Yamaha RX-A3020

A powerhouse of a surround amp and a shot across the bows of the class leaders

Detailed sound ; AirPlay ; Easy to partner with speakers ; Impressive effects steering

Yamaha’s Aventage range looks and sounds better than ever. We hope the other models in this range follow suit.

Yamaha Aventage A-3020 Review

Easy to use controls. Great sound. Feature rich ; I replaced a 10 year old Marantz SCE7300 because I thought the Marantz had a thermal issue and would go into protect mode on any loud sharp noise. As soon as I turned on the RX it told me I had a wire...

I won't ding it for these mostly because it is a feature rich piece of equipment so you need to know what you're doing - but ; Initial setup can be complex. The manual (which is only on CD) could be better written. Some parameters are not explained in...
