    Flat sounding, decided to keep my old Pioneer despite all the bells and whistles of the new receiver.

    I really wanted to like this receiver. Ascetically it’s beautiful. And when it’s working everything works great. But I run into issues every day when trying to switch between my series x and Apple TV4K. And today my hdmi out quit working. Best Buy doesn’t have anything in stock to do an exchange. Waited an hour on hold with Yamaha to figure out I have to wait 3-5 business days for a box to send my receiver back (another 3-5 days) then wait who knows how long to get my receiver back. Considering returning it.

    Doesnt work right out of the box. Yamaha knows there is an issue with the hdmi on this receiver and yet they continue to see it. New projector,new devices....When you add additional hdmi devices it goes to no signal, now the thing gives no signal with just the main hdmi. SHAME ON YAMAHA

    Twice with 2 different receivers, they shut themselves off and can't be turned back on. Should have a reset switch that allows you to power the unit back on instead of having to send it out for repair.

    Waiting to have them installed. The Best Buy Total Tech is a complete waste. Too many hoops to jump through and terrible customer service attempting to have them install this per the agreement.

    Avoid if you want 4K 120fps

    1 year later and still no HDMI 2.1 bug fix. If you have a next gen console and want 4K 120fps avoid this AVR until Yamaha fixes the hardware. Yes not software - hardware. The functionality was originally promised to come via a future software update. However, Yamaha came forward and announced that it will now take a hardware upgrade to achieve 4K 120fps. The upgrade program was announced to start the fall of 2021. Its 11/11/21 and I still haven’t received the invite to mail in this AVR to get it fixed/upgraded.
