I bought this product broken because I had found out that a great number of these units have a common problem as follows; When you press the power button the unit shutts off immediatelly and is an intermittent problem, it could work fine for weeks or even months but sometimes will shutts off and when it does will shutts off as soon as you tun it on. I have 4 pieces of this units under study, all identical behavior, the problem is that when they are working everything shows fine, all voltages and signals are there. I have tried to contact Yahmaha directly to talk with a tech and they always want me to take it to them for service. I am Electronic Engineer and I am going to find it out, if you just search the internet you will verify what I am talking about here, is not an overload, is not a short inside the unit, it could happens even without any speaker connected. Searching for an answer I have found out that there are 3 or 4 other Yamaha models with the same problem too.Read full review
I've been a fan of Yamaha audo equipment for some time now, and decided to take the plunge and upgrade to a THX system. I'm running a Klipsch KV-1 center and 4 KG-5s for lef/right and surrounds, with a Boston Acoustics CR400 sub - that's right, I'm only set up for 5.1 channel sound right now. My primary audio source is movies on DVD. As this is a somewhat older receiver, there are no HDMI ports - but there are plenty of Digital audio and component video connections, and those are the ones I use. Sound is crisp and clear, with great surround effects. I expect this unit to be the center of my home theater for quite some time to come.
happy with the product!

I have a lot vinyl records and I was request a amplifier with this characteristic and Yamaha HTR 5790 was the perfect equipment for my home theater and listen my records. I am happy with this Yamaha.
When I bought this receiver a long time ago, it took a while to set up and when I switched it on, after an hour it shut off. Putting it back on, it immediatley shut off again continually doing the same thing. After looking at everything, I noticed a speaker wire not quite right, so I fixed it and from then on, years, it hasn't happened since.
