High end quality at a low price! |
|
I purchased this unit back in July and have had nothing but great quality sound coming out of this receiver. I used to have a Harmon Kardon receiver and this Yamaha receiver blows it away. I immediately noticed louder and clearer sound quality. The only negative was the instructions for hooking this unit up. It took a good 2-3 hours to get everything working. Instruction manual poorly written like most are. I recently hooked up my satellite receiver using HDMI cables which works great. I also hooked my ipod up using a purchased adapter which also work great. I highly recommend this receiver to anyone looking for a high quality receiver at a low price. |

incredible sound |
|
This reciever has lived up to everything I expected, ease of connections and sound quality is fantastic. The only draw back I have found is when I do an auto setup the Sub Woofer Does not kick in with the Music channels. I had to manualy go into the program and change several settings. Other than that POW! sounds great and works well with my system. |

Great sound |
I remember when I would have stayed up all night, if necessary, to install a new piece of audio equipment. Well, it's hooked up for TV and cd/dvd but not yet for radio and tape decks. I had some friends over the day after I installed it and we watched several hours of concerts on dvd. Their response was unanimous: FABULOUS! And that's without a subwoofer. Front pair of speakers are Klipsch F-3 towers. Center and rear are cheap set of Sony's.
Sometimes the receiver has a mind of its own. I restarted a movie we had just watched and it played with commentary. It would not let me change it back to no commentary. This has never happened prior. I think it may be a compatability issue.
TV picture looks better but I have to adjust the aspect ratio and the "video status"(color variants) every time I watch something. It doesn't really bother me but for someone who does not want to fiddle with the controls to get the optimal picture, it will be a hassle. |

Very Happy |

Just hooked this up over the weekend. A little tricky to set it up but the sound and features from this unit are great. I doubt there is a better receiver out there for $400. If you don't like to read the users manual, buy a simple receiver with less features. |
