Universal Remote App For Yamaha Receiver

The sound is excellent and at least if not better than Sonos. We returned the Sonos for these so we could use them in the same app as our Yamaha receiver. The app is easy to use and it's nice to have our home theatre Yamaha receiver be integrated with these speakers all in one app.

Added this to my Yamaha receiver. Sound is excellent!

This set up has solved a pain point for me. I rely on the SONY mobile app for interior shots. The app and the phone have trouble working reliably as it seems having a known nearby WiFi access point causes my A6400's ad-hoc WiFi connection to be deprioritized. The remote connects reliably and consistently with great range between residential floors and behind walls to a receiver which uses a nice coiled cable to plug into the camera's microUSB port. The receiver mounts on the camera cold shoe mount, if equipped or using its 1/4"-20 thread, as pictured. There are several shooting modes and even bulb mode to select from using a LCD, which is back-lit when needed. The remote is not tiny and proportioned well, the buttons are easy to press and sized differently to help differentiate the shutter from the others. The lanyard is a nice and useful touch to prevent drops. This pair requires AAA batteries in both the remote and the receiver (which draws no power from the camera). I should also mention that the remote can be connected/ wired to the camera directly and in that mon-wireless case use, the receiver needs not be part of the set-up. This makes avoiding vibrations from camera- handling possible, for example for wildlife/ astro/ landscape/ product/ portrait photography without having to dig through the camera's contextual menus to use/ change the shooting modes. It's a good accessory for my A6400 and I recommend it for its quality and features. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]

It allows me to either use the remote or the receiver as the switch. I really like it.

I have been a client of B and H for many, and have always had wonderful and informed and professional service.I just bought a Yamaha receiver, and through your professional guidance... it was once again, a satisfying and professional experience . Dominick Bluni

For the money this is a surprisingly good receiver.Put in my garage with overhead YAMAHA speakers.

Used to hook up my Yamaha receiver and Klisph 7.2 surround. Sounds Great!

I use the Aluratek ABC02F Universal Bluetooth Audio Receiver and Transmitter connected to the Optical Audio output on my Sony TV. It pairs with a set of Sony Bluetooth earbuds to provide a separate channel for audio for my aging ears while the TV's audio continues to function independently for the rest of the family. The optical connection to the TV was simple and the ABC02F paired quickly and easily to the Sony Earbuds. The ABC02F is plugged into a USB port on the TV and is always on so the earbuds are reconnected within the time it takes to remove them from their charger/case and insert them into the ear.

Pros:  + 320 ft/100m range + Three shooting modes + RF signal allows me to move freely away from the camera and not worry about maintaining line-of-sight with the receiver as you would with an IR remote.  + Receiver can be used as a wired remote without power. + Receiver can be mounted in the hot shoe. + Removable/replaceable cable Cons: - Batteries in both transmitter and receiver are uncommon, so if they go dead during a shoot, I cant just go anywhere to get more. - Receiver has to dangle if the hot shoe is in use.  - Retractable antenna may bend or break if not properly cared for. (I personally have not had any problem with this but it is something to consider with an antenna of this type) I primarily use my Canon Rebel T5 for taking photos of my theatrical design work. A remote shutter release is a necessity for me to reduce shaking in low-light conditions (even on a tripod) and a wireless one was a bonus. This shutter release was exactly what I was looking for. I can set up my camera in the spot I want and take photos as I walk around the space to view my work from different angles. Even when Im sitting next to the camera, I use this remote to help reduce shaking that becomes more evident with slow shutter speeds.

Bought two for surround speakers since I really couldn't run wires across the room. Easy to set up, and there are tutorials on the Yamaha website too. Pairs nice with my Yamaha receiver, and the app makes it easy to setup and customize. And it's nice to know I can move one or both speakers to another room and play music either from my phone or receiver wirelessly. Great sound too!
