| 43 of 45 people found the following review helpful  Superb Networked 5.1 Receiver, By TheDude (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Yamaha RX-V473 5.1-Channel Network AV Receiver (Electronics) I bought this to replace my aged Yamaha RX-V795 receiver that was about 13 years old. I was looking for something that supported the latest HDMI and was network capable. My home theater is pretty simple: Panasonic Plasma TV, TiVo, Blu-ray, Receiver. I initially purchased an Onkyo TX-NR515 as it had more features and around the same price. However, the Onkyo TX-NR515 had issues with HDMI: The video would freeze, scale incorrectly, or have no picture at all. In addition, the Onkyo's software had an overall buggy felling (like it was still in beta). So the Onkyo was returned and I started some more research.From the research, I filtered down my choices to the Denon AVR-1713, Pioneer VSX-822K/1022K, and the Yamaha RX-V473. As part of my research, I demoed the available iOS AV control apps. Pioneer has a sweet AV control app, but this app is only for the higher end models. There is a simpler app for the VSX 822/1022 which is not nearly as nice. Also, Pioneer seems to drop support for their models quickly as the app for the 2011 models is different than the app for the 2012 models. Denon and Yamaha seem to have better support as the older receiver models are supported by their latest AV control app. Both apps are nice, But the Yamaha app seems a little more polished. Also, Denon's app is an iPhone app, whereas the Yamaha app is made both for iPhone and iPad. In addition, Yamaha's app gets the highest marks in iTunes. Since I did not like the Pioneer 822/1022 AV control app, this left the Denon and Yamaha as the last contenders for my purchase. It was a tough call between the Denon AVR-1713 and the Yamaha RX-V473. Ultimately, I decided on the Yamaha and here is why: Preferred Yamaha's AV control App Yamaha supports component inputs and has additional digital audio inputs Had excellent experience with my previous Yamaha receiver That said, the Denon AVR-1713 does have two additional HDMI inputs (one in front and one in back) which I hope I won't be missing. In addition, the Denon has built in support for Pandora. Surprisingly, Yamaha dropped this feature from this years lineup (last year's RX-V671 did have support for Pandora and Rhapsody). But I think I understand why and it was possibly a smart move by Yamaha. Technology changes rapidly, and in the near future, this functionality could become obsolete. Why invest all that time and effort into integrating all these services into the receiver firmware? Supporting these services baked into the firmware seems like building in an 8-track player (as the service may change or go away). Perhaps it is better to spend the time and resources improving other parts of the receiver firmware. Simply support the common interfaces (HDMI, Airplay, DLNA) that allow other devices to connect and let the connected device provide any service that the future may bring. With Airplay, I can play Pandora (or rhapsody, last.fm, etc) from my iPad (or iTunes on PC) directly to the receiver, plus have a far better interface than what is supplied by any receiver. My TiVo also supports Pandora. So I haven't missed the receiver software providing Pandora directly. To see more airplay enabled apps, google "AirPlay enabled Apps." I have had the Yamaha RX-V473 for about a week now and I am really happy with my decision. It was easy to set up with my other components (including HDMI CEC). The unit has worked flawlessly and sounds great with my Polk TL1 speakers and subwoofer. Airplay works great as does the AV Control app. I can grab my iPad and control the receiver from anywhere in my house. I setup HDMI CEC so I could control TV, receiver, and TiVo all with my single TiVo IR remote control. With HDMI CEC, turning on the TV, turns on the receiver. Modifying the TV volume, changes the receiver volume. If I turn off my TV while watching TV, the receiver turns off. In addition, the receiver is smart enough not to turn of the receiver when the TV is shut off and I am not watching TV (like when using Airplay). The receiver plus the iPad control app is an awesome combination. The iPad is a really sweet remote control. You can turn the unit on or off, change the input, control volume, modify DSP setting, control USB connected device, control am/fm tuner, select internet radio station, along with other settings (base, treble, subwoofer trim, etc). You can also use the AV Control app to stream music that is on your iOS device to the receiver. I hope in the future all receiver functionality can be controlled by the iPad app as the interface is far superior to any on screen interface with IR remote. I can see how in the future, the iPad will become interface to the whole home... 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful Amazing Network AV receiver, Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Yamaha RX-V473 5.1-Channel Network AV Receiver (Electronics) I just received this Network receiver on Friday of last week 5/25/2012 and so far I am very impressed. I have my xbox, ps3, macbook pro and cable box all in hdmi in and my wii is hooked up composite and I still have plenty of room to connect more devices if I need to. I have my receiver hdmi out to my TV and am using Klipsch HD 500 Compact 5.1 Home Theater System (Set of Six, Black) with it. All I can say is WOW, I can't believe how amazing it sounds. I read a ton of reviews on Yamaha receivers and the speakers I am using, and to me, many people downplayed how powerful that combo is. I live in an apartment and my neighbors must hate me now. The receiver is quite easy to setup and use, and believe it or not hasn't produced a lot of heat as I have it in my enclosed entertainment center but I do leave the sliding glass door open just in case. I stream my music from my iPhone siriusXM app via airplay and it works very well, there is very little delay. I was very happy to see I can also control the volume from my iPhone also. Airplay was one feature that I though I wouldn't use that much, but find my self using it everyday so far. I spent many days and many hours reading about network AV receivers over the last several months, and I am glad I did. I am writing this to help anyone struggling to make the same decision I had to make. I use the device listed below to hook this receiver up to my wifi, so if you get this receiver grab the netgear adapter with it. Factory Refurbished NETGEAR WNCE2001 Universal WiFi Internet Adapter. Good luck -Pros: Amazing Sound Not as much heat as I thought it would produce Very Stylish sleek look Small enough to easily fit in my entertainment center Airplay Tons of internet radio stations Cons: No WiFi built in, but I don't see that with any at this price No FM antenna included (not that you would need this but sometimes I like to put on the old school radio) Other: When comparing this to other receivers and older receivers, I was originally worried that it didn't have the pandora and siriusxm app native to the device as the old model did. Now I understand why, with airplay you simply do not need it. 5 of 6 people found the following review helpful Awesome integration, Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Yamaha RX-V473 5.1-Channel Network AV Receiver (Electronics) I have had my unit for a few weeks and like everything about it. The setup was simple (apple tv, HD tv, Blue Ray, Direct tv, network, wii, 5.1 surround). I particularly like the use of the yamaha remote for controlling the peripherals. The integration with my iPhone is awesome! |
