Built like a tank, Sounds Great in both surround and 2 channel applications.

None

Yamaha have done it again with this ripper Receiver, that sounds great in Both 2 channel Hi Fi reproduction and Car Crashing, Door Slamming Surround Sound Experience. With a Remote that has a heap of great easy to use features. (even the wife is happy using it) Great Receiver, if you see one on the 2nd hand market make sure you buy it! Great sound at a great price.

Yamaha is alway make good product for your money.

Okay FM tuner. Phono output.

DSP modes are for the most part a useless "sales point". Amplifier is clean but doesn''t grab hold and move the speakers with any authority.

I owned one of these for a year. Bought a yamaha based on the 18+ years of solid performance from a 1010 integrated---was greatly disappointed. DSP modes weren''t worth using. Pro logic made some occassionally weird noises in the surrounds. But, it was the lack of body from the amplifier that caused me to sell it---I just couldn''t get use to the thin, flat and uninvolving music reproduction.I experimented with a few quality speakers all were lacking in heft.

Cant stand the Yamaha "natural sound", But the receiver is fair.

Clean Sound, reliable, good power

No DTS

I purchased this Unit 6 years ago (when it first became available). I have owned yamaha reciever in the past and have been very happy with the build and sound quality. I have used the reciever for both audio, as well as the movies. I have been very happy with the reciever. I am using ith with PSB speakers, and the sound reproduction is fantastic. It is a little weak on the bass, but that is partly due to the speakers. I have since purchased a subwoofer, which is a key for home theater regardless. The various simulated fields are basically useless. The distrotion greatly increases and therefore is not a good choice for listening to music, and I see no use for them for movies anyway. When I purchased this unit, DTS was not available (or at least widely available) yet. It is something so seriouly consider.

prologic preamp outs binding speaker jacks good power

dts

well people if dts is not youre concern this is the reciever for you. i had mine since 94 95 and i had the new rx-v800 for about 3 months now and im still wondering
for stero 2 channel music this thing drove my vs-15 cerwin vegas we sit out side and crank it up to a little over half
way and we had tunes it would get a little hot but we ran it hard for weekends my set up now

1.cerwin vega vs-15 (this is for 2 channel stero only)
2.polk rm 6200 5 speaker pkg for movies
3.klipsch ksw 12 sub for both
4.pioneer cd sony cd
5.panasonic dvd
6.sharp 27 inch tv
7.yamaha eq
8.rx-v800 reciever

now the new reciver has 100watts compared to 70 watts or if you change the ohms on the 590 it can be a little more if the speakers are lower omhs
anyway i can crank the new one full out no distortion but i dont think if any louder than the 590 at a little over half
800 is upgradeable though wow yamaha put me in a spot i tell ya going from a fine reciever to another is hard to judge but this one is a definetly worth the money
good luck on youre choices
