Just an awesome stereo receiver! 100 watts channel is certainly underrated. from Vanns.com Yamaha RX-797 Natural Sound Stereo Receiver February 2006 When the time came to replace my Yamaha RX-595 Stereo Receiver I started looking at new two channel stereo receivers. It is striking how limited the choices are. from Amazon.com In 1981 I purchased a new Yamaha Amp and tuner. An A-760 and T-760. from Amazon.com Our Yamaha RX-797 Audio/Video Receiver has brought quality sound to our home. We can enjoy a variety of music without the abrasive qualities of other receivers we have owned. from Amazon.com I am not one to lift a wine glass, swirl it around, and speak of its bouquet. But I know good sound when I hear it. I coupled this amp with a pair of Polk LSi 15 floor standing speakers (using the amp's 4-ohm setting), some decent 12 gauge wire and medium line RCAs off of a Yamaha SuperAudio/DVD player. The sound is beautiful and the total price tag was a bit over $2400. from Amazon.com This is an excellent 2-channel Stereo Receiver, for several reasons. Let me explain why I chose this brand/model over others and how I came to it. from Amazon.com Assuming you want a stereo system, and not a surround sound, and assuming you live on some type of budget, this is an amzing deal at whatever price you find it at. It ranges from $350 to 550, but its worth the 550. It has two features that I dont use, the XM capability and the 2 zone control, so I have nothing to say about these features. The sound on this unit is exellent. from Amazon.com From a long line of great Yamaha stereo receivers comes this wonderful model. This unit is rated at 100W/channel, but delivers much more like 150W/channel. from Amazon.com Yamaha RX-797 - AV receiver from Amazon.com In the late '70's Yamaha had a couple of receivers that were quite nice, with rich, warm, smooth, powerful sound. This receiver is just the opposite in every aspect. from Amazon.com
