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!

  None I can think off!

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.

  Remote Control Sub-par, Web Interface 'thin', Wired Ethernet Bug

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.

The first one could not access some stations, so they sent another one, So far this one is good , no problems, I like the functions. Just wish it had HDMI output. That would be great. That's the only con, but the unit sounds great, very clear. With a THD of .04 it will sound great.

  Sounds really good. output for sub, other inputs and outputs. Nice appearance.

  No HDMI output, little pricey but hey...

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.
