Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage Receiver Video Review

AV receivers are constantly changing, constantly leap-frogging one another in features and capabilities. This year Yamaha announced its Aventage line and, in the process, jumped over a lot of the competition. And not a little jump, more like an Olympic...

Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage 11.2 Networking A/V Receiver Review

If you're ready for the future, the Yamaha Aventage RX-A3000 is ready to take you there. It has proven itself to be a worthy and most importantly less costly successor to the venerable RX-Z7.

Tons of configurability options ; HDMI standby pass-through (can change inputs) ; Dual configurable subwoofer outputs ; Supports full 11.2 home theater use ; iPad and iPhone app controllable

Over abundant configurable options can be confusing ; Not compatible with MusicCast Gen 1 ; Bulky and poorly designed remote control

Yamaha RX-A3000 Aventage Receiver Review

The Yamaha RX-A3000 flagship A/V receiver unlocks a limitless amount of options. We're talking a massive amount of configurability, and the new GUI makes it easier than ever to set up.

Yamaha RX-A3000 AV Receiver

Aventage - it means “AV entertainment for the new age”, we’re told. Yamaha’s RX-A3000 certainly delivers on that promise.

Excellent in every way

Replaced a Sony STR-DG810 and I can't believe I used that receiver as long as I did. I don't know if I'll have to buy a new one in the next decade. It does everything I wanted and more.

Worth every penny, especially when you can get it for under a G on a special. I'm still not using it to it's full potential, but a family will slow down that sort of progress

Made be buy new speakers

STUD

Had this cranked LOUD for 4 hours during a college house party playing music videos. No problems. Everyone thought they were seriously at the club! I would highly recommend this AV Receiver for a long-term solution to any mid to high end Home Theater...

Has enough power to crank all 7 of me floor standing speakers. Everything about it exudes quality. Solid build and parts. Even the remote weighs a ton! Pandora radio is sweet (after easy firmware update) and easy to add and remove stations. Music...

No iTunes Air Play. Since Pandora is added via update there is no direct button on the remote so you must scroll the the menu every time to select it. Remote is great for setup but I wouldn't recommend as a universal for your whole setup. Use a Harmony...

Complex but...WOW!!!

Best receiver I have EVER owned! My sound spectrum widened 3 fold! My Klipsch Synergy speakers never sounded better! Sound is pure and crystal clear! Cranked it up and haven't noticed ANY distortion! 2 HDMI outputs! Inputs out the wazoo! HDradio is...

Setup is easy, but you will have to dig around to find specific settings to tweak. AVSForum helped a lot! It will take you a long time to really get to KNOW this receiver, but initial setup is pretty straight forward. Fine tuning the settings takes a...
