Our take on the Yamaha RX500A 7.2 Channel Home Theater AV Receiver

The Yamaha RX500A is a 7.2-channel AV receiver built around Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, with a 5.2.2 speaker layout or 7.2 with virtual height effects. Its four HDMI 2.1 inputs and one output pass 4K/120 and 8K/60 with ALLM, VRR, eARC and Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and HLG, so it suits current consoles and TVs. Built-in room correction, Wi-Fi streaming (Spotify Connect, Google Cast, AirPlay, TIDAL and Qobuz Connect) and Bluetooth multipoint cover music as well as movies. Against pricier 7-channel rivals it gives up extra zones and premium calibration, but it covers the core Atmos and HDMI 2.1 feature set for a mainstream room.

Questions and answers

Is the RX500A enough for a Dolby Atmos setup?
Yes. It runs 7.2 channels, so you can build 5.2.2 with two height speakers or use 7.2 with virtual height effects. A full four-height 7.2.4 layout needs a nine-channel receiver.
Does it support 4K/120 and 8K for consoles?
Yes. Its HDMI 2.1 inputs pass 4K/120 and 8K/60, with ALLM and VRR for gaming and eARC back to the TV.
Which music streaming services work?
Spotify Connect, Google Cast, AirPlay, TIDAL Connect and Qobuz Connect run over Wi-Fi. Bluetooth multipoint lets two devices pair and switch.
Do I need to calibrate it myself?
No. Built-in automatic room correction measures your speakers and adjusts the sound for your space. You can still tweak settings afterward.
How many speakers can it power?
Seven powered channels plus two subwoofer outputs. That covers 5.2.2 Atmos or a 7.2 surround setup.
What is in the box?
The receiver, a remote, a calibration microphone and a power cord. Speaker wire and HDMI cables are not included.
