For its price, it's the best. Currently, I'm using it with 2 speakers in one channel. It has the capability for another pair in the second channel and the option to play one of the two or both together

With BOSE 2.1 speakers, the 115 WATT is very satisfactory. The sound it reproduces at high frequencies is perfect without the slightest distortion. As for the bass, it's on another LEVEL. You can't get enough of listening to it. Of course, the combination with the speakers you have also plays a role. The speakers I have connected to it are over 15 years old and I didn't expect this amplifier to boost them so well. The bluetooth is flawless and very convenient. Of course, in an open space where I tested it at high volumes, it heats up and requires attention. But I don't push it because even at 70% volume, you can enjoy your music loudly. I have had this amplifier for about 2 years and it's worth every €.

After a sony shot, I regretted it because the shot cost 265€ and there was no clear sound anywhere.
After the shot, the a-s501 came out to be twice as powerful..
I am trying to see how I can improve the sound quality. But so far, I have not achieved anything at all.

Guys, I bought it today and it sounds really good. Quality, balance, clarity, it's all there. I bought it for 262 euros and it's definitely worth it. It's for those who listen to music. Personally, I play with genuine CDs to have good quality. Now, USB, YouTube, and MP3 are terrible in my opinion. If you want quality, play with genuine CDs. That's all from me. Have a good afternoon

I believe that it is the best solution for someone who wants to set up sound in their home and enjoy it. I connected it with some SONY speakers from '98 at 6Ω, and it plays a very nice, full sound at all frequencies. It has satisfactory sound above 65 for a 25 square meter space (living room), but you can't go above 85 with just 2 speakers. Consider that it takes another 2... I have connected a Pioneer controller for DJing, a piano, and a turntable. I am completely satisfied, although not so much with the price, which is currently around 60-70 euros more than it was in the past. It has very good construction, both the control and the amplifier. The Bluetooth works very well, almost no difference from RCA, and directly from a Windows PC, very convenient! Finally, it has FM, which for me is an advantage because I play the stations I like from analog signal, thus bringing a sense of poetic classic sound from the past.

All good. It doesn't have phono, coaxial, and optical. It does basic things. It drives the magnat SM 200 90W satisfactorily, it needs more than 50% of the volume to adequately stimulate the speakers, to fill the sound.

Extremely satisfactory machine for the money it costs!!!
I mainly use it for sound via Bluetooth from my iPhone and Apple TV with good speakers and I am always fully satisfied in relation to the money I paid, of course.

Good for blue tooth connection. Otherwise, only analog rca. If you want a lot of blue tooth, don't go any further, this is what you're looking for

I hired him to upgrade my AVR from 9.1 to 11.1 and assigned him to play the 2 front channels.
He does the job and more for his money.

Yamaha is good, but they have released 200 models with similar features and appearance as if they don't want to miss any price category and anything else! (i.e. at 200, 300, 400, 500 €, etc).

If you want specific features and amplification circuit, you have to research a bit with the models, as well as whether you want 2 Ch or Surround.
Despite all this, clean sound, plenty of functions in general, and compatibility. Affordable for basic models. Honest!

This amplifier is the definition of value for money. One just needs to refer to the reviews available on the internet. Powerful, clean sound.
The only thing that might be missing is a larger screen, a USB port, and an optical input. However, both of the latter can usually be replaced using Bluetooth.
It forced me to buy new speakers since the ones I already had (although decent) seemed insufficient for this machine.
Highly recommended!

Up to 50 of intensity, it simply disappoints with a clean sound without any particular coloring, whether you play a CD or Bluetooth and depending on the recording of the song. From there and above, it performs well due to "settling", but until 65 where it hits loudly, the speakers that are 2X120w also help. The brushed aluminum on the front "shows" quality construction. The remote control looks and is cheap.

After 10 months of use, regarding the issue of quality and sound, I recommend it and believe that it is the best for this price. The downsides: The sound settings could have been better (10 levels for treble and ten for bass, that's it). One main reason I bought it was for the Bluetooth connection. I wasted a lot of time searching for a USB Bluetooth with good range, but I kept experiencing interruptions. The distance is 5 meters from the PC and the USB is on the right side. Eventually, the problem was not the USB dongle but the amplifier (I realized this when the USB accidentally connected to the neighbor's TV through three walls!). The Bluetooth signal is terrible, as well as the signal of the remote control, which also doesn't work within 3 meters from the side. So, if you go for BT, it's better to buy an external BT device that connects to an input of the amplifier, any amplifier.

Yamaha. Delivery, reliability, and excellence. Fully satisfied. In this category and price range, it has quality. Many adjustments on the remote control (Sleep, Bass-Treble, Play-Stop, Next-Previous, Tuning-Preset, A-B Speakers, Balance), nice appearance. Suitable for 2.0. The most minimalist model.

Good morning. After a year of operation, I would also like to share my impressions about this amplifier. I was looking for an amplifier to connect it with the DVD and CD player. I have a pair of floor-standing speakers and the result was simply enchanting. The volume starts and gives it above the middle, and I can say that it continues until the end. Amazing sound, bass, and Bluetooth. Excellent quality and appearance. Compared to others in its category, I think it is the best. As for the price, it seems cheap to me. Excellent product from a big company in my opinion, especially when it comes to sound. I replaced my old Pioneer and wanted something simple for music only. As for the speaker clips that it doesn't have terminals, I used thick cables and of course, everything is available in the market without worrying. Fearlessly, buy it. I have become a loyal customer of the brand.
