Yamaha RX-V483 review

Seemingly since the dawn of AV receivers, two brands have stood out from the others in customer's minds: Denon and Yamaha. Both have enviable reputations for great sound, and are consistently able to offer the newest, "must-have" features.

The Yamaha RX-V483 offers excellent performance for the money with both music and movies. Multiroom music and Bluetooth adds playback flexibility. Build quality is solid, and the remote control isn't terrible.

There's only four HDMI ports, and the user interface is a little tired-looking. Not compatible with Chromecast or Dolby Atmos.

As long as you don't demand the latest surround and streaming features, the Yamaha RX-V483 offers excellent sound at an affordable price.

If you don't care about Dolby Atmos, buy this receiver

The Yamaha RX-V483 may not have as many features as its rivals, but it offers excellent sound at an affordable price

Yamaha RX-V 483 Review

The Yamaha RX-V483 is powerful compared to other AV receivers that cost around $500. Its 130-watt power output on 6-ohm speakers can make your entertainment room feel like a movie theater. However, it doesn't have as many HDMI input and output channels...

This receiver has good power output.

It’s missing many audio decoders, including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.

The Yamaha RX-V483 is powerful and has excellent wireless connectivity options, but it isn’t the best choice if you want a future-proof AV receiver.
