Yamaha RX-V2600 Review

Editors' rating

The good: The Yamaha RX-V2600 is an advanced 7.1-channel A/V receiver with advanced autosetup capabilities, the ability to upconvert analog video to HDMI (with upscaling to 720p/1080i), and an XM-ready satellite radio function. In addition to its high-end build quality, the receiver offers A/B speaker switching and THX Ultra 2 certification.

The bad: Multilayered menus and baffling navigation design may confound even experienced home-theater mavens. And while the HDMI video options are impressive, inferior processing and the lack of 1080p support puts the Yamaha squarely behind Denon's comparable models.

The bottom line: The Yamaha RX-V2600's seductive sound is matched by its up-to-the-minute features and stellar build quality, but its video options fall just short of the best we've seen.
