Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The only receiver you want.
There are other reviews here that go into great detail about the receiver, so I won't... I'll just echo that what you read from previous reviews is all correct. This is the best receiver you could buy for under $2,000 right now, and maybe the best under $3,000.

This is an upgrade for me from the classic DSP-A2070. I didn't expect that the audio would be that much richer and more "live" from the RX-V3800 than my old amp, but it truly is. Incredible details reveal themselves ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Receiver
This amplifier is incredible. I tried all manner of HDMI cables just to see what happens and this receiver managed them all. Then I tried a host of unmatched speakers to see if the automatic setup could sort it all out. The YPAO system optimization works extremely well and quickly. I was concerned that it would leave the room too "bright" but it definitely got the accoustics right. The range of options is intimidating, and it will definitely take some time to fully realize the potential of this ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome, Fantastic, Superb Receiver
It was extremely easy to set up. The included microphone used to calibrate speakers did a great job. My wife was continually surprised at the details she was hearing. Previous receiver was an Onkyo 5.1, this is far superior. I am only using it in 5.1 mode instead of the 7.1 because I only have 5 speakers, and am using the other outputs for a second zone outside. I control my home theater with the Logitech Harmony 1000 RF remote, and I have the Yamaha in a cabinet, out of sight. It hasn't given ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - RX-V3800 One VERY fine receiver but no SACD playback
PLEASE SEE MY ADDENDUM FOR AUGUST 24TH AT THE END OF THIS REVIEW! My opinion has changed considerably.

I received my Yamaha RX-V3800 receiver from Amazon in late February and am totally pleased with it! I haven't had time to utilize all it's features, but I'm ecstatic about what I've tried so far. I had been using an old Pioneer video receiver (purchased from Fedco in National City, CA in around 1994 or so) which had only 5.0 surround (no subwoofer or LFE output). It only had the original ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing!
I'm going to make this short and sweet. This is my 3rd Yamaha A/V receiver and I couldn't be happier. The sound is outstanding and there are enough inputs/outputs to satisfy anyone.
Put yourself in the middle of all of your concert DVD's and action movies. With quality like this, I'm sure my next receiver will also be a high end Yamaha.
