Comments about Yamaha Yamaha AVENTAGE Series 7.2 Channel Black AV Home Theater Receiver:
I've been a Yamaha receiver fan for years and have owned several of them over the years. I like their ability to add in an additional front height channel while simultaneously powering the rear surrounds. The digital sound rendering effects are well done and plentiful.
The problem with this model is whenever the volume is adjusted, the level is displayed on the TV and there is no way to turn this "feature" off. Also, the remote control is a sea of small, similar and non-backlighted buttons.
While I'd buy another Yamaha receiver, I would absolutely make sure the model does not have the on-screen volume display. For my home theater, I find it really disrupts the experience.

I use it in a high ceiling family room. There are plenty of power. I have a pair of 6 ohm front speaker in bi-amp mode and a center channel. Movie is exciting, classical music is warm, pop music sound great too. Versatile and good value for money.
