Our take on the Yamaha RX-V4 5.2-Channel AV Receiver with 8K HDMI and MusicCast

The Yamaha RX-V4A is a 5.2-channel AV receiver built for 4K and 8K TVs, with HDMI 2.1a inputs that pass 8K60 and 4K120, plus Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and VRR for gaming. It covers the basics well: eARC, two subwoofer outputs, MusicCast streaming with AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect and Bluetooth, and Yamaha's own room calibration. It is the entry point of Yamaha's V-series, so it skips the second HDMI output, multi-zone playback and the higher power of the RX-V6A. Owners like the sound and the setup; some report HDMI board trouble and a plasticky feel.

Questions and answers

Is the RX-V4A good for PS5 and Xbox Series X?
Yes. Its HDMI 2.1a ports pass 4K120 and 8K60 with VRR and QMS, which covers the main gaming features of both consoles.
How does it compare with the RX-V6A?
The V6A adds a second HDMI output, more power and a zone 2 option. The V4A keeps the same 8K HDMI platform and streaming features for smaller setups.
Does it support Dolby Atmos?
No. It is a 5.2-channel receiver without height or Atmos processing. For Atmos you need a 7-channel model such as the RX-V6A.
Can I use two subwoofers?
Yes. It has two subwoofer pre-outs, though both carry the same signal rather than independent bass management.
What is in the box?
The receiver, a remote, a calibration microphone, an FM antenna and a power cord. Speaker wire is not included.
Does it have a phono input for a turntable?
No. There is no phono stage, so a turntable needs its own preamp or one built in.
