I am thoroughly satisfied with the performance of this network receiver. It was very easy to set up the Musicast App. I stream music Pandora Plus and it sounds excellent. CD/SACD's sound amazing for a receiver in this price range!

This unit replaced a 24 year old Denon DRA-835R, which is now in another room. The Denon worked fine but lacked modern features. The new Yamaha is terrific at network-source playback of every sort. It has a superb amplifier stage, far better quality than most other stereo receivers these days.

If you don't need multi-channel movie sound the R-N602 blends a host of input sources along with straightforward operation and great sound. It supports WiFi, bluetooth, USB, as well as conventional phono, line and optical inputs.

I had an older Yamaha receiver and replaced it with this one. I wanted to be able to use Bluetooth and wi-fi to play music. I also wanted built-in internet radio. I could have done all this by adding various components and adapters onto my old Yamaha receiver.

Yamaha did the right thing with this 2 channel receiver, has all the bells and whistles you can think of, and is loaded with power, drives my Q700 with great sound, love it!

I use this amp in a large space so the output can reach high volumes. The amp cannot handle the load and shuts off. When turning it back on it has a "check speaker wires" msg. I replaced all 200 feet of wire with 12ga and added a fan to cool it. That helped but did not cure the issue.

I'm so happy with this reciever I have it my basement home gym driving to 16" pro dynamics studio monitors,2yamaha NS-A160s,a JBL down fire sub and a 55"vizio all older stuff perfect for what I bought it for USB PORT charges my phone while it plays my iTunes

This is a my dream amplifier which has basic function as amplifier plus FM/AM tuner, net radio, music streaming. And it can use app-stored in iphone/smartphone to activate music cast inside my house or garden via wi-fi networks. You can enjoy your favorite programs anywhere in your house.

  No Speaker Cables

Most offerings are for 5-7 theatre rooms but if you want just a good stereo system this a good choice. Easy to set up internet radio/SXM. Opens up new channels of listening for better sounds than just a phone or computer speakers

Very nice unit. Everything I hoped for. Abt was the only one who had it in stock.
