I primarily use this amplifier for listening to records (for those who use it for streaming digital music, this review will not pertain to you). I do prefer more separation between instruments when listening to music. However, for some reason, I keep coming back to this Yamaha amplifier. Maybe it's because this amplifier does output a very clean sound, and can be forgiving of vinyl pressings that are not in great shape. I had another "livelier" receiver, but ended up selling it and keeping this one. Per Yamaha's customer service, expect this amplifiers sound to open up even more over time. Even so, one can already still expect to hear some details that perhaps one hasn't heard before. I recommend that you use the tone controls to refine the sound to your liking. If the sound happens to open up more over time, you can adjust them accordingly. Don't listen to audiophiles that claim that you're not supposed to use tone controls. In addition, some folks may prefer using the "pure direct" mode, but personally, I don't care for it. Maybe it's a placebo effect for some listeners. My review is based on years of experience, and many comparisons; I'm not a newbie to this hobby. I'm not going to tell you that this amplifier is the best out there, but in my opinion, it is enjoyable to listen to, and once it's sound grows on you, you might be hooked.

I am using this amp as a subwoofer amp. It has enough watts to do the job. My complaint is the remote does not work. I don't really need it but it would have been nice to have one working. Hope this unit continues to work.

1. If when its playing and at 8hrs it shutoff the Selector knob light, around back to left of speaker connections theres a switched marked "Auto power standby" flip to Off..... Im very happy with this unit, it has really great sound and I am.happy it offers bass and treble controls.... 85wpc powers polk es55 speakers plenty loud..... it does have a point in volume where when turning it up fairly loud the speakers really come alive..... I almost thought about returing it until I found out about the switch for turning off standby.... Most people will be happy with this but if you are streaming this does not have bluetooth... Ive been very happy with my audioengine BT1. The 801 amp has a better dac but If you are streaming from a cable connected unit it most likely has a Dac built in so the 501 is fine... This is 2 channel 85wpc8ohm (most home speakers are 8ohm)

This amplifier has excellent sound quality: Power to speaker output is great (KEF speakers), and the cabinet stays incredibly cool - even when driven hard. The aesthetics are great, and because of the design, and slightly retro look, it appears heavier than it actually is. And you know what they say: Heavy equals expensive - LOL.

After several years of trouble-free listening it has developed an intermittent issue. From time to time it will cycle off briefly and then come back on. I've checked on a number of audio forums and it seems to be a wide spread problem with this model. As best as I can tell it is related to a glitch in the "self protection" circuitry. It doesn't happen often but it ruins the enjoyment of listening when it cuts off without warning :(

I wish I could take down my one star but I thought I could go back and update it I didn't :0\ speak of the seller ones of the bests he was great he made sure it had a signature receipt at the door I don't believe I asked for that but I liked it...... that shows a man with pride. Amplifiers great very easy to use and that loudness button I think there's more to that than they lead on I didn't move anything just the loudness button I just got it working and it sounds beautiful I wanted it because you don't have that funky surround sound I wanted my stereo to cruise through the kitchen and family room I got two sets of speakers none of those funky little bookshelf things didn't have much luck with him real smaller 12 mid tweet design home stereo speaker I wanted to get the silver but it just won't look right with all the black components it's expensive but it will satisfy

Great sound and classic look from this power amp. Using for a turntable only and performs great. Plenty of power and accurate sound delivery to speakers. Not the power of a stage amplification unit but plenty for my need.
