 Low Price for a Best Quality. |

| Because of the low price, I did not think much quality in the product as I am seeing. This is a high quality product, at least in my house I have gotten great results, and with 17 dsp programs to get better audio experience. |

| I purchased this receiver for the pre-outs, HDMI switching and the relatively cheap price, I think I paid $289. It works even better than I had hoped as far as passing the HDMI signal straihgt to the TV speakers when the receiver is not turned on, a feature that works great if you have someone who also uses the TV, video, Wii etc and don't ever learn how to make things work. In this case, my wife did not even know we had a receiver. I have not used the amplifier in this receiver, just a old 5 channel amp connected to the pre-outs. It has surpassed my expectations. |
Wow saved $162.22 and shipping was free !

I needed a second receiver for my kids tv and I didn't want to spend a ton of cash. I found the Yamaha RXV665 at Electronics Expo and saved $162.22 and the shipping was free! My needs were for a good 7 channel receiver for movies and their game system and I really didn't want to get a cheap receiver that would die in less then a year. The 665 may not be as good as my Pioneer Elite but it is a well built and for $317.72 shipped it does a far job.
I'm using a old pair of JBL speakers with a Velodyne VX10 Subwoofer and it does a good job on movies and the video games sound great. The coupon I used at checkout was WS901X5750(it's kind of crazy, to see the discount you have to go all the way to the end of the check out to see the discount). If your looking for a solid receiver at a great price check out Electronics Expo and take a look at the RXV665 and don't forget to use the coupon! |
Great sound, awkward configuration

So, overall I'm really happy with this receiver - it does just about everything they promised it would, and it sounds spectacular combined with the Polk speakers I bought to go with it.
But....
One of the reasons I bought it was the promise that I could seamlessly connect all my video devices and it would convert them all to HDMI - so that I wouldn't have to set the TV and the amp whenever I wanted to watch something. This turned out to work well for my HDMI cable box and PS3, and for my component output DVD player - but it took most of an afternoon to figure out how to get both a picture AND sound for my daughter's Nintendo Wii. It seems that because of the way the inputs were designed, the picture was on source "AV1" but the sound was on "AUDIO 1".
Eventually, I found a loose piece of paper in the box the amp was shipped in telling me that I could use the on-screen set up interface to map the video output from "AV1" to the "AUDIO 1" mode, so now, when my daughter wants to play Wii, she pushes the "AUDIO 1" button....
Again, overall the amp is great, but the setup can get convoluted if you want to use it with non-HDMI gear. |
