    Not like yamaha of old. Small display that I can't see after 3 feet away. Had lots of troubles, too many to talk about. Had to return.

    This was listed as “open box” even though it was sealed in the original box with all its contents appearing untouched. Anyways I hooked everything up and it sounded awesome and functioned as it should. A day or 2 later I was getting video but no audio. So I unplugged it for a few and restarted then it was fine. The next day, same problem. Then it happened a 3rd time and I couldn’t fix it. There was an issue with the Audio Return Channel on the unit because I ruled out every other problem via troubleshooting. I had no choice but to return the unit.

    I have owned this for 17 days. Product keeps cutting off. I paid 865+ for such a garbage product. I can’t return it since it’s been more than 15 days. I owned an onkyo prior. Now I’ll have to spend 1k + 865 I paid for. Like take this nonsense off the market PLEASE

    It took a while to get used to the options that Yamaha uses, but it is a definite upgrade over my 5 year old Sony. The dvp is much better and the sound separation is great.

    I'm still figuring out all of the intricacies of the Yamaha RX-V6A reciever. The center channel speaker I use sounds a little bit off. But otherwise it is a great product. I've just got to do some fine tuning to get the best performance. I would definitely recommend the Yamaha RX-V6A.

    We have one more step, as the DVD and CD of our old system is antique and we had to upgrade. The new receiver supports our household system effectively and assuming our upgrade works as well, we are thrilled.

    This receiver was marketed towards gamers due to the 3 HDMI 2.1 ports. To date, no HDMI 2.1 features have been enabled by firmware updates. Yamaha's HDMI chips are faulty just like Denon, so Yamaha announces a fix will be "announced" in the summer which is probably a board swap to be performed in the fall. So I have to wait a whole year to get the features that I paid for plus send my unit back for the board to be replaced which should take forever like everything else has for the last 1.5 years. Yamaha should be offering refunds at this point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It's ok. Right now we have it in a closet and we have to go in to turn it on or off which I do not like.
