Pros Ease of Use, Great Remote, Sound Quality
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

First of all, I have the upgraded model of this receiver, the Yamaha RX-V496. The only difference between this one and the one that I have is that mine has an output of 70 watts per channel as opposed to 60 watts per channel on the RX-V495.

After my 25 year old Technics Receiver died on me... Read full review »

Yamaha RX-V495 a review after 8 years!

7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great sound, great remote (I use this remote for all of my electronic equipment!).
Cons It's a little big, but that's how they were made back then!
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this receiver in 1998, and although I'm just a regular person (not a stereo expert) who loves to watch movies in surround sound, I think it's just great! But, after 8 years, I noticed the sound from my front right and rear left speakers isn't working. After troubleshooting (i.e... Read full review »

Pros Warmth and clarity, DSP soundfields
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

Purchased this receiver about 2 months ago at Good Guys for $300. I had previously used JVC and Sony receivers but was a bit dissapointed with the harshness of the Sony receiver. I looked at receivers from JVC, Kenwood and Onkyo (for Dolby Digital) but settled on the Yamaha RX-V495 and have been... Read full review »

Pros Great sound, nice remote, plenty of inputs and outputs, good looks
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

Overview
Actually I have a RX-V496, which, as another reviewer mentioned, is the same as the RX-V495 but with 70 watts per channel instead of 60. It sounds great, is easy to use, and is unobtrusive.

Background
I got one of these at The Good Guys when I bought my home theater... Read full review »

Pros Stable to 145WPC with its dynamic power, 6-channel external inputs, subwoofer output, 5...
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

My first experience with this receiver was 5 months ago. At that time I was actively employed in the industry. I wanted to buy a full performance digital receiver, and Yamaha for years had been an innovative leader in surround sound. The RXV-495 is loaded with not only current technology, but it is...

Great Receiver

3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros sound, price, quality
Cons remote control
Recommended it? Yes

I was really surprised for what I got at for $400 price tag. This receiver makes every single DVD in my collection sound like I'm in a full fledged theater. The seemingly small power rating(60watts) doesn't hinder the sound one bit, and really out-performs the other 100watt receivers. This is... Read full review »

Pros Great sound, LOTS of power, good looking.
Cons No 5.1, no sub. output.
Recommended it? Yes

I got this one off a friend of mine for $100. It looked stable and Yamaha has a good name for itself so I gave it a try. Evidently the price isnt really high for this either way, but I still feel I got a great bargain! The sound this thing produces is incredible. The Natural sound? receivers that... Read full review »
