I read a ton of reviews on Yamaha receivers and the speakers I am using, and to me, many people downplayed how powerful that combo is. I live in an apartment and my neighbors must hate me now. The receiver is quite easy to setup and use, and believe it or not hasn't produced a lot of heat as I have it in my enclosed entertainment center but I do leave the sliding glass door open just in...

The setup was simple (apple tv, HD tv, Blue Ray, Direct tv, network, wii, 5.1 surround). I particularly like the use of the yamaha remote for controlling the peripherals. The integration with my iPhone is awesome! |
