An AV receiver is another great choice for individuals and families that want to build their personalized home theater component by component with a Blu-ray disc or DVD player and an optimized speaker system. Even if you already own a receiver, you'll find that today's models offer features and performance not available just a few years ago, such as XM and Sirius Satellite Radio capability, iPod playback, automatic system setup features, HDMI connectivity and system expansion features.

The Yamaha RX-V663 high performance 7.1-channel receiver supports the new Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD high-definition audio formats and video upconversion for true high-definition audio and video performance. The RX-V663 features Yamaha YPAO that makes it simple to setup and calibrate the speaker system and is a multiroom receiver for audio and video playback in as many as four rooms.

To complement its AV receivers, Yamaha offers high quality, great sounding floorstanding and bookshelf home theater speakers.
