R-S202BL Stereo Receiver

This item is a 120volt model not suitable for the english market

This a late review since I bought this amp couple years back to control my poolside room speakers and poolside speakers but never finished installed everything till a month ago. I was shopping around for a good cheap amp that can control 2 sets of speakers with Bluetooth. Read many reviews and this was very well regarded so I picked it up on black Friday for $150 bucks. I was really happy with the amp, looks really good, its on a the light side (which it waa kinda expected at this price point). You get 3 line in inputs, 1 cd and 1 phone (not preamped) so you are covered with any device you may want to connect. Tuner radio and Bluetooth works really well, audio resolution is really clear and loud. It includes a remote controller that give you complete control over all the functions of the amp. Now soundwise, im pairing it with 2 sets of polk audio atrium 8 SDI, which are a perfect match for this amp and it shows. The sound is lively and fuller, I did noted some excessive bass on higher volume but I thinks its mostly on the position and rather closed environment, but with a easy turn on the bass control you can fix that (did i mention it have tone controls too?). I totally recommend this as a starter amp if you are on a budget or as a second amp or for an area that you dont use as much like a garden or barbecue area set with a good set of speakers. Check the video if you want some more detail around the sound.

Excelente amplificador de gran calidad en sus materiales y componentes de construcción, tiene suficiente potencia y su sonido es muy bueno, aunque le faltan graves sin embargo lo soluciono con un preamplificador y logró un excelente desempeño en todo el rango de frecuencias. Lo utilizó con dos bafles de tres vías a 6 ohms de 300 wats y los levanta sin problema, no llego a utilizar toda la potencia lo utilizo como al 60 o 70% de su potencia y es suficiente para llenar una sala de 40 mt2. Su sonido es muy claro y limpio, en frecuencias bajas, medios, altas y sin distorsión. Hago énfasis en que estos resultados los obtengo por el procesador de audio o preamplificador y la calidad de los bafles con bocinas eminence. El amplificador Yamaha solo lo uso de pasó no utilizo funciones como Bluetooth o el sintonizador de radio por lo tanto en ese tema no tengo opinión. Resulta muy económico su precio es muy accesible y es posible obtener resultados de alta fidelidad comparables con equipos de mayor precio. Definitivamente lo recomiendo! Ya van 2 que compro!

Dentro do esperado para um produto Yamaha, com agudos pronunciados e graves aveludados. Pecou um pouco pela ausência de entrada PHONO e de acionamento LOUDNESS, esse último na forma de potenciômetro, que possibilita a regulagem das frequências, excelente tecnologia Yamaha. Ainda, já poderia ter sido atualizado, com entradas HDMI, Óptica e Coaxial.

This amp is doing justice to the money invested. Pros , good base and treble, good looks and easy operation. Easy to setup I paired it with Polk Audio Reserver R200. Either those speakers or the amp could not do the max volume for drum beats. I compared this amp with SMSL A300. SMSL has punchy beat and drive R200 at high volume very well but could not deliver low bass in low volume. Yamaha could deliver base at low volume but could not deliver it at volume above 75. The max is 100. SMSL has sub out yamaha does not. My input source is Bluetooth. Smooth connectivity with both yamaha and SMSL Initially the unit heated up with play at high volume ... there is a log of vent (slits open from top and both the sides). SMSL is very compact and is chip based amp. This one is transistor based amp (looks from the slits) .... Too costly a equipment. Philips Audio SPA9125 2.0CH 130W priced at 22k probably would be much better choice in Indian scenario compared to this costly setup of amp plus speakers. I am waiting for my cheaper Cambridge audio speaker set and then will have another round of review. :)
