The BEST THING EVER I HAVE
Noisy everNoisy ever

Constantly Shutting Itself Off

It will stay on for a brief period until I need to raise the volume, then it will turn itself off. I then have to manually turn it back on and readjust the volume. A constant annoying issue.

I’ve paid enough for a working app

I’ve given you close to $6k between two receivers and a sound bar. I deserve SO MUCH BETTER. Not useable. Doesn’t connect. Doesn’t let me adjust settings (that’s my favorite, waiting 5 seconds for my settings to go back to where they were). About to take a hammer to my soundbar. Thanks Yamaha!
