An excellent choice

 

I started a quest to replace my old Harman Kardon AVR120 a few weeks ago and after reading several reviews from many different sites and looking at the Owner's Manual of many Receivers I decided to go for the Yamaha Receivers. After comparing them, the...

Static in Speakers

 

It attempts to do what it's designed to do

No matter what I do I'm still getting quite a bit of static/crackling in the front left speaker only (Polk Monitor 70 - II). It doesn't matter which speaker/cable combination I use. I even bought one of Monster's power surge/clean power strips which...

Good audio, missing features

 

I'll keep this pretty short. Researching for new recievers this one really caught my eye and with a list of TONS of features it seemed to be the best choice. However right off the bat it's missing something I didn't even think to look for because I...

RX-A820 Excellent Quality

 

Over the past 20 years this is only the third receiver to be featured in my home theater. The reason why I picked Yamaha, is that the prior two receivers were also made by Yamaha. It seems that the high quality tradition has continued with this model....

Even Old Movies are New Again

 

My very first receiver many years ago was a Yamaha RX-V592. The sound was fantastic then, and with my Onkyo TX-SR806 deciding to go senile at the four-year mark, I came back to Yamaha, replacing it with this RX-A820. I'm pleased to tell you that the...
