Yamaha RX-V663BL 665 Watt 7.1-Channel Home Theater Receiver

Great unit for the price. Auto set-up features works great and is very easy. Great sound. I really enjoy and utilize the different sound programs. They really make a difference.

- Great Receiver... but Nintendo Wii owners take note
This is a great receiver for the price...has many features only some high end models have. The sound is great, very easy to setup, and very clean design.

Nintendo Wii owners take note
However, one thing that was not taken into consideration is the placement of the inputs on the back. Obviously if you own a Nintendo Wii you have probably upgraded the video cables to component video for the 480p resolution. My setup includes ps3 on video1(hdmi), cable on video2(hdmi), and wii on video 3(component). The video 3 component inputs are placed soo far apart from the audio 3 inputs that any Nintendo Wii component cable will not reach both the audio inputs and the video inputs. You have to choose video with no sound or you have to run the Wii component cables directly to your tv and bypassing the receiver which really defeats the purpose of having the receiver.

So great receiver but input ... Read More

- Good but disappointed
Wanted a 7.1 Channel Receiver with the new HD lossless sound to replace my Yamaha HTR-5750 and to go with a new Panasonic Blu-ray player.

Read too many reviews of the Onkyo 606 heating up, so didn't even bother. Tried the Yamaha RX-V663. Although it had a decent sound, which is why I gave it the three stars, it would not pass the Cox Cable HD DVR signal thru to the TV. The TV just flickered like crazy. Sent it back to Amazon and got the new Denon AVR-1909, which worked perfectly. Of course it was more expensive, but I guess you only get what you pay for.

I love Amazon.com. They took the Yamaha back and I got the Denon the next day. I will review the Denon at the Denon AVR-1909 page.

- Very satisfied, excellent sound
I considered several receivers (Yamaha 663, Onkyo 606, Denon 1909) before choosing the mid-priced (of the 3) Yamaha. The Onkyo ran too hot and the sound seemed to have less depth and the Denon was a bit expensive although the feature that lowers volume of commercials seems great. After 2 weeks, I've been very impressed with the Yamaha's sound through my old Magnat speakers (stereo) and Polk surround speakers (5.1). Set up was easy with the automatic speaker calibration (YPAO); I played around with subwoofer placement and each time the calibration worked perfectly. The HDMI works great, converting and sending video/audio with a single cable from my component DVD, HDMI DirecTV HD, composite VCR, etc to my HDTV. The remote is weak so I would definitely upgrade to a Harmony-type remote. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.
