Looking for credit for the received that was paid for. Yamaha 6090 received recieved but will not power on, returned item to seller.Seller confirmed receiver was received.
I have a 5.1 speaker system from Definitive Technology and have been very happy with the performance.BTW - if you purchase this unit, make sure it is running the latest firmware (you can download on the Yamaha web site) or you may have problems with audio cut outs as I did. I have had this unit connected for about a year now using a upconverting DVD player and a HD cable box. But no issues after the update. This is the less expensive / cheeper version of the RX-V2700. Although the same components used and vertually the same specs, this unit comes with a plastic face plate and knobs (not metal like the 2700).
You can find HDMI receivers out there for a lot less now, but probably with less options. I haven't tried using all the bells and whistles on this beast yet, but the 2 HDMI inputs and 1 HDMI output is wonderful.Only drawback is the price. I don't know too much about receivers, but after owning this Yamaha receiver for 6 months now, I know this much. this is a great receiver.
i plugged a xbox 360 via component and a cable box (dvr) via hdmi to the yamaha, and the picture that is transmits to the tv is superb. the HDMI connectivity was a MUST for me, and the yamaha delivers the upscaled connection that i wanted. a great buy, i would recommend to anyone. this is a great buy (especially with the amazon discount from the original retail price). the yamaha HTR-6090BL is very easy to use and handles my system with ease and enough power to all the speakers to have a clear and strong audio & visual experience.
The sound is just as good or better than the Denon. It even found one speaker that I had the wires reversed on. The best part is my wife can operate it also. Replaced my way to difficult to operate Denon (and I'm a gadget guy) with the Yamaha. Easy to setup, I like the HDMI interfaces and the automatic speaker tuning was a no brainer.
