The RX-V375 could become a secret tip ...

when people remember the essentials. The "small" models of all manufacturers are now well equipped, as well as the Yamaha RX-V375. So back to the roots, I will never, for example, need more than 5.1, the device currently operate in a 2.0 setup with Nubert nuBox 460th

The device has up to meaningful features, eg with 4 digital inputs or still Component inputs, which hardly has a competitor in the comparable devices. It is surprisingly powerful with now discrete power amplifiers, it sounds Yamaha typical cool and analytical, but no trace of the old slender sound of previous days.

Even with the first note I was excited, radio (!), Have the device directly compared against Pioneer VSX-423 and Marantz NR1403. All makes listening fun, Yello with its sound patterns and popping bass, to classical music with a great resolution, all recorded on a AppleTV2.

From the operating concept other manufacturers should cut what, especially Pioneer, had to look up for only 2 little things in the manual, the rest managed intuitively.

Yamaha takes no Auto Surround, which has long been their principle. The downstream DSP then fetches from all incoming streams out the best. Who cares can use the Straight mode that simply does what it should.

As with its competitors, I would advise to use of high efficiency loudspeakers example of Nubert, less the RX-V375 does not deserve.

Is my second Yamaha AVR after 13 years of abstinence on Harman Kardon, Marantz and Grundig, strong buy recommendation.
