4 out of 5 stars IPOD Dock is FRUSTRATING   August 31, 2010
Rudolf Hoogenboom (Bellerose, NY United States)
I have had this receiver hooked up for about 7 months now. I recently got an IPOD dock for this receiver; it is the only IPOD dock that is compatible with it, and it is made by YAMAHA.

The music on the IPOD plays fine, but the video applications do not. On the video side, the movie or video application flashes on and off, and is tinted a wierd color.

It would be great to hear from someone who has the same trouble. YAMAHA made a few suggestions on setting changes on the IPOD, but so far, nothing has worked.

On the other side, the receiver is fine and powerful. Receivers have become quite complicated, and they can potentially do great things. But you have to be a rocket scientist or a brain surgeon to read the manual. It would be great if YAMAHA could create an on-screen menu to walk you through all issues, including troubleshooting.



5 out of 5 stars Three Zone Yamaha Receiver   July 7, 2010
Vixen
This receiver perfectly solved our problem of delivering different sounds to 3 zones in our home. As a result, we can listen to the same or different music, from various sources, in our living room, our family room and our patio. It was important to find a receiver that would accommodate our existing Bose 901 speakers, which I did not want to replace.
Working with the vendor, Quantum Electronics, was easy and efficient. The receiver was delivered on time and in excellent condition. I was able to track the delivery from ship date to arrival date.
The receiver itself was reasonably easy to set up using existing wiring, and synced to our Wi-fi net without a hitch. This enabeled us to receive all the music from our home computer and from the Internet radio and other download sites. The installation and operating instructions were reasonably clear. The remote control is very complicated, and required some "getting used to", but is very powerful.
The service from Amazon and Quantum Electronics was excellent and we would purchase this again in a heartbeat.



5 out of 5 stars Worth the extra money   March 6, 2010

I went and demo'ed the V2065 vs the V1065 at my local Fry's. Basically the sound quality was similar but the extra features are what drove me to the V2065. The YPAO feature is huge timesaver in terms of setup. Tons of other cool features. The only con I have found so far is that most universal remotes do not work with the unit as all the standard Yamaha codes dont work. I ended up getting a logitech Harmony remote for other reasons so no big deal.


3 out of 5 stars Good receiver, but.........   February 22, 2010

I tried this receiver for a week, and returned it. It has a ton of functions, and inputs, but seems as though it was engineered for the usual home theater system of today - the smaller front, center, and surround with a sub-woofer - which is fine if this is the configuration of your home system.
The biggest flaw was the inability to change the LFE level. I have designed and built my home theater speakers, to be able to reproduce more than the entire audio spectrum - all the way from ultrasonics to sub-sonics, assuring that the full audio spectrum of human hearing is reproduced accurately. Not being able to vary the LFE level, meant the only option was either "on" or "off" on the front, unless you have a variable sub. With very efficient full range speakers(15"woofer), this is not enough flexibility. The result was either overpowering bass effects, or turn these effects off all together.
As far as claimed output power.... I wonder. The stated maximum power input was (if I remember correctly) about 680 watts, yet the claimed output of 130 X 7 equals 910 watts... I am sure that this receiver does not "generate" power. One other item was the remote clutter, with small close spaced buttons.
Other than that, this receiver has plenty of inputs (and a phono!), and the on screen is quite good. I found the audio reproduction to be adequate, but seemed to have a bit of a "hole".... as though it was thin. I cannot describe it better than that.
Bottom line, from an audiophile and a purist standpoint, I feel less "sound processors", "tone controls", is better, and there are other receivers that rival the audio reproduction of this one for far less money - I am now using an Onkyo TX-SR806....

I bought this to support Projector and plasma HDMI outputs. Great quality with 7.2 speaker setup. Really liked the passthru feature i.e. system need not be switched on to pass the HDMI signal to plasma. MOst of kids shows are watched with TV audio.
