Great Home Theater Receiver

a techie, parent

FEB

2008

The Yamaha RX-V3800 is their upper-mid level A/V receiver. It features 140 watts/channel, 7.1channel, HDMI 1.3 (allowing decoding of advanced audio codecs like DTS-Tru HDMA, etc), and video upscaling/deinterlacing of analog sources up to 1080P.

It is a fairly heavy, well built unit that can e intimidating at first glance, even second. Still, the manual does a very good jo of explaining hook up, and set up. The automatic setup program works rather well.

Sound is excellent, clear, and smooth.
