Excellent Surround System
Excellent System and I didn't even mount the 2 surround speaker on the back wall. Instead I bought 2 tall stands for them to sit on either side of the TV ( I had the room. for it). It not only looks great it sounds great too. I love it. It was easy to set up but I used my own speaker wire because it was a bit thicker.

Sound quality blew me away
I don’t normally write reviews for products, but this sound system has really blown me away and I feel compelled to share my experience. I am so far very pleased with this product. Yamaha is a reputable brand and right off the bat you can trust that you’re receiving a solid product for the price you pay. It’s a costly setup but quality from this brand is on par with what you pay. Setup was easy enough. It took about an hour and a half to get everything unboxed, wires ran, speakers set, etc. The AV receiver is bigger than I thought it would be! Due to the way my room is set up, I anticipated not having enough speaker wire provided in the box and had to use a bit more. Amazon has cheap 16 gauge wire that you can pick up if you have to do some longer runs. Firing up the unit and testing each speaker was easy enough. The magic really happened when I plugged in my devices and started testing different songs, movies, and video games. I’m amazed by the crisp sounds and deep bass this unit can produce. It really feels like you’re at the movies! The surround sound helps video games feel atmospheric. With all the different presets available, you can customize the audio to fit the medium you’re playing. What really blew me away was the subwoofer. I can feel the bass in my chest and it is such a cool feeling. Bass notes are deep and rich, and explosions rattle the room, placing you directly in the action. If you’re looking for a true home cinema setup, look no further than this Yamaha sound system. Don’t cut corners with a sound bar if you can afford it. This thing is the real deal!

Great All in 1 System That Doesnt Break the Bank
Sound quality is great. I am coming from an Onkyo system and this is far better. Volume control is in very small increments and easy to find the perfect level. A negative is when playing games, certain racing games lack clarity due to developers mixing the music sounds much loader than the car engine noise but this can be fixed. I have also noticed an issue with my Switch 2 where it will randomly cut video but other than that everything feels great. My dog (Corgi) also chewed on the remote for a bit and it held up fine.

A great basic home theater kit with Dolby Digital Plus support
I recently purchased this kit to replace a problematic LG BH9431PW. The LG claimed to support Dolby Digital Plus, but would not decode the new encoding from the Roku Amazon or Netflix channels. The Yamaha receiver in this kit handles the DD+ output from the Amazon and Netflix channels wonderfully. In case anyone is wondering, the AV Receiver included in this kit is the RX-V385. Some highlights so far compared to the previous LG BH9431PW: * Full Dolby Digital Plus support! Woohoo! I am now getting Dolby 5.1 output from my Amazon and Netflix channels. This was the number one reason for purchasing this unit. * The receiver allows direct navigation to any of the inputs: We use a Logitech Harmony 650 universal remote to map all of our devices, and the LG forced it to cycle through the inputs. This meant that, to go from our ROKU on HDMI2 to the DVR on HDMI1, the remote had to cycle forward through the other inputs like the optical, tuner, USB, and bluetooth to get back to HDMI1. This not only meant waiting a long time with the remote pointed at the equipment, but also tended to be prone to failure if the bluetooth scanning took too long. With the new Yamaha receiver, the remote is able to quickly switch between HDMI2 and HDMI3 with no delays or errors. * The speakers use standard wire connectors. The LG had a weird, proprietary connection plug and wiring scheme, so the old speakers could not be easily re-used with a different receiver (which is what forced me into buying a complete home theater system vs just upgrading the receiver). * The auto-speaker setup was nice. The unit comes with a microphone that can be hooked up to help balance the speakers for your particular viewing arrangement. The setup program not only validates the functionality and wiring of the speakers, but will calculate the relative distances from the speaker to the viewing location to help balance the volumes of each speaker. * Volume trimming between inputs. Related to speaker balancing, the unit will also let you decrease/increase the volume a bit between inputs. This is a handy feature since our DVR volume tended to be a bit softer than our ROKU, and the tuner would blow us out of the room. We now have the relative volume between the inputs a little closer to each other. * Powered Subwoofer. The subwoofer seems to have a bit more punch than my previous setup. Things that could be better: * Wireless surround connection. My old LG surround speaker setup had a wireless connection between the main unit and a satellite surround base unit. The new Yamaha forced me to run long speaker cables to the back of the room. A pain, but at least I no longer have to run power back to that location.

