Yamaha RX-V795a#

Despite the higher version number, this is an older model than the RX-V777BT that serves as my primary receiver. I picked this up back around 2000 when it was a fairly new model.

I upgraded from this to the Onkyo TX-SR875 to get support for my 6.1 Bose Acoustimass 16 speakers. I also wanted HDMI support. The RX-V795a now powers my game room via Mirage MX satellite speakers.

Overall I really like this receiver. It’s got fast video switching, it’s quiet, it doesn’t operate too hot, and it’s reliable.
