Customers are pleased with the sound quality, ease of use, and the numerous HDMI inputs of the AVENTAGE RX-A2A receiver. Many also appreciate the powerful performance and relatively easy setup process. However, some users found the online manual difficult to navigate and the remote control less than ideal. The MusicCast feature and other advanced options were also highlighted as positive aspects.

    I recently had the Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A2A 7.2-Channel AV Receiver installed, and I’m really impressed! The Geek Squad technician did a fantastic job with the installation, ensuring everything was set up perfectly in my home theater. The build quality of the receiver feels solid and premium, and the sleek black finish looks great with my setup. As for sound quality, it’s outstanding. With 100 watts per channel, it delivers clear, powerful audio that truly enhances my movie and music experience. The surround sound is immersive, making me feel like I’m right in the action. I love the 8K HDMI support, which is perfect for future-proofing my system for high-resolution content. The setup was made even easier by the technician, who handled the automatic calibration feature, optimizing the sound for my room. The MusicCast feature is a nice touch, allowing me to stream music effortlessly from various sources. Overall, the Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A2A is a fantastic choice if you want quality, power, and modern features in your AV receiver. I highly recommend it, especially with professional installation—it made the whole process so much smoother!

    Easy to set up with YPAO; high quality sound using with Klipsch speakers. 7.1. Super immersive especially with ATMOS native sound. Pure direct for all you audiophiles. It is a Yamaha so it does have some quirks but overall i would buy it again

    Great sound and relatively easy hook-up. Annoying pdf user manual. Bought for price for up-to-date tech and reputation for reliability. Time will tell after I figure out how to use the eARC. Also, the center knob looks good but pushes the display to the right and is hard to read from any distance. It should be larger and under the knob. Decent remote, haven't tried the mic for sound since I won't be setting up HT until we finish the basement.

    Purchased this to replace the Onkyo TX-NR 6100 that I returned due to an overheating issue. Very good sound once it's adjusted to your listening preference. The MusicCast is very user friendly compared to HEOS on the Denon that I purchased five years ago. Sound and picture adjustments can be tricky if your not tech savvy. I would recommend the RX-V series if that's the case. Would recommend the four year Geek Squad extended warranty.

    This is an Awesome Home theater receiver. Easy to setup and get connected. Tons of features and Sound fields, but most of all the Dolby Atmos makes music and movies sound incredible. The Yamaha app will allow you to control the amp features form your mobile phone. This unit is a notch above and well worth it.

    Bought this unit to replace our Yamaha RX-V685 that stopped working. Loved the easy setup and new menus to customize our sound experience. The new design is aesthetically pleasing as well. Currently using the 4K functionality and excited that this unit is 8K ready.
