Listened to several receivers: Pioneer Elite VSX-LX501, Denon AVR-X4300H and Marantz XR-6011. High resolution music sounded more clean, natural and dynamic on this Yamaha RX-A1060 receiver. Never owned a Yamaha receiver before and so I was very impressed and pleased with this model. I have a large collection of MP3's and this receiver not only improves their sound but it works flawlessly with all my Apple devices. My collection of CD's and SACD's also sound phenomenal through this receiver as well too. The RX-A1060 was an excellent match for my Bowers & Wilkins speakers so this played a major role in my decision to purchasing the Yamaha. Home theater playback in my 4K UHD TV and 4K UHD Blu-Ray player is truly an unbelievable and most immersive experience and this Yamaha RX-A1060 performs flawlessly. The 2 subwoofer outputs plus the Center Channel pre-out are fantastic because I use 2 ground shaking powered subwoofers plus a large Center Channel with an active powered subwoofer in my home theater. Setup is very easy and the GUI is very user friendly. MusicCast works great on my various Apple devices. Very easy to browse and play high resolution music through USB and my network server. This receiver offers multiple DSP surround sound decoders, multi-room playback, built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. It does everything I need it to do and it does it flawlessly. Very happy with its performance and price range compared to other comparably equipped receivers.

I had previously owned the RX-A1030 model. I replaced it with this new RX-A1060 model in order to get full 4K @ 60 frames, HDR, and HDCP 2.2 compliant. This new receiver also upgraded to built in wifi, and Bluetooth etc. This new model sounds stronger and crisper then the older model. I love the simplicity of these Yamaha Aventage receivers! The on screen menus and setup are awesome. This receiver sounds fanstastic, and clear, and dolby atmos and dts-x is a huge bonus. I don't think there is a better receiver on the market for the money, with as many bells and whistles, and with this quality of sound and video. Its a 5 star receiver for sure!

My Yamaha RX-A1060 is only a month or so old but that is long enough to confidently state that it is an excellent receiver and it is far superior to two Dennon receivers I had prior to this purchase. However, I am on my second RX-A1060 because the radio electronics malfunctioned on my first unit and the new replacement did not have a YPAO microphone with it. Best Buy is obtaining a new microphone. Otherwise, the RX-A1060 is in all ways a beautifully functioning receiver.
