Our take on the Yamaha YHT-5960U 5.1 Home Theater System with 8K HDMI 2.1 & MusicCast

The Yamaha YHT-5960U is a 5.1-channel home theater system built around an AV receiver with HDMI 2.1 inputs that pass 8K60 and 4K120, plus Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support. It includes five matched speakers and a powered subwoofer, and uses Yamaha's YPAO room calibration to tune the sound to your room. MusicCast adds Wi-Fi streaming and multiroom audio. It suits people who want a complete surround setup with modern gaming features without buying separates. Compared with similar kits from Sony and Denon, it offers more HDMI 2.1 inputs and MusicCast, but its speakers are basic and the subwoofer is modest.
