Video upconversion to 1080p, binding posts for all speaker connections, a more powerful amplifier system, high definition HDMI audio support and a powerful Zone 2 system make the Yamaha RX-V765 a very compelling upgrade for your home theater. We've...

The upgraded display screen and scene controls make day-to-day usage far easier and more enjoyable. •The addition of a front-mounted aux jack is welcome for those with iPods or portable music devices. When coupled with Yamaha's Compressed Music...

While four HDMI inputs are pretty much standard these days, I can't help but think a fifth or even a sixth would be beneficial, given the RX-V765's focus on current HD technologies ; I don't like how Yamaha has packed so many goodies into the RX-V765...

It's amazing to think that, over a year ago, a receiver packing as much performance as the RX-V765 would've cost you near two grand, if not more. Here we are approaching the fall of 2009, and that same receiver is now $650. That, my friends, is...

Surround processing ; immersive sound ; even tonal balance

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

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

The automatic configuration tool that comes with this receiver is amazing. You won't understand what you were missing until you run it. I'm getting ready to replace my rears, center and sub-woofer and can't wait to see what this receiver can deliver...

Consult the manual. You're missing out if you just plug everything in and turn it on. It takes time, but is so worth it

Since the new models have been rolling in the price has been dropping for an amazing deal ; For a beginner audiophile this is a great entry level amp, beefier power supplier over the 665 and decent amount of inputs for connecting up equipment ; Setup...

None at this moment

Good build quality, great sound quality, and decently simple configuration procedure ; The YPAO auto setup does pretty well for a baseline setup, and sounds great after just a little tweaking (mainly pulling the sub levels up substantially). Sounds...

Manual isn't the greatest, and the remote is old school. It isn't a learning remote, but one that needs to be programmed using codes ; Biggest issue though is the HDMI implementation. I don't know if it is a switching issue, or HDCP handshake issue,...

The price/quality ratio is high; a moderately strong receiver with lots of room for growth. Although it did not come with the Blue Tooth adapters, you can add it on aftermarket to stream off other electronic such as your phone. Sirius ready, can dock...

It could be my lack of understanding on set up for adding in other components, but I have to set the speakers to sysnthesize surround sound when watching movies using a USB drive from my DVD player. That may be due to the sound track limitations and...

Nice variety and plenty of video inputs (NO SVIDEO). There's also a composite video jack on the front but strangely no HDMI ; Video up conversion of composite and component video to 1080p. This can be quite finicky and funky though; I'll explain later...

No Svideo input. This doesn't sound like much but if you're an avid video game collector or like to have a variety of electronics both old and new then the lack of a Svideo jack is going to hurt ; Poor video up conversion; really disappointing. I have...

tons of connection options that will work for anyone and any tv/dvd player

non so far
