The Yamaha RX-V473 has built-in networking functionality, including AirPlay and Internet radio. Its sound quality is solid with both music and movies, and it can be controlled with a smartphone app that's available for iOS and Android
Nearly every competing receiver offers more HDMI inputs at this price level. The included remote is difficult to use, and the UI looks painfully dated
The Yamaha RX-V473 is a serviceable 5.1 AV receiver, but given that it has only four HDMI inputs, competing models offer a better value.
Powerful amplifiers. Robust selection of DSP modes. Supports AirPlay and iPod integration. Wi-Fi-based iPhone and iPad app looks great and is easy to use.
Dated menu graphics. Networking via wired Ethernet only. Amplifier sound slightly trails the competition. No native Pandora or SiriusXM support

YPAO Automatic System Calibration มีความแม่นยำพอสมควร เหมาะกับมือใหม่ที่อาจจะยังไม่คล่องในการตั้งค่าละเอียดต่างๆ มากมาย รวมถึงการลดทอนปัญหาผลกระทบจากสภาพแวดล้อม, ฟีเจอร์ AirPlay, K Passthrough อำนวยความสะดวกให้กับการเล่นไฟล์ และเทคโนโลยีรูปแบบใหม่ได้ทันยุ
เมนูเซ็ตอัพ หน้าตาดูล้าสมัยไปเสียหน่อย แม้จะแลกมาด้วยข้อดีในการตั้งค่าไปด้วยดูหนังไปด้วยก็ตาม, Internet Radio บางช่องไม่ตรงกับที่ระบุไว้ในเมนู
