Our verdict

A straightforward entry receiver for a first five speaker home theater with an ultra high definition TV. It lacks Wi-Fi streaming and Atmos in the listing, so music arrives over Bluetooth only.

Overview

Yamaha builds this receiver around a discrete five channel amplifier and YPAO calibration, which uses the included microphone to tune the speakers to the room. HDMI passes HDR video to the TV, and Bluetooth plays music from a phone.

Simple setup and room calibration suit a first surround system on a modest scale. Network streaming and height formats are not listed, which limits it for music lovers and Atmos fans.

Who it's for

Newcomers to surround sound with a modest room get easy calibration and HDR pass-through. Households that stream music over Wi-Fi or want height speakers need a more advanced model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Automatic YPAO room calibration
  • HDR and BT.2020 pass-through
  • Four HDMI inputs
  • Calibration mic and antenna included
Cons
  • No Wi-Fi streaming listed
  • No Atmos listed
  • Five channels only
  • Older HDCP version

Performance notes

Speaker balance comes from YPAO, which measures each speaker through the included mic and sets levels and distances. Dynamic power rises into lower impedance loads, though most speakers sit at the higher impedance figures. Video passes through untouched, so picture quality depends on the source and TV.
