Stop looking for the Sony DG-920

"If you want to simplify your cabling and wanted the analog video flexibility of the Sony dg-920 ( which you cannot find anymore), this is the receiver you want. Handles HDTV, PS3 Blueray, PS2 and other analog video up conversion through 1 HDMI output cable to your TV. Sounds like a Yamaha to me. I have had no issues with this receiver in either the video or audio features. Speaker setup was automatic and accurat..." Read Full Review »

Big Disappointment

"I purchased the RX-V565 for my home theater, thinking I was getting an HDMI-capable upgrade from my trusty RX-V630 (OSD, calibration mic, etc.). What I got was a huge disappointment, and after much frustration, I ended up dumping it online at a loss. This receiver was completely incapable of handling my home theater devices in a sane way. The problem? No assignable inputs. This receiver dictates what combi..." Read Full Review »

Yamaha 7.1-Channel Black Digital Home Theater Receiver Review

Amazing reciever for price point.

★★★★★
5.0

"Upgraded from an RX-V361. Even with basic speakers that came with the V361 in a set, there is a huge improvement in clarity of vocals and it is much easier to distinguish sound coming through the rear surround. The power is a little lacking per channel for a 7.1 setup, but with 5.1 connected there i …"  Read Full Review »

"This unit is feature packed and fairly easy to setup. I just upgraded my 12 year old sony 5.0 system a few months ago with a Samsung theater in a box, and while the sound out of that system was good, it did not offer the input selections that sarted to plague me.
