Good: The Yamaha RX-V475 offered the best sound quality in our subjective AV receiver listening tests. Its feature set is also decent for the price, with five HDMI inputs (including an MHL-compatible input), built-in AirPlay and basic networking functionality via its Ethernet port.
Bad: Some similarly-priced receivers offer six HDMI inputs. The RX-V475 also has some confusing design choices, including an indecipherable remote and poorly laid out back panel. And the RX-V475's bulky design is hard to overlook when Marantz's NR1403 is nearly half the size.
Bottom Line: Yamaha's RX-V475 is great-sounding 5.1 receiver and a good value, although competitors offer better features and design. [Read more]
