More options than older RX-V371
I decided to buy this over the older RX-V371 because of a few additonal features that made it much more convenient for me to use. The first feature is the front USB port which recognizes iPhones/iPods and mass storage devices which is a huge improvement. Gone are clunky expensive "docks" for your iPhone/iPod. The second feature is the onscreen (TV) display which makes navigation of settings much easier when sitting from a distant viewing position. No more walking up to the receiver to read the little display. The third feature is the YPAO system which uses the included microphone to test your room's acoustics. There's also 4K Pass-Through which means future 4K displays and Blu-ray players will still be compatible with this receiver. Last is ECO mode which reduces power consumption by the receiver.

This receiver is perfect for the living room or the bedroom. This is actually my second Yamaha home theater receiver system and I have it setup for the bedroom with several...

Best Thump for the Money
To replace a 17 year old Kenwood, I originally decided to go with the number one pick of the av receiver list, on Amazon. While the Sony looked good, I still wanted more options. So, I chose another Sony on the same list. The whole time I couldn't shake the buyer's remorse I was feeling based on some of the negative reviews. So, with my third and final choice, (and second cancellation) I went with this Yamaha. I really didn't want to spend a whole lot for something designated for the bedroom. And, while this receiver was slightly more than I wanted to spend, the reviews for the RX-V373 left me little doubt. I received my Yamaha approx. 4 days after I had purchased it. The box came in perfect condition and on the first day of the allotted delivery window. I am extremely impressed with both the seller and Amazon for this feat. After opening, and, installation, I plugged in my iPhone and it roared to life. I don't have a subwoofer. Instead I have two large floor Technics and an Infinity...
Nice but...not what I expected.
I upgraded to the VX373 from a 10 year old Onkyo 7.1 reciever . Technology wise this reciever is leaps and bounds ahead of my old Onkyo, and the automatic sound calibration was very welcome.

I have 2 gripes with the reciever:

1) It doesn't seem to matter if I'm using Digital (HDMI) input or Analog input (Component), the reciever seems to be doing something that causes my sound to cut out for moments at a time. This happens frequently while using my PS3 for games, blueray or dvd playback. It also seems to happen with my OG Xbox360 while playing DVD's (games work fine). It's annoying but not a "deal breaker".

2) Making adjustments to levels or indivitual speakers after the auto-setups been done (or just manually setting them up) is confusing and a bit of a hassle with the menu system provided. I wish it were more of an interactive experiance like the setup routine.
