yamaha rx a700 7 1 channel audio video receiver black

 Hi all - I have a polk Cs10, looking to get the Cs20 but i read somewhere that i can use a bookshelf for the center channel. I have an extra pair of polk m 40's and thought i'd try it out. So... my question is are the gains/losses by doing this? My set up - Yamaha - RX 700 Polk...

 My first post here at AVS! I've read though this forum for ages and well here I am.  It's a long post but I want to provide as much detail as I can so I can (hopefully) get the best advise possible.   I have an approx 12x12 9ft ceiling bedroom.  A 42" LCD and a good size dresser under neat...

 Hi,   I am new here; been reading this forum for a while. Thanks to all who contributed to this forum's wealth of information!   I am in process of selecting speakers for my bedroom. I have been listening to a 2.1 Cambridge Soundworks system for the past 10 years, and while it is good, I...

Hi all - Just got the Denon as a gift. How's it compared to my Yamaha? , I feel like the Yamaha is under powereing my speakers - Polk 70s and 40s & Cs10 & BIC f12s X2. One of these recievers will go upstairs for a basic 3.1 set up but want to keep the best for my home theatre. Thanks.

There has been a sudden loss of output to the main/front speakers which are driven by an external amp the signal of which comes from the Pre-Out. The external amp is fine, and the receiver is otherwise OK. If have the receiver set itself up automatically using the microphone, it has to increase...

I've had a few problems with my HTPC setup that I've just been living with, but are really starting to irk me, and more importantly, my new girlfriend won't even touch the TV because it's so hard to use, so I'm hoping someone here may have an answer. 1) For whatever reason, my Yamaha RX-A700...

A couple of months ago I got a Yamaha RX-A700. Plays CDs, DVD-A, DVD's fine through my player but went to play a SACD this morning and got no sound. With not alot of knowledge I don't know what it might be. SACD? DSD? HDMI cables? I am at a loss. Ideas? Thanks.

Im looking to upgrade receivers from my current Denon 1609. I want at least 5 HDMI inputs on the rear, full preouts, latest audio codecs, and audyssey/audio setup with a mic. I want to be within the $300 price range. I can get the RX-A700 on newegg for $299 shipped, refurbished. I am fine...

Good morning all, I'm trying to update the firmware on my RX-A700 receiver. This firmware is the same for a RX-V667, RX-A700, or RX-A800. I've downloaded the WAV file, burned it to a CD, and put it in my (borrowed) 101 Disc changer, connected the Optical out to the receiver and the changer...

I was able to get both of these for close to the same price (with the Yamaha being about $40 cheaper). I don't care for networking as I have plenty of other devices that already do all that. For sound quality for movies, tv, games - which of these is the best?

What u like and dislike about the reciever? i had a htr 6060 and i find it blew it away power wise but needed the extra hdmi ports!