Great Audio Amp
This was a replacement for a Samsung system that went south! Delivered July 30, 2021 Pros: 1. Great Sound :-) 2. Completely wired System. 3. Easy to Setup. Cons: 1. The speakers that come with the system are 6 ohm speakers and the amplifier needs to be configured to use the 6 ohm speakers. It would have been nice in the quick setup guide to point this out with instructions on setting up the system to accept the 6 ohm speakers so that you do not have an impedance mismatch. 2. The manual must be downloaded from the Yamaha site on the Internet. If you like a printed manual you should have a laser jet printer. The manual is 112 pages of awesome information. 3. If you have an old turntable, you need a preamp to use it to play your old records. 4. The speaker wire that comes with the system is extremely thin and I would suggest buying 16 gauge speaker wire which will have lower resistance thus having a better sound. Overall: 1. Yamaha still makes great audio products. I'm happy that Yamaha has not gone to China and that the amplifier in manufactured in Malaysia. 2. I would recommend this system to anyone who wants good audio at a good price. 3. The amplifier delivers 100 watt power to the speakers so whatever speakers you use, it will probably handle very well.

100% satisfied & fully recommend!!
I bought this theater system for my husband because we had a major issue with sound in our bedroom and both hated it. Before everyone we watched anything the music and action sound would always be too much! And you could barley gear individuals talking during these moment, but could overly hear them without the sound in the background. We tried everything from messing with the sound controls to adding other equipment like a sound bar. Nothing ever worked!! I spent 4 days researching the best home theater systems (not just a sound bar system) for 2019 in December a few weeks before Christmas. After sitting through 100 plus websites and sytems, reading reviews after review, and making sure it met a couple of certain critiria my husband had said he wanted on the next system he bought, such as Bluetooth, the mic sound location, and a sub-woofer (not just a sound bar). I came back to this system over and over again on several different websites. It was Amazon and our Amazon prime that offered the best price and quickest delivery though, so my search was done. 3 months later we have zero complaints!! This system has been everything I had spent days looking for and my husband was amazed with his Christmas gift!! He continues to brag about it and tell me what an amazing job I did picking out this Home theater system (which is something he would normally do). We put the mic locator right in the middle of our pillows on our bed (as this is usually where we watch t.v. in the bedroom) and everything we watch and the music we listen to is perfect!! We have no problem hearing people talk in movies or having to keep the remote in hand to turn it up and down when the action is too much, or the voices to low.😂 In fact it's like we're at the movies when we watch one, or at a concert when we listen to music. (which is perfectly streamed from every device we have via blue tooth, or smart t.v.) Even the sound from the regular A.M., F.M radio is outstanding!! I can 100% say that I fully recommend this product and trust me you never know what your missing until your watch a movie in bed and it sound like the helicopter on the t.v. is circling around your bed and you can still hear the movie dialogue. I have no complaints at all and Neither does my husband. They only thing that could make this product better is wireless subspeakers, but the wires run around and having to be covered was a small price to pay for this kind of sound perfection.

Paid $469 for a broken receiver
I paid $469 for a refurbished system the condition said good but when I opened the system the receiver was heavily damaged, even though I connected I worked correctly I was highly disappointed that the receiver had a big damaged and the face of receiver was coming off I will be looking to return and buy the new one at this point it was only $50 more

Just what I wanted. Wish it had Dolby Atmos but still a great sound.

Excelente equipo
Muy buen equipo cumple su función para escuchar distintas fuentes, lo que me gusto es la programación predeterminada de distintas ecualizaciones que solo con pulsarlas las vas cambiando, quizá siento que le falta un poco de sonido por lo menos en cuanto a algunas plataformas de streaming que es lo que más he usado, no sé con otras fuentes. Hubiera sido genial que pudiera reproducir en dolby atmos en las fuentes que lo ofrecen, pero aun así se disfruta el sonido.
