Yamaha 5.1 Stereo Receiver

I've had this Sony stereo receiver for a few days now and it has surprised me in a very good way with performance for the price. I'm comparing this receiver to a Yamaha receiver that costs more than three times as much and the Sony sounds as good, if not better than the Yamaha unit, and both sound very good to my ears (paired with Q-Acoustics speakers). For listening to music in 2022, this receiver has just the features you need: phono input for vinyl enthusiasts (phono inputs have all but disappeared from stereo gear), bluetooth for streaming from phones, tablets and PCs, and above all, great sound quality.

Perfect replacement chord for some stereo receivers; in my case an RS 700 Yamaha receiver. Also works for some Fender guitar amplifiers. Did the job perfectly.

Compliments the playbar,Not as good as having a receiver and a 5.1 set up but good enough.

Added this to my Yamaha receiver. Sound is excellent!

The best stereo receiver I’ve ever owned! If you want the best, this is it!

This stereo receiver was one of my better online purchases!

I use it to connect my tape deck to the stereo receiver.

So here it is I bought these speakers and just received them today. I had a 5.1 Yamaha Sound System but because of a baby and the potential to pull the tower down upon themselves I decided I needed something more compact. So Roku you were the first choice because price wise you knocked it out of the park with the $149.00 price tag that I was able to snag them at. I get them home and let me tell you the hook up was so effortless and simple. I loved the fact that you could place the speakers either way you wanted and be able to program which was left and which was right. I have already tested several movies and the clarity of sound and volume of speech is perfect. There is one draw back that I would like to address and that is that when in game mode these speakers shut off and the sound goes through the TV speakers which I expect shall be addressed in an update I hope sooner rather than later. If you have a RokuTV then these are the speakers for you. I assume a center, sub, and rear speakers will eventually be an option to add and if so Roku let me know because I would love to test them out for you. Get these speakers! You will not be disappointed.

I really like this new Arc design even if it is a little bigger in person than I expected. We are replacing a Yamaha 5.1 system with this and so far the sound has been excellent; especially the dialog and resonance. I can't wait for the Subwoffer gen 3 ro arrive and create some serious impact.

I bought the stereo receiver for the price and Sony name
