    First AVR. I bought this based on specifications. There are a lot of settings. I would have appreciated a better guide or documentation in how to optimize the settings, or a user interface that would explain what each function does. Getting a Roku to display thru AVR to my projector is sometimes difficult. Eventually the screen lights up. The music cast app has been fun for listening to music from Amazon. Pretty cool I can turn on from another room but it’s a lot of clicks to select another genre, station, artist, song, etc. But it sends power to the speakers just like it says it will.

    Good receiver but don't have the firmware update done. What I liked is my previous receiver was a Yamaha and all harmony remote works the same on the new one. Sounds very good and especially like the center channel how clear it is. Good surround too.

    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.

    Good A/V receiver but needs a lot of manual tuning

    Good modern update for our home theater system. Was easy to set up and while it now sounds great, there were a few things to work through in the setup: 1. I used the included microphone to automatically configure the audio settings and this didn't work well at all. Sounded terrible frankly- front channel was completely muffled, couldn't hear dialogue and the sides and rear channels had almost zero audio coming through them. 2. So I had to go in and manually adjust all of the audio settings to get the home theater sounding right.

    User interface could be much better but it does produce really good sound once everything is set. There is a definite learning curve so you will have to be patient and do a lot of reading. Once everything is set the surround sound is awesome.

    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.

    Very solid receiver. I prefer the menu system from my old pioneer elite. Settings are a little harder to navigate but I'm sure I will learn soon enough. As far as power goes it powers my speakers great. I do notice a better sound from my speakers but I still need to tweek some settings still. Definate must have for new gen gaming.

    Man o man. This amp blows the doors off the other competitors. I’ve had the Sony for three years and it finally quit working. This Yamaha nails it. It blew the cobwebs out of my Polks. My Yamaha subwoofers came to life. It’s as if all my speakers were dormant for the past year. I have the 7.2 setup and 8k television. The television itself has changed thanks to the 8k HDMI cable. If you don’t have the 2.1 cable I would advise getting one in order to take advantage of the new technology coming from Yamaha. I recommend this amplifier to everyone looking for the latest technology. Go Yamaha!!! Well done!
