Yamaha HTR 5930 5.1 Channel 110 Watt Receiver

Yamaha HTR-5930 Review, Solid Unit

I purchased this unit used in good condition. It may not have as many features as more current models but has plenty of options and outputs. It's a replacement to an older rca htib reusing the small inexpensive cube satellites so not a fair judge for 'sound quality' (dependent on speakers). The center speaker was upgraded and definitely better than the speakers it replaced. A great value upgrade over htib solutions. Just keep in mind it's not a brand new Onkyo or a $1200 receiver. Provides true 5.1 surround with separate channels vs cheaper options which only split stereo through multiple speakers. Not currently connected to my sub because the sub is passive and as is common with this type of receiver it only sends audio to the sub out channel. Requires either an active sub or use of an amp. Not a con since that's pretty standard but something to keep in mind. Paired up with my directv remote just fine. Display is a subdued amber which is nice for low light use without distracting from the tv (ie no harsh brilliant blue or other distractions). Read full review

Yamaha HTR5930

Everything is easy enough to use. I have very sensitive ears so sound quality is paramount. I find the sound needs to be cleaner. I detect a sharpness I don't hear in other amps. Great value for the price but have relegated to the thrift store. Would buy from this vendor again.Read full review

It's all in the sound

Well, first of all I need to thank the vendor for sending such a thoughtful letter; on how to help and what to do in the event that I was having problems. So, a big thanks for that!
I had to get a little creative to make my antiquated speakers work. The only thing I was not happy with was my own sub woofer! It's a dud! Worked good with the Panasonic receiver, not so good with the Yamaha. Simply because it is not an active sub woofer! That will be my next investment! I'll call the vendor to see if he has one lying around!
The music sounds gorgeous and despite not having a booming sub woofer, the movies sound just as dramatic! I am very happy and pleased! Thanks!Read full review

Cheap used avr

These can be had for a song now and can be useful for subsidiary listening zones. Remotes are seldom provided. SQ is adequate but certainly not audiophile quality. Price is hard to beat because they are obsolete as avrs.Read full review

Yamaha HTR 5930 receiver

Good sound quality with many options. Radio presets are confusing, but can be done with the manual. Output speaker jacks could be larger to accept higher gauge speaker wires.

Great buy

This receiver was a little tricky to figure out at first setting levels for all the speakers. Once I figured out how to do that, I set it and everything sounds great. Much better than my old Sony strk7000. I love this receiver.Read full review
