The editors liked

  • Superb high-end audio quality
  • HD upscaling over HDMI
  • 1080p compatible
  • Solid audio performance
  • Accurate autosetup level and crossover calibration
  • Useful Scene system presets
  • The V863 possesses a lively and energetic sound that adds a bit of swing to music and punch to movies
  • Yamaha's various DSPs sound remarkably good for a receiver in this price class. To find significantly better surround sound DSP modes
  • You need to look at AV preamps costing 200 percent more or higher than this Yamaha RXV863
  • The V836 excels as a multichannel listening device
  • Be it for musi

The editors didn't like

  • No THX processing
  • Multi-channel inputs limited to 5.1
  • Effectiveness of auto EQ limited
  • The Scene memories could benefit from more userparameter settings
  • Averagequality video processing
  • The V836 isn't the most ergonomic of receivers
  • From its design to its remote. It is a bit overwhelming in the buttons department
  • The V836's power
  • While adequate for most speakers
  • Does fall short at loud volumes with less efficient speakers. You could make an argument for an outboard multichannel amp for future system upgrades
  • The setup menus your door to the V863's bells and whistles are

  • Abstract:  Med festmusik à la R&B och techno är det uppenbart att Yamaha-receivern har en lite barsk framtoning, med en fyllig och rapp bas som återger rytmerna på ett kontrollerat sätt, och med renare sångröster än H/K. Men den rena muskelkraften är inte riktigt densamma. Men sammantaget är RX-V863 en mycket bra receiver som på många sätt låter bättre än H/K:s.

  • Abstract:  Hvis du er glad i klassisk musikk og krever det ypperste av lydkvalitet, trår du ikke feil med platene fra 2L – Lindberg Lyd. Og Trondheimsolistenes ”Divertimenti” på Blu-ray er i en egen klasse. Albumets luftige lydbilde brettes ut i større skala med Yamaha enn H/K.
