### 1/5 — Que pasa con el RX A3020 ?

*2026-05-05, version 3.0.0*

🤨

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2025-12-27, version 3.0.0*

Latest software update has rendered unit invisible to WiFi. Do better.

### 1/5 — Yamaha RX V385

*2025-09-08, version 3.0.0*

The instructions are very vague if you follow them to the letter and there is a problem, you are unable to troubleshoot. Support is not existent. The hours are ridiculous. They begin from 7 to 2 pacific time. We will be returning this unit.

### 1/5 — No on screen volume display

*2025-08-16, version 3.0.0*

I’ve trued just every option to get volume display on lgc1 tv screen but the only pop up I get is the muting icon. This was never an issue with my older rx-a850 receiver.

### 5/5 — Easy to use, worked perfectly

*2021-01-26, version 2.20*

Used to hook up my old RX-V477 that is discontinued and works perfectly!

### 2/5 — Changes

*2021-01-03, version 2.20*

You can’t make changes (for example bd player with 2 hdmi outputs), ps4 pro with hdmi output plus optical audio output.

### 5/5 — Excelente trabajo

*2020-11-08, version 2.20*

Muy fácil de entender para los principiantes, mucha dedicación felicidades yamaha te ganaste 5 estrellas espero y pongan mas instrucciones y ejemplos en general.

### 1/5 — Simply useless for a visually impaired user navigating with screen reader on smart phone

*2019-12-22, version 2.10*

Inaccessible to iphone using voiceover screen reader.

### 1/5 — YHT-5950U Not Available

*2019-08-26, version 2.10*
