Based upon the specs, the unit looks like it will barely fit in height. When I was looking over the dimension specs I was concerned that the unit would not fit in the opening of my TV stand due to the height.

Oh sorry folks, I forgot I was writing a review on a receiver. Amazon prime is like not having to deal with your mother in law, because she lives far away : ) Amazon Prime is the best thing since white rice. I know, I can't believe Amazon ships on Sunday!! Thanks Amazon Prime!!I I seriously hate waiting a week to two weeks for my products when ordering online, so I usually just go to the store and buy my products. I just got this thing yesterday on Sunday. I'll update this review if it dies or something changes. An odd choice and the only nagging issue.Over all it's a sweet reciver.

Now you need to hit the options menu, go to input and change it in there. Now they set "scenes" instead of just inputs. The BD/DVD, TV, CD and Radio buttons on the remote arren't what they were on previous Yamaha recivers. You only have to do it once so it's no big deal.-Not a fan of the encoding effects and I'll always prefer a straight encode to hear the sound as intended by the mixers, but of course they can be disabled. Each connection is very close to another. I didn't have to do anything other than switch everything to a straight encode.Cons:-Very little access to wire in the speaker connections, even with my small hands. Old recivers probably had that, but they were buried within the front panel's menus.- You can label inputs, as you'll see in my images.-Everything just works. I love this.-Supports linear PCM, so 5.1 on the Switch is great.-Tons of settings to configure like individual speaker volume levels. More and more consoles are ditching optical for 5.1 like the Wii U and Switch, so it was time for an upgrade.Pros:-You can use the on-screen display to set things up faster than the receiver's panel. I've had a non-HDMI Yamaha 5.1 receiver for a long time now. Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2019
