Yamaha Receiver Bluetooth Pairing Mode

I bought this to replace my old Sony receiver. It has many usable features if you have the need. It's great to have Bluetooth pairing. Love the sound. It was on sale, so I bought it and am very happy!

This receiver has revitalized my 1980s stereo system by allowing Bluetooth transfer from my Sony Walkman (CD quality) and from an iPhone. When powered the receiver goes into pairing mode--your device remembers this receiver...you are connected. So far there has been no problem with connection or distance from the receiver. As this is my second unit (first attached to another stereo system) I only wish I could rename the unit as it comes up with the same name...only to be identified by the Bluetooth address. If you only have one of these, this will not be an issue. Attachment is simple: connect using RCA supplied cord to your receiver aux input. Having it on a switched plug on the receiver is very convenient. If not, you would have to push the light button to switch it into on mode. It has an auto off after a few minutes of not receiving a signal. It also has an optical connection.

I live in a hilly area where FM is sketchy and only few stations come trough, but AM radio rules. Radio is great, and both AM and FM antennas work well. Interestingly, Yamaha seems to be the only one on the market with FM. On the amplifier side it works with an older JVC tape deck, but if I want to listen to vinyl, an additional preamp is needed on the way to the receiver, receiver's amplifier alone won't work. Once preamp is in place all sounds fine. The Bluetooth is the receive mode to play from the devices. This is not a send mode Bluetooth to Bluetooth speakers, as some users assume.

Added this to my Yamaha receiver. Sound is excellent!

Very good Bluetooth receiver.

Great sounding receiver ....AWESOME with my Bluetooth

I bought this receiver for the Bluetooth connectivity. I am now able to play my iTunes songs from the iTunes cloud through my iPhone and the new Receiver to our inside and / or outside speakers - all from my lounge chair. I am handicapped, so this is of great help to me.

We have bought other Bluetooth speakers and though some were good., the new Marshall Woburn III certainly sounds the best. Bluetooth pairing is instant and easy. The app is straightforward to use and seems to be bug free.. The Woburn III is certainly not a low priced unit, but here you certainly seem to get what you pay for.. It is too soon to tell how reliable it will be, but other models from this manufacturer have got a good longevity record. Hopefully I won't need to but I would certainly buy it again!

Bought it to use with the Canon R5. Bluetooth pairing is very straightforward, this remote control does its job.

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
