Yamaha RX-V765

A very talented amp that's just lacks some sonic polish

Surround processing ; immersive sound ; even tonal balance

Input assignment issues ; lacks the dynamic brilliance of the best at the price

YAMAHA 7.1-Channel Home Theater Receiver RX-V565

By subpar Av guy (newegg.com)

Very good deal for the price since I got a free set of 5.1 surround speakers when I made my purchase. If it weren't for that, I would have purchased locally for the same price out of convenience.

Does video upscaling, which allows you to input multiple video sources and have a single HDMI out to hook up to the TV. The 4 scene buttons make it easy for the kids and wife to easily select what they want to do. I have a DVD player, PC and DVR hooked up...

Had to update the firmware to get the Wii to work. Doing so will allow you select a different audio source to go with the 2 composite video in sources since the options they provide are pretty stupid. Most devices with composite video out will use RCA aud...

Died after 3 days

By Josh (newegg.com)

Loved the HDMI audio decoding and the ability to decode HD audio. 4 in/ 1 out is awesome. Really is feature packed for the price I payed for it, $250

I had read stories about Yamaha's quality problems, but the price was too good to pass up. Maybe it was too good to be true. All outputs quit after 3 days. 3 DAYS? Wow. In for service, gotta wait 4 weeks now to get it back

If you get this, upgrade it to the latest firmware right away! I'm only at the previous (MAY 2009) firmware but I just read the features of the AUGUST 2009 version which includes far more reassignment ability. I really needed this so that I could finish m...

1. First and foremost, good sound! Really beats the tar out of the cheapo television speakers I was using before ; 2. AWESOME deinterlacing! Again, really beats the tar out of the deinterlacer in my TV for 480i sources ; 3. Upgradable! The last few update...

1. 1080p upconverting not the best. It's not terrible, though, not nearly worth an egg. I just let my TV upconvert from the excellent 480p deinterlaced signal this provides ; 2. Upgrading the firmware will be a pain for people that don't have SPDIF connec...
