A Good Way to Enter 7.1 Surround Sound

bytombeaman Sep 16, 2007
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Good manual, lots of inputs, plenty of power, easy remote
Cons Amps can't drive both 7.1 and Zone 2 at the same time.
Recommended it? Yes

The Yamaha RX-V661 is a good starting point to enter the world of 7.1 surround sound. It has the features you would need to not only have the best in surround sound (7.1), but also to drive speakers playing a different source in a second zone--although not both at the same time!

Pros Good value and features for price.
Cons Remote is tricky. Input options aren't always great.
Recommended it? Yes

I got a quick reply from Yamaha on the issue below - there is an option for re-assigning digital inputs and outputs. Worked like a charm.

Pros Video upconversion to 1080p all through one HDMI output.  Silent Cinema!
Cons Remote / Amplifier
Recommended it? Yes

INTRODUCTION

One of the things I love about my RX-V1900 is that ANY input (coax, RCA, component) all get output via the HDMI output.  This is NOT true with the RX-V365 through the RX-V565.  The first Yamaha receiver that does this is the RX-V665 - but alas, that receiver isn't... Read full review »

Pros *options<br>*Sound<br>*pre-outs <br>*Extra subwoofer...
Cons For the price, nothing negative.
Recommended it? Yes

I actually own this unit, having purchased it to perform pre-processor duties for my two multichannel amps. It can be had for a much lower street price than the $649.00 MSRP. I paid $452.00 including S&H.
 
First, I am not a fan of the tiny amps in today’s receivers (I still have... Read full review »
