Customer Ratings & Reviews

Yamaha - RX-V6A 7.2-channel AV Receiver with 8K HDMI and MusicCast . Fantastic Receiver. This receiver greatly improved my picture on my big screen and sound to my surround sound. Very easy to set up. Customer representative at store in Northridge did a great job listening to my needs and making a great recommendation

This A/V receiver could be the market's best value-for-money pick, offering excellent sound quality and robust power. However, it's not without flaws. The user interface feels outdated, and it's not the most intuitive—this could be a letdown for users expecting a modern touch. Additionally, the HDMI bandwidth is limited to 24 Gbps, which may concern those wanting to connect more advanced gaming systems like a PS5 or a PC with an RTX4090. This limitation could be a significant compromise for enthusiasts seeking to push their equipment to the limits. Despite these issues, for those prioritizing sound quality and power on a budget, this receiver remains a strong contender.

Bought this open box on sale, works pretty well and it sounds great, Yamaha has some issues with these receivers but so far none with mine. It could use more power but that's to be expected in this price range.

I previously owned a Pioneer Elite, and this receiver is just as good as the previous one. Music is a 10/10, and movies are "excellent."

This unit replaced a much higher priced high end Marantz home theatre receiver and, suprizingly, out performs it in every way. Surround sound is best described as 3D like and the bass is defintely more robust and refined. Highly recommended as a top buy.

If you want this receiver to take advantage of everything hdmi 2.1 can do. Just keep moving along. In fairness Yamaha has said they will take care of the faulty hdmi 2.1 issue. But I don’t want to keep this product waiting for them to fix it. Hence why I gave it 3 stars. The receiver looks great and is easy to set up. I couldn’t even get a Xbox series x to display properly with the settings at 4k 60 and switch inputs properly. If this worked it would have been a great value and everything I needed. I was optimistic but it just didn’t deliver.

Good looks. Great sound. Easy to set up and switch between sources. GUI could be a bit better. Don't worry about a small display; between that and the TV screen, you can see all you need to see. I bought this after my Onkyo TX-NR686 stopped working, and this sounds better to me. If you don't want to spend $1,500 or more for a good sounding AVR, can't go wrong here.

The price was a little high in my opinion for this receiver. I set it up correctly several issues one you have to put it in party mode to get stereo sound or a fuller sound . When I would turn the TV on the system would go on automatically for me. I enjoy that the problem was the receiver would go full volume. It would be screaming at you with whatever was going on TV did not like that at all. When the volume was set where I liked it, it was a crisp sound as long as it was in party mode I did not like having to always push buttons to make this thing work at $800. It should be a little bit more plug-in play I can get a wireless surround sound system sound bar for 300 that does a better job

Massive improvement over my previous receiver. Went with this product due to Yamaha’s reputation and it seemed pretty ‘future proof’. Awesome design and features. Tons of potential, the sound is so, so good!!! You will not be disappointed with this unit at all.

I bought this reciever because of it's 4k@120hz option that will come in a future upgrade. Since my LG C1 TV is 4k@120 hz I figured I'd future proof my purchase. The features are easy to use and the sound quality is AMAZING! This reciever is made in Malaysia. I've learned over the years that this is the country you want to buy electronics from. Japan's quality is inferior. This reciever is very hard to find in stock at Bestbuy. If you can get your hands on one DO IT you wont regret it!

!st off, you need to get to know how to use a unit like this. Set up is not that hard. just takes a little time to do it right. The unit needs to be played for at least 2-3 hours before you really start to tweek the EQ, surround sounds, ect. Need to let it warm up and settle a little. After that I then began to set my sound the way I wanted it. It can be a little bright at first that is why you need to warm up and then set it like you want. I am running Thiel CS-2 for the front, B&W sub, JBL center, Older Radio Shack for the rear. Sound is clear from my Roku.(XM I Heart,ect). Films that have a lot of action boom and sizzle. Again it is how you set it up. Records? I run a Little Bear tube pre-amp and they sound plenty good. You really can't go wrong with this unit. It depends what you are looking for.

Item was an easy set up with excellent sound. Meets all my expectations. Has a very user friendly interface. Multiple zones for different room listening. The designs is simple and effective.

Sound from this thing is great. Setup was extremely easy and integrated into existing system seamlessly and allowed me to do away with some of the many remotes littering my coffee table once setup was done

The sound quality is excellent. Connectivity and ease of use are first rate.

It’s been over 30 days and this Yamaha Receiver doesn’t stop amazing me with its features and quality. I absolutely love this thing more every time I cut it on

Got this as a geek squad open box. Great value. I like the versatility with zone 2 speaker setup and musicast app. Setup (software) can be confusing, but it eventually “works”. Overall, pleased with the product and Best Buy.

Easy Set up, sounds great.. Only gripe is there are not any inputs listed on the remote for DVD, Game, Cable etc. You have to scroll thru the input selector until the divice you want comes up on-screen

I've worked with all the receiver brands but Yamaha has more extensive control settings and features than all the others. Plus they've been very reliable over the years. Can't go wrong with them.

Fantastic receiver. Great sound, plenty of power, and tons of features.

Our old Yamaha was dying and we did not realize how much sound and function we had lost. With the new one OMG ! The sound is awesome. Set up was a breeze. We are ecstatic!
