Q60A along with a Denon S450BT receiver. Never could get the two to work properly through the ARC connection. The Yamaha RX-V4A did the trick. I think because they are both eARC (Denon only support ARC). Also channel separation seems better.

    It’s better than what I had for sure! Not sure why but I’m not hearing out of my rear speakers lately. Probably operator error. I’ll figure it out. But after 3 weeks it’s great!

    Wonderful unit. Sound clarity is amazing and when watching good sci-fi movies (as is my case) you really feel like youre there. As a hi-fi nut, Im very particular with my audio quailty and Yamaha has always stepped up to the plate. Definitely recommend.
