M. Hautman (Oxnard, Ca) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) This review is from: Yamaha RX-Z9 - AV receiver - 7.1 channel (Electronics) I bought this unit about 2 years ago and have enjoyed its power, crispness, ease of use and was overall satisfied. But, when I upgaded my home system with better speakers, custom installation and an hd dvd player the true performance of this unit came out. This thing runs my entire house! It is magnificent in every way. One of the benefits is the ease of use it will read the broadcast of the dvd, cable or sat and set the proper sound settings. The think also has a little feature that reads the room so the front, center and surround speakers are set correctly. The price was a little steep but, after owning it for a while it was worth every penny. One more thing.... It weighs a ton. You need a forklift to move it. Go buy one.

This review is from: Yamaha RX-Z9 - AV receiver - 7.1 channel (Electronics) Have been setting up the AV Receiver with my older system components for a couple of days now and the setup is very detailed if you want it to be. The manual I first downloaded from Yamaha's website before purchase. I have learned more about the various 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 and 11 speaker systems and the various formats than I ever new were possible. The handles that the software gives you are very, very detailed. You can also use the included mic and do a very good auto set-up as a good place to start your overall system set-up. I could spend days tweaking the system if I can find the time. I am glad to have spent the extra, extra dollars knowing that this receiver will not be obsolete when the 5 year warranty expires. 2 of 4 people found the following review helpful: 1.0 out of 5 stars Yamaha z9 has been discontinued, November 25, 2009 By Benjamin S. Chin "scambuster" (ca) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) This review is from: Yamaha RX-Z9 - AV receiver - 7.1 channel (Electronics) Although the older z7 is still illustrated in Yamaha's web page as well as the latest z11, the z9 is conspicuously absent. The z7 has 140wattx7 whereas the z9 has 170x7 while the z11 reverted to 140x7+50x2. Evidence gathered from other users showed the z9 has heat problems that caused the z9 to auto-shut down unexpectedly. Using his knowledge of heat convection, one professional reviewer had questioned the location of the cooling fins unknowingly predicting an imminent design weakness. Inferring from the evidence, it appears that Yamaha has withdrawn the z9 and replaced it with the proven power supply of the z7 plus the extra 50x2 in the z11. If you still are interested in the z9, do ask the seller about the heat problem and a guarantee bond.
