In one review I read that it's similar to the setup menus on a 20 year old VCR. Also, with the osd, can XM categories/channels/songs be navigated through? - Scott Wed, 19 May 2010 05:40:27 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-2916 Most receivers now drop the Phono section since fewer people use turntables, or have a higher quality phono stage than the receiver would have. You'll need to add an external phono stage to the receiver, such as this one: http://www.needledoctor.com/Needle-Doctor-Phono-Preamps-and-Stereo-Phono-Preamps-1-800-229-0644-Audio-Technica-PEQ3-Phono-Preamp;jsessionid=0a010c451f432c05174819ea4f65b05cc884c12107b7.e3eTaxeKbh0Te34Pa38Ta38Lchj0 That's about as cheap as you can get, and you can move up to thousands of dollars, like any other piece of hardware. - ChrisHeinonen Sun, 07 Mar 2010 04:45:01 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-2915 You'll need a separate phono stage.. - Piero Sun, 07 Mar 2010 01:53:40 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-2914 how do i hook up my record playing turntable to the rv665 yamaha i just bought. it does not give me any directions. nothing is in the back specifically for the turntable. please help - bf Sat, 06 Mar 2010 21:49:37 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-2561 Have a question? Any idea on how you can adjust the zone 2 balance? I'm trying to adjust the right and left side to enhance the sound - James Mon, 28 Dec 2009 06:19:02 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-2033 You might be running into a limitation with the PS3. The PS3 might be sending 5.1 or 7.1 rather than 2.0. All but the L/R channels would be quiet, but still active according to HDMI. In this case, bass management would probably be disabled. Check to see what channels are in use, if the 665 can display that info. Also look at some PS3 forums for info on this issue. - Michael Bauers Fri, 24 Jul 2009 22:44:13 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-2017 I just bought an RX-V665 and I love it, but I have one question..... For music, I stream files from the network with my PS3. The sound is great, but I get very little subwoofer response when playing music.... what little comes out is not really bass, but more like the minimal bass of one of the non-bass surround channels. I have tried the Music settings (the different Halls and such)and the Stereo speaker configs, but nothing will force utilization of the sub. The Subwoofer does work fabulously for movies, though. Any suggestions? - John Leigh Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:47:19 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-2007 could you pls give me a good overall setup for rx 665 thanks - phil Sun, 12 Jul 2009 19:31:19 +0100 http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/receivers/632-yamaha-rx-v665-av-receiver.html#comment-1978 I have the 663 and it does a great job for my room. With an MSRP in that range bargains can be found so it the 665 sounds like it makes for a great starter A/V amp. - John C Erickson Wed, 01 Jul 2009 01:17:58 +0100
