Purchased the RX-V3900 from Crutchfield 3 weeks ago. Could not be more happy with the product or the service provided by Crutchfield. from Crutchfield.com I have this RX-V3900 hooked up (via HDMI cables) to a Samsung 42" HD Plasma, Polk SurroundBar50, Polk DSW Pro 600 subwoofer, Sony BDP-BX1 Blu Ray player, Motorola cable box. It replaced an entry level Onkyo SR-506 receiver. from Crutchfield.com I have long been a Denon Fan and when it came time to replace my Harmon-Kardon receiver I had every intention of picking up a Denon as I had been pleased with other Denon products in the past. When I did a head to head comparison between the V3900 and the Denon 3808, I just prefered the sound of the Yamaha better. I had already made up my mind and wanted to like the Denon more, but the Yamaha sound just had more presence. from Amazon.com Yamaha RX-V3900BL 7.1-Channel Network Home Theater Receiver (Black) I have bought at least 2 Yamaha Receivers and have never had a problem until now. I bought the Yamaha RX-3900BL 7.1 receiver because of all the features and because of Yamaha reliability. from Amazon.com I normally do not respond to these types of forums simply because I don't usually have anything to add, although I have used them extensively in the past when doing research for purchases. With the recent purchase of the Yamaha RX-V3900 I felt compelled to inform those considering the purchase of this, or possibly any zone-capable Yamaha video receiver, of the false advertising and blatant misrepresentation of its capabilities. The 3900 is billed as having a "Built-in 7-channel power amplifier" available in combinations designated for the Main Zone, Zone 2 and Zone 3. from Amazon.com Other people have gone into all the great details on this receiver. Overall I am very happy with it and have no problems. When I finally decided to upgrade, I knew I wanted to go with a networked receiver that also had HD radio and XM/Sirius and at least 4 HDMI inputs for all my equipment. from Amazon.com Pros: Many features, Very good sound, very good up conversion of dvd to 1080p, HDMI pass through, upgradable firmware, net radio, the best DAC's in any receiver. Cons: none if you know what your buying. from Newegg.com As others have mentioned this is a very good receiver and I could have given 5 stars except for one major problem. Every time my Samsung plasma TV and Yamaha rx-v3900 receiver are power cycled the Comcast Motorola set top box changes itself back down to 480p and I have to manually change it back to 1080i. from Amazon.com I'll keep this review short, as the other reviewers have covered a lot of ground here. However, since I upgraded from the Yamaha 1800 receiver to this unit, some folks might find my thoughts interesting. High points: from Amazon.com I nursed my 10 year-old Yamaha AVR into her golden years waiting until the right features and network integration could woo me into spending the big bucks to move into the new century. Well, considered me WAY wooed. from Amazon.com
