Lots of bang for the cash!! by DEWHITE236 on amazon.com Jul 1, 2012
I did not want to spend tons of cash just for the receiver and I wanted to get a big bang for my dollars, this Yamaha receiver hands down delivers. I've been using this receiver for 3 months now and it's kicking strong with no problems. This receiver ...
 
Fantastic bargain by QuadraQ on newegg.com May 19, 2012
I got this on sale at NewEgg, and have been extremely pleased with my purchase. I live in an older house built in the late 50's and the electrical wiring isn't the greatest. I was having ground loop issues with my old Yamaha receiver so I wanted something ...
 
Great Apartment Receiver Dec 1, 2011
This is not a world burning AV unit., and it is really EIGHTY watts/speaker not 100. But for an apartment or dorm room or any small area where sound fidelity remains large, the unit is superb. If you have a huge media room or small hall, who ya kiddin'? ...
 
5 Star on Value and performance by Anthony D' on crutchfield.com Oct 28, 2011
I'm really satisfied with this reciever. I didn't have to spend a ton on it just to get a bunch of stuff I didn't need. The integrqated surround sound features for Music & Movies sound exceptional. I really like being to listen to my music like I'm at ...

Poor quality by Tad O. on amazon.com May 3, 2012
After using this unit for five weeks the HDMI inputs stopped producing sound. We couldn't return the unit to Amazon because we were beyond the 30-day return window so we logged onto the Yamaha web site to find the closest authorized repair store. Fortunately ...
 
great features, low quality by N/A on newegg.com Apr 8, 2012
Now comes the challenges of dealing with Yamaha product warranty division. Based on another review on this unit it is the kind of challenge that inspires disgruntled postal worker imitations. For joy, for joy
 
Cheap Sound by E_Net_Rider on cnet.com Mar 26, 2012
;My factory car audio is much better, THX certified. I am trying to work this out with dealer and Yamaha. Only hope for this unit is it being defective. I gave Yamaha a try because of claims the user interface is better than Pio-n-eer, which was very poor on my last unit, but superb audio.
 
Broke in two weeks by Joel on crutchfield.com Oct 15, 2011
It worked for a couple of weeks, after that, the amp won't turn on, all you hear is a continous clicking sound. DON'T BUY!
 
Wanted to love it by M. Patrick on amazon.com Apr 20, 2012
I really wanted to love this Yamaha RX-V371. I had researched for several months and read many reviews of this product and had finally decided this was the one for me. I was replacing an older Onkyo that I loved but did not have any HDMI inputs. At ...

Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Yamaha RX-V371BL 5.1-Channel AV Receiver (OLD VERSION)
Every Yamaha receiver I have owned is still in good working order as of this writing, 10/10/11...I don't think we properly appreciate how good we've got it! At my age (54) I clearly remember the primitive black & white TV's I grew up with that nevertheless held my fascination for hour after brain-rotting hour...If you're just looking at getting started, don't have an extravagant AV setup, and want something that sounds good and is future proof for a reasonable price I couldn't find a better way to go than with this receiver...

The Yamaha RX-V371 offers some excellent features for an entry-level A/V receiver...Once it is set up, the unit's sonic performance is good—in fact, surprisingly good for an AVR at this price point...The RX-V371 represents just how far we've come in AVR development...And even though 3D is still a relatively new technology, the RX-V371's compatibility demonstrates how quickly it is being adopted...The overall look and feel of the RX-V371 is comparable with the company's higher-end units...

Yamaha RX-V371 review - Surround Sound System - Trusted Reviews
The Yamaha RX-V371’s wide range of connections, 3D support and auto calibration makes it a terrific choice for beginners on a tight budget...We review our fair share of high-end receivers and speakers here at TrustedReviews, but Yamaha is here to remind everyone that putting together a separates system needn’t be hugely expensive...This unassuming five-channel AV hub may not have the same mind-boggling feature list as the latest network-enabled Onkyos, Denons and pricier Yamahas, but that’s reflected in the bargain basement price tag...Not bad then, but designed very much with simplicity in mind...
