Yamaha RX-V659 review

intro The Yamaha RX-V659, the company's midrange $550 receiver, delivers a lot of bang for the buck. It's not only XM Satellite Radio ready, the upstart Yamaha boasts built-in compatibility with XM's latest surround-sound stations. It also offers...

The Yamaha RX-V659 is a well-equipped midrange 7.1-channel receiver. In addition to being one of the first XM-ready products to offer compatibility with XM HD Surround, the RX-V659 is distinguished by an optional iPod dock, an easy-to-use autosetup,...

The XM HD Surround didn't produce a significant performance advantage over Dolby or DTS Surround. There are no HDMI inputs or outputs, and the XM and iPod features require purchasing additional accessories.

As long you don't need HDMI compatibility, the Yamaha RX-V659 A/V receiver offers good sound quality, a full panoply of features, and a solid value.

Yamaha RX-V559DAB

This will appeal to radio enthusiasts who want the greater choice, information services, sound quality and stability provided by digital broadcasts. However, the 6.1 design sacrifices an additional centre rear channel that's used to improve the...

DAB radio; iPod integration; numerous surround modes; dynamic and expansive sound

Yamaha RX-V559DAB

The Yamaha RX-V559DAB is one of the first surround receivers to incorporate a DAB tuner alongside built-in FM and AM tuners. The Digital ToP-ART specification means that the RX-V559DAB incorporates some of the brand's top-draw electronics.
