Overview

A 2.0 channel AV receiver from Yamaha rated at 80 watts, offering 5 HDMI ports plus built in Wi-Fi and Ethernet for network audio streaming in a stereo setup.

The 2.0 channel spec means this receiver drives a stereo pair rather than a full surround speaker array, despite sitting in an AV receiver category built around home theater. Five HDMI ports give it room to switch between several sources such as a TV box, game console, and disc player.

  • 2.0 channel configuration
  • 80W power output
  • 5 HDMI ports
  • Wi-Fi and Ethernet built in

Who it's for

Suited to a stereo focused setup, like a TV paired with two speakers, or a simple music and streaming system. Buyers wanting discrete surround channels for a full home theater need a different model.
