Yamaha RX-V365 review

 

For £250 it's a good value amplifier, but you can get superior performance and functionality from a number of its rivals

Powerful, punchy performer ; steers effects well

No HD audio decoding ; no audio over HDMI ; auto set-up can be hit and miss ; sound lacks precision

A decent amp for the money, but close rivals sound superior and offer much improved functionality

Yamaha RX-V365 5.1 Home Theater Receiver Preview

 

Yamaha's RX-V365, with its MSRP of just $249.95 makes it one of the least expensive ways to get into an HDMI-equipped AV receiver. The receiver has two HDMI inputs, but neither captures audio.

yamaha rx- v365

 

This things worth the money. Repaced a old kenwood unit that gave up after 10 years. I really like the Yamaha much better.

I think the rx-v365 is awsome for the price. Read other reviews and got real nervous about some issues like having a hard time with the remote, general set up difficulties and a hard to understand manual. Not at all true, just take your time, read the...

Once in a while the volume down on the remote turns the thing up

Satisfied, esp. for the price

 

HDMI audio passthru lacking is not a problem, since I don't use my displays' speakers at all. It seems to be a bizarre design choice, but it's workable for many setups. I use HDMI for video input to receiver, HDMI as video output, and optical audio in...

Bought from NewEgg during special pricing, so excellent value! Sounds great. If all you need is a 5.1 receiver that's solid, well designed at a good price, this is the only one I found that meets my need. My old failing Kenwood is out, and what a...

Many display elements are way too tiny to read, for an A/V receiver that's usually far away. Setup menus can be perplexing, esp. setting up inputs. Search for and download info, which is not inc. in oper. manual ; Comcast cable remote does not have a...

Home Theater Receiver RX-V365

 

I bought this unit for my basement TV. Its a 42inch plasma with 5 speaker surround and Bass. For the Price this unit has a lot to offer. It will give you enough power to run a full surround sound 5 speaker system with a powered sub-woofer. If you are...

Very simple to use ; Has 4 large buttons in front that can be Pre-set to go strait to the device of your choice. (Also it remembers the settings you select for these inputs) ; Front Mini Jack for your Ipod, Zune or other Mp3 Player

No rear 120 volt outlet to power on other devices ; Only a Mono output for Sub-woofer (But does a great Job)

Great for the Price`

 

As you may have guessed from my comments above, I primarily needed a way of adding multiple component and HDMI to my HDTV which only has 2 HDMI's and one Component input. As far as audio goes, I have two bose bookshelf speakers stacked on top of each...

Does exactly what it says, runs speakers and links your HDMI, Component and Composite devices to your tv all for a little bit more money than a good HDMI switch box

Remote is not laid out very well so it is hard at first to figure out how to select devices and change basic audio settings ; No audio pass-through via HDMI so you have to run separate digital or analog audio connections for each input device

does what i need it to do

 

4 stars because it does everything i needed it to do. For the cost though it was a great deal, i got this for exactly $135

Lost a start because i didn't realize that the HDMI part of this doesn't take in sound. How lame is that

Cheap 5.1 for gaming and PS3 Blu-Ray

 

If the next model up that allows you to run audio out of your HDMI is too expensive and you want to settle for optical you can still enjoy Blu-Rays that use DTS-HD MA sound from your PlayStation 3. Simply go to the Audio/Video settings and choose...

Stylish, inexpensive, and functional 5.1 surround sound. Easily connects for Dolby Digital and DTS through 2 optical ports. Is capable of using with Blu-Ray but only through something like the PS3 (see other thoughts)

Only 2 optical ports. If you are like me you have a PS3, 360, TV and maybe something else. Had to buy a switch to accommodate. Some of the analog RCA plug ins were a little confusing as to what ran to what as far as the correct setting on the front to...

YAMAHA 5.1-Channel Digital Home Theater Receiver RX-V365

 

The reason I went with this receiver instead of the RX-V465 is because I like the way optical sounds over HDMI. Otherwise this is the same thing as the V465. I plan to pair this with some Sony floor standing speakers and a good (yet low end) center...

Does the job for me. I love to use low end (but new) gear in my home theater. I picked this up (which was an upgrade from my conventional zenith receiver which I got in a cheap Home Theater package) and noticed that the sound it delivers it great. I...

No HDMI pass through, although I like optical better then HDMI sound ; Really no other cons to think of
