Reviews around zone (5.00 of 5)

  • and I still can't get the "Zone 2" speakers to work like they did on my 10 year old Onyko
  • Love the 2 zones and that everyone can link the backyard zone to their phones

Reviews around quality (4.42 of 5)

  • The only reason it got 2 stars is because the sound quality is decent.
  • Great Quality receiver produces some very good sound and has lots of additional features to enhance our listening experiences.
  • However, I firmly believe that sound is equal to and sometimes surpasses image quality in importance
  • Only thing is the auto volume feature didn’t work as well as
  • Sound with excellent quality, multiple functions that fully meet expectations

Reviews around work (3.61 of 5)

  • We upgraded from a 20 year old model which is still working just fine, it was just couldn’t handle more speakers
  • While this does work, and once again setup was pretty easy, the lip sync is terrible
  • Good work, Yamaha.
  • The auto setup was crazy easy and the external microphone worked great setting up the sound dynamics (worked much better than on my older Yamaha receiver where I found it better to adjust each of the speakers manually/separately).

Reviews around app (3.44 of 5)

  • and I love the app on my phone that can turn it on and stream Pandora (or etc) without even turning on my TV.
  • There are 2 modes, party mode will play anything your receiver is playing on zone 2, which is great to listen to youtube on the backyard, OR you can isten to the tv on zone1 and zone2 can play network music like pandora or SiriusxmThe yamaha apps to control the receiver are top notch
  • You have to use the MusicCast app to use it with Alexa and the app is ridiculous

  • Only thing is the auto volume feature didn’t work as well as

  • I am sure the thing would be fine if it worked, but who has the time to mess with it
