R-S202BL Stereo Receiver

This item is a 120volt model not suitable for the english market

Not new to home audio and we just needed a very basic and yet powerful quality stereo receiver to power a pair of cerwin vega SL-12 towers for my movie/game projection setup. I feed it signal from an Xbox (handles streaming and audio/video source) to a dacx6 via optical audio which converts to rca line level and it does everything we need it to. The Bluetooth works very well and the sound quality is superb. I needed the simplicity of not having a room filled with speakers and subs so I went with large towers and it powers them with ease, the sound quality is stunning and uncompressed music sounds utterly amazing. The dimmable display is super helpful as it is mounted under the screen and it doesnt distract you. Typical a-b switching is nice to see still, I have my mains on a and a pair of indoor/outdoors on the deck on b for bbq listening. 10 of 10 yamaha delivers with this one.

Excelente amplificador de gran calidad en sus materiales y componentes de construcción, tiene suficiente potencia y su sonido es muy bueno, aunque le faltan graves sin embargo lo soluciono con un preamplificador y logró un excelente desempeño en todo el rango de frecuencias. Lo utilizó con dos bafles de tres vías a 6 ohms de 300 wats y los levanta sin problema, no llego a utilizar toda la potencia lo utilizo como al 60 o 70% de su potencia y es suficiente para llenar una sala de 40 mt2. Su sonido es muy claro y limpio, en frecuencias bajas, medios, altas y sin distorsión. Hago énfasis en que estos resultados los obtengo por el procesador de audio o preamplificador y la calidad de los bafles con bocinas eminence. El amplificador Yamaha solo lo uso de pasó no utilizo funciones como Bluetooth o el sintonizador de radio por lo tanto en ese tema no tengo opinión. Resulta muy económico su precio es muy accesible y es posible obtener resultados de alta fidelidad comparables con equipos de mayor precio. Definitivamente lo recomiendo! Ya van 2 que compro!

This amp is doing justice to the money invested. Pros , good base and treble, good looks and easy operation. Easy to setup I paired it with Polk Audio Reserver R200. Either those speakers or the amp could not do the max volume for drum beats. I compared this amp with SMSL A300. SMSL has punchy beat and drive R200 at high volume very well but could not deliver low bass in low volume. Yamaha could deliver base at low volume but could not deliver it at volume above 75. The max is 100. SMSL has sub out yamaha does not. My input source is Bluetooth. Smooth connectivity with both yamaha and SMSL Initially the unit heated up with play at high volume ... there is a log of vent (slits open from top and both the sides). SMSL is very compact and is chip based amp. This one is transistor based amp (looks from the slits) .... Too costly a equipment. Philips Audio SPA9125 2.0CH 130W priced at 22k probably would be much better choice in Indian scenario compared to this costly setup of amp plus speakers. I am waiting for my cheaper Cambridge audio speaker set and then will have another round of review. :)

Excelente produto com ótima qualidade exatamente o que eu buscava para minha casa
