2017-02-07
the Yamaha rx v68 one is a mid-range dolby atmos compatible receiver at $599 it offers excellent sound quality and a number of useful features it has one of the most stable and friendly multi room music systems and the unit also offers bluetooth in and outs to headphones the receiver includes seven channels plus 2 seconds own speakers at acclaimed 90 watts each and this is useful for listening to Dolby Atmos and DTS X soundtracks the receiver also includes 6 HDMI ports which offers support for 4k movies and high dynamic range in terms of sound quality the Yamaha is pretty warm even when compared to a Maran slimline receiver at the same price this makes the Yamaha a good match with brighter speakers like clips for example if you have at most hight speakers you'll get a fully immersive sound stage when listening to the RX v68 one dialog has excellent detail and bass effects have punch music is also just as good as you'd expect from Yamaha and we love using the music cast streaming app of all the proprietary systems is up there with Sonos as one of the easiest to use the only disappointing things about this receiver are a slightly confusing user interface and a remote which has way too many buttons but this aside this is an excellent AV receiver which deserves to be on your shortlist especially if you're upgrading to Dolby Atmos
