    It’s been over 40+ years since I bought any stereo equipment. This Yamaha receiver is perfect for my needs. The Bluetooth is excellent. It’s easy to operate and definitely easier to connect my equipment. The HDMI inputs made that happen. I can operate different speakers in two rooms. I’m glad I bought it. Plus, the price is reasonable for a good piece of equipment.

    I'm still figuring out the feature set, since Thanksgiving was a break after just attaching it to my current system. The downloaded user guide is more helpful than the quickstart guide, especially with a variety of devices attached to my old receiver.

    Replaced my 10+ year old receiver and upgraded to this one. Easy setup and install as I have done previous ones myself. Owned it for a few weeks and sounds great.

    This receiver is awesome. For the price and features how can you go wrong. Perfect for future proofing for a while. Had to return it bcuz the HDMI 2.1 features are coming with a further update. They’ve been saying this for a while now. Waiting for the update so I can rebuy

    Core of my MusicCast streaming audio system

    I use it as the core unit of a whole-house MusicCast streaming audio system, with two satellite units and speakers in five rooms. My entire house is one connected audio system, including the 5.1 system for my TV. While there are some occasional hick-ups with linking the units, the system is overall stable and with great audio quality, way above Sonos. Highly recommended.

    Excellent budget 7.2 Dolby Atmos receiver with many features of more expensive models. Some features will be available in future firmware updates. Also, HDMI switching is a bit buggy (which should also be addressed in future firmware updates). So, not completely baked yet but still a great sounding receiver with many features beyond its price point.

    Was kinda buggy at first but I bought it right when it was released and most of that has been fixed through firmware. I use it to a projector though so my setup is simple. I dunno if they fixed the 4k 120 yet but that's no big deal to me as of right now. Sound quality is really good but doesn't go super loud. I upgraded from a basic 2007 onkyo reciever so it was a huge upgrade for me.

    I bought the Yamaha RXV6A to replace a 10 year old Sony receiver. The Yamaha was a step up and after a few attempts to set it up, I finally got it working correctly. The sound is clear and dynamic. I love the bluetooth and the ability to use it as a transmitter to send output to my bluetooth speakers on my patio.

    My old receiver finally kicked the bucket so figured we'd upgrade to 7.2. The instructions are a little too vague and you can't update all the settings from the app. In order to see all the settings, you have to connect the HDMI output to the TV. Would have been nice to know that in the instructions. Produces great sound and the internet capabilities are really neat. I can control the unit from my phone.

    This has been the most frustrating piece of electronic equipment I have ever owned. Its primary problem is that it requires a hard reset via holding the power button down for 10 seconds EVERY SINGLE TIME I want to watch TV. When I turn it on via the remote, it does not send anything to the TV before doing this hard reset. In addition, it randomly turns itself off in the middle of a TV show, movie or game. If I could return it for a refund I would. This is the last piece of yamaha electronics I will ever buy.
