  • Can't ask for more from a 7.1 or 5.1.2 receiver
My previous Yamaha receiver was 10 ys old, and was an entry level 5.1 model (RX-V373). I accidentally fried it by putting my phone's USB connector in. I have been wanting to upgrade for a while the last few yrs but waited it out until receivers have 8k pass through (so whenever 8k becomes more of a thing I can keep this new one a bit longer). The 3773 had 4k pass through when I got it 10 yrs ago, well before 4k became as available as it is now for example, which was one reason I held out on replacing as long as I did. This time around I decided to step up into the premium Aventage line of Yamaha. It was between this & the A4A, not a huge price difference, but I would have needed to replace my entertainment center since the A4A is too deep to fit. Didn't seem worth it & now I'm really happy with my choice. My living room set up (in a condo) has 2 surrounds, to add 2 more would require building mounts on the wall (couch is against the wall with 2 surrounds on side tables) which I don't want. This has 7 channels to allow for 2 Atmos front firing speakers which I got & love how immersive it sounds. Bi-amping the front towers is an option, but that uses 2 extra channels so the Atmos front speakers can't be connected at the same time as bi-amping. I experimented with biamping & biwiring & couldn't hear any difference so I have the fronts biwired, allowing for the 2 Atmos front connections. New features/improvements from my old receiver include more power/watts, lower THD & better sound, streaming music directly from the receiver with Music Cast, and it processes Atmos & DTS audio. One key feature all the Aventage models have that the RX ones don't is the 5th foot in the middle, which was designed & tested to improve the sound with more stabilization. Aventage also has a 3 yr warranty (vs 2 for RX). The top of the line RX model looks identical in specs which I also considered but it just sounds like this 1st Aventage model is slightly better with it its parts & sound quality, and not that much more. Especially since I got the A2A on sale for 999.95 (vs the 1200 price). I actually bought this for 1150 which was a teeny mark down, and then saw Amazon put it on sale for 999.95 shortly after (about 2 weeks). Amazon customer service was great when I called about that, and they credited the difference. Back to the receiver...2 subwoofers can be connected, and an amplifier for the 2 front speakers can be connected as well through pre outs. Probably more improvements but those are the main ones. Along with this receiver upgrade, I also upgraded my subwoofer & added a Nvidia Shield Pro streamer (due to it handling Atmos & 4k upscaling of lower hd content, which my Roku Ultra cannot do). My system now includes Polk TSI 400 front towers Polk CS20 center, Polk T15 surrounds (all of these Polk speakers are from 10 yrs ago as well & still work great for me, they sound better too with this receiver). I added Klipsch R-41SA Atmos front firing speakers, and upgraded from a Polk PSW505 subwoofer to an SVS SB3000 (night & day difference with that upgrade!). Have a Roku Ultra from a few yrs ago, and the Nvidia as well now. The TV also will be upgraded at some point, but I'm perfectly content with it now (is a 7 yrs old 55 inch 4K Sony Bravia). This receiver also processes Dolby Vision which I'd need a new TV for, as well as eArc which this receiver also has. Over time I will continue adding to my set up. A decent record player is next, and a current blu ray player (the one I have is rather old & only has 1080p). Then a new TV & A 2nd sub (will get another SVS SB3000). The last & most expensive upgrade will be the rest of the speakers. From Polk to B&W most likely, but when I get to this I will compare both at the same price point as I am still very impressed with the quality of my Polks for their price point. I also plan to add an amp (Emotiva most likely) to power the fronts. Another reason I was ok with the A2A watts per channel for now (100 with 2 channels driven for music, unsure what it is at 5.1.2 but it's plenty especially with the thunder the SVS sub provides even at low volumes, and the ability to boost dialogue in addition to the center channel. I'd rather get a dedicated amp for more music power than a higher priced receiver just due to more watts. Very pricey to do all of this at once (in particular the speakers & amp), but for now I am thrilled with how much better everything sounds with these phase 1 upgrades. Highly recommend it, if you are coming from an entry level budget receiver this can pump more life into your current speakers. ... show more

  • Excellent Product, Easy Install
Loved the look of this right out of the box. Only surpassed by how easy it was to set up and operate with the Yamaha MusicCast app. I have two zones (living room and lanai) set up and switching from one to another and connecting with the RX-A4A model I have in our bonus room for party mode is very intuitive. Great for movie theater sound, listening to music, immersive gaming and general tv watching. Highly recommend! ... show more

  • Save your money and wait.
Where do I start with this. I ordered this from Amazon warehouse as it was returned. When I got it it was missing the remote, mic calibration, wifi antennas and manual. No problem as I have a Logitech harmony one. Ever after discounts applied and only paying 650 I can say I wouldn't give 100 for this thing. First the UI is so bad a kid coloring it on paper with crayons would be better. The sound is so bad and there is no on screen confirmations for what video mode is being displayed or what surround mode is being played. My old recriver is a 5 year old denon I paid 1500 for new and the only thing it does not have is dolby vision. There is nothing good I can really say about this receiver. I love music and use front ore outs going to a yamaha mx 1000u power Amp and the pre Amp on the receiver is so bad. There is no memory at all so if I'm listening to music in 2ch stereo mode as soon as I change to my Xbox I have to manually set it to dolby or auto. The thing should remember what options are set for each input and does not. For 800 dollars you are better off buying a 3 year old receiver from denon or marantz. You will get alot more for your money. Now onto the major flaw in this recriver as well as all 2020 and 2021 receivers. They all use the same defective hdmi chip. No 120hz and no 8k. Supposedly this is coming in a firmware update but that will never happen. So if you are wanting to play console games at 120hz forget it. If you are wanting 120hz for your tv that supports it forget it. I will be returning this and sticking with my 5 year old denon for now. ... show more

  • Very good overall.
This is my fourth Yamaha Receiver and the least expensive although certainly not cheap. Two older units just went to Goodwill with the third in reserve. I bought this unit to upgrade features, like Atmos, and because I also bought a new TV. The automatic setup worked well and at least the very little in hard copy instructions sent did include this procedure (the online manual is 300 pages long!) What I found lacking in this unit was a choice of input types for older peripherals. I have two CD jukeboxes that have optical outputs, but there is only one optical input on the receiver and that is to take the output from a TV but I am using the arc HDMI for that. My previous unit had optical inputs for all the various input choices. Going with RCA analog inputs won't really hurt, but I guess today's receivers expect HDMI inputs from everything. The one setting that caused me problems was the lipsync setting. To be sure, I was fussing with both the new LG OLED TV and the Yamaha at the same time, but finally figured out to turn off any lip sync corrections on both units and then things were fine. So, overall this is a fine unit with just a few things lacking for my taste (maybe available on the more expensive units but I didn't need any more power or 11 channels driven!) ... show more

  • worth it
this is my first yamaha receiver. previously used pioneer elite and onkyo. this sounds so much better - i won't try to get into audiophile craziness, but it absolutely sounds so much better than my previous setups. similar power out, similar noise and THD specs, but the sound is just so much better. i'm using it in my living room with a 3.2.2 setup and the quality of sound in movies is spectacular. i spent time on my previous setup to tweak EQ and was never *thrilled* with it. one day it overheated and died, so i purchased this. right out of the box it sounded spectacular - i'm not going to spend any time trying to improve it. i'm now in camp yamaha and won't be going back. ... show more
