  • Great features and impressive quality for the price!
Style: R-S202BL Configuration: receiver only
Got this for my classroom. Not an audiophile by any means and certainly didn't need the latest greatest features (along with accompanying higher cost). For what I paid, $150 on Amazon before sales tax, I'm very impressed with what it offers and can do. Installed it in my classroom today. Connected it to a pair of old Sony bookshelf speakers which I got around 10 years ago. Specifically got this receiver because the old Onkyo I previously used (still working even though it must be from 1980s or 1990s) was unable to handle audio input from my classroom desktop computer even though I had gotten an adapter cable that had a 3.5mm jack on one end and two RCA (red/white) plugs on the other end. Wanted to use the bookshelf speakers instead of the weak external speakers provided by school for whenever I would need audio during a lesson, video clips, etc. to be heard by students at the back of the classroom. After setting up this receiver and putting it through its paces, I am pleased with its overall performance. I connected my classroom's desktop computer to the receiver using that adapter cable previously mentioned and this receiver had no problems at all picking up the signal and transmitting it to my bookshelf speakers. Tried out the radio tuner and was pleasantly surprised by both how clear the sound quality is for many local stations (compared to the Onkyo I had previously been using) and for even decoding signals from distant stations (I'm using a spare cheap external FM radio antenna, not the wire antenna provided with this unit) which the previous Onkyo receiver (and even my car radio) can't pick up clearly if at all. The Bluetooth feature is nice. There's a cheaper version of this receiver without the Bluetooth feature but I decided that the extra $20 was worth it for providing additional possibilities. Had no problem pairing this receiver with my Nexus 6 smartphone. No problems streaming music from my smartphone to the receiver. So far, I've only encountered one problem. I thought about docking one star off for this problem but in the end decided not to do so because the overall functionality and performance of the receiver isn't significantly impaired by this issue. When I first powered up this receiver (after making all the necessary audio connections to speakers and computer), I thought I might have had a defective unit because I couldn't hear anything even though the volume was clearly set at 40 (out of a 0-99 scale). After some trial and error, what I discovered was that any setting below 45 is practically impossible to hear coming out of my speakers. Once I cranked up the volume to 50-55, sound was clearly discernible to anyone near the speakers. From 55-65, sound fills up my entire classroom nicely. From 65-75, it gets loud in my classroom and when I walked out into the hallway (and then continued walking down the hallway) I could hear the sound clearly from several classrooms away. I can only imagine how loud it might be (and how far the sound may travel) if I cranked up the volume beyond 75. So, for all intents and practical purposes, the sound on this unit works but I'm essentially navigating between 45 (quiet) and 80 (really loud) instead of the full range of 0-99. Like I said, functionality and performance doesn't seem to be impaired by this discrepancy, so I ultimately decided not to knock off a star. Not sure if this issue is particular to the specific unit I received or a recurring pattern in more units beyond mine. Not a deal-breaker and not worth going through the hassle of a merchandise exchange since it gets the job done. Looking forward to seeing how well this unit works out for this coming school year (and hopefully for many years beyond). If anything should arise to warrant editing this review, then I'll update as needed. ... show more

  • Does exactly what I wanted, sounds perfect for the price.
Style: R-S202BL Configuration: receiver only
The media could not be loaded. I'm kind of an audiophile, really picky. I got this while on sale for $150 and I am really surprised with how good it sounds, it doesn't compare to the Niko amp I was using in the barn, but it powers my KX12 speakers really well, shakes the walls of the barn. I'll be taking those speakers inside for the winter along with the Niko amp and be using the YAMAHA NS-6490 speakers I bought at the same time as this. I'll be reviewing those speakers soon, they also surprised me. The bluetooth connected easily. I had to use a 3.5mm Aux to 2 RCA Adapter Audio Cable to connect my laptop to it. Some stereos come with a 3.5mm input, this doesn't, but neither did my Niko Beta 30 preamp, so no big deal, the adapter was less than $8. The tuner is really good, I have this in my pole barn that is all metal, including the roof and 18 miles out of town yet it picks up several stations with the supplied antenna, my portable stereo doesn't pick up anything when in the barn. The specs say it plays 10 Hz – 100 kHz, that seams a little much, the best ears can hear is up to 20kHz, and nothing you connect to it will go higher than 30 kHz, so why would this play up to 100? I use an equalizer to shape the sound and it does play to my satisfaction for the price, both sound quality and volume. For the $150 I spent, this is a really good deal. ... show more

  • Impressive Theater receiver
Style: R-S202BL Configuration: receiver only
The audio is so good. I hooked up 6 speakers to it even though 4 is recommended and I have to say the clarity is amazing. The tuning of my sound is easy because it comes with a remote. Movies sound awesome! The bass and treble sound mix’s well. I don’t notice any lags in the audio, so that’s good for me. Ease of installation was easier than previous receivers. I recommend this theater receiver. (Yes!) ... show more

  • Solid Receiver
Style: R-S202BL Configuration: receiver only
I used this receiver as the brain of an outdoor/patio sound system I built for my friend as a wedding present. It performs very well. The bluetooth works like a BOSS. We have tested in all corners of the yard with no signal loss. I might also mention that the receiver is housed inside the garage just off the yard. I was very impressed by this. The remote works wonderfully and allows you to access all of the features very easily while also being very user friendly. I bought this along with the 4 speaker package from VM Audio. The sound is very clear. Time will tell how long it lasts. Though I have only ever had one amp go out on me, I know this thing is going to be getting a ton of usage. My only complaint is the power generated by this amp. The sound is crystal clear; however I expected more volume. I realize this is only a 100w amp, but ran this beside a 100w Technics receiver I bought back in 96 and the Technics just pushes a full beefy sound exceeding that of the Yamaha. The features of this amp win out but I wish it had a little more oomf, ya know? I could've probably solved that by purchasing a stronger amp, but this was for a friend. Although I will obsess over this my friend is very happy with its performance. ... show more
