Customer Ratings & Reviews

This receiver sounds great. I cannot recommend it yet because it feels as it is unfinished. A lot of the bells and whistles won't work until a future firmware update is made available. When using ARC it always defaults to TV input when turning on regardless of signal. This is super annoying and almost a deal breaker. If this gets a fix and future firmware arrives in a timely manner it may move this to a 4-5 star rating.

Really like the soind quality. Worth it to get a 7.1 since it supports dolby whereas getting a 5.1 on yamaha does not.

Great receiver, we have had no issues with that great sound easy to use for functioning app.

For the first year, it was a great receiver. It replaced a Yamaha that we have had for over a decade. Unfortunately, this one only lasted a year before we got the red light of death. We have now brought back in the ole trusty receiver in the interim. Luckily the new one is still under warranty so we will be sending it out to be repaired or replaced. The quality of products are not what they use to be. Hopefully this is not a yearly occurrence.

I absolutely love this receiver. It has been almost 8 years since I have brought a new unit. My last receiver had a network and server option, but not like this unit with musiccast. Wow, you have so much control of how, where, and what you want to listen to. Alexa and Google home app voice controls even create another dimension. Added with Dolby Atmos, dual Sub outputs and my new Yamaha has had me smiling since purchase. The week I waited for it to arrive at my local store and some issues with Best Buy's inventory system have not mattered since getting home and hooking it up.

I really wanted to love this receiver. The sad part is that I really do love it, but it just has some bug issues that Yamaha needs to smooth out ASAP. This receiver has a really poor input/source switching bug where if you switch from one source to another, the picture is just black. Meaning the source that you're wanting to switch to doesn't appear at all. You have to shut the receiver off and turn back on. Very annoying. A new thing that it just started to do this week is the sound is cutting in and out for no reason. Don't know how to fix this issue. Going to try and return it for a different receiver.

So far I have been very happy with it good sound does what I expected

Upgraded from Yamaha 5.1 to this 7.1 Even with only 1 sub it sound powerful. Noticed driving 100 wpc to every speaker sounds fuller w more spatital sound.

Very Nice Unit. Everything connected easy and works great.

I had the Greek Squad come hook up my new Yamaha RX-V6A and I can not stop listening to this stereo receiver because it sounds amazing. Its 12 midnight but I can not go to bed, I just loving the crystal clear sound of this system. I listen to jazz all my life and I had a Denon receiver and It just didn't sound right, not sure how I ended up a Denon receiver? But this Yamaha RX- V6A is Eating Up the sound and sending beautiful music to my Martin Logan Mosaic speakers divinely. This Receiver is Simply Amazing, Let the Greek Squad set it up because it all Pro Set-up!!

Sounds great and was bery easy to hook up and get working.

Nice receiver very powerful and sounds incredible also very easy to operate.

This is the best receiver I have ever owned so far.

This receiver is great. Only issues we had is that it did not want to turn on once. I had to do a hard restart (unplugged it then replugged it) to get it to turn on. No other issues so far.

Easy to use. Sounds great. Does everything I want. Controller takes some time to learn all the features.

I've been a fan of Yamaha receivers for many years and the RX-V6A does not disappoint. The only thing I don't like is the manual is digitial, no paper copy. Any problems I've had with this reciever where quicky resolver by Yamahas customer support. Bottom line is, this is a great feature packed receiver.

Phenomenal sound. More features than what I need. Not the easiest to setup but once you have everything dialed in, the sound is just WOW!

We like this Yamaha receiver much better than the Sony we had because it allows the speakers to sound much clearer!!! You can understand the words in the shows much better!! Only trouble was setting it up. Had to Yamaha on the phone to adjust the volume in the settings.

Would do everything I wanted but was difficult to setup. Returned it for different model.

I love the sound. It was difficult for me to set up. I have Samsung TV with mini-connect box. I got the sound working through the receiver but not video. I called geek squad they sent two Technincian over that hooked me up. They said I did it right I just needed to adjust some settings.
