Yamaha PianoCraft MCR-N560 Black

Advantages: The presence of Internet radio, convenient sorting and saving of Internet radio stations in the created folders, simple and easy selection of them from the remote (without the need to connect a TV as in brx-750). Good sound from the disc and Apple devices via AirPlay.

Disadvantages: AirPlay works very poorly - it constantly hangs and you need to pull out the power cord from the outlet so that it recovers. In this case, two other audio systems in the house from other brands work with "apples" without a hitch. Mediocre sound (flat and inconspicuous) in Internet radio mode.
Changing the comment: In / consequence, dealt with the instability of the AirPlay. It was necessary to put UpNP - ON in the home switch and router.

Comment: He took the BRX-750 receiver to replace the same compact Yamahovsky Blue-Ray receiver, which sounded just great compared to this 560th. But he had all control done through TV, which is very inconvenient. By the way, someone wrote that the stations are not saved in memory, this is not so, the stations are saved through the V-Tuner site. He took a model without speakers, called the CRX-N560, and HECO Music Color 200 picked up the acoustics for it. And the HF and low in such a bundle is enough. A subwoofer is completely unnecessary. In general, for the bedroom will go ...

Advantages: Stylish body, good sound, the presence of a gadget to control with android. I am not a music lover, I am satisfied with the sound.

Disadvantages: Strongly disliked the lack of rewind through the songs! For mp3 it is tolerable, but flac is terrible. Settings can not be changed from the android, and could do it. The lack of presets like pop, jazz - only equalizer.

Comment: The main drawback is the inability to rewind the track mp3 / flac. USB works only on FAT, you can go through folders in the menu. Russian letters on the screen does not show. With android, you can adjust the volume and select songs from usb and the android itself, radio and Ineta, there are no complaints about the program.

Advantages: Very good sound. Let the speakers warm up.

Disadvantages: Reproduction from a flash drive is not thought out. Sorts by year.
Here I listened to this device and bought a completely different, much better.
Those who wish can sell with a subwoofer.

Comment: Requires a subwoofer. I bought a sub Yamaha - the sound was completely different, somewhere very close to the high-end.

Advantages: It sounds good, even better than I expected, it's nice to listen, ears are satisfied :)
Its cost is rather low when compared with other models.
It is easy to manage it, there are no intricate functions.
And of course he is just handsome

Disadvantages: I do not know, for all the time of use, I have not found any serious blunders.

Comment: I took it for my small flat, the sound suffices for it, and also that especially pleases me in this model - it does not distort the sound, that's how this or that track should play, so it reproduces it. I was also pleased with the availability of Internet radio, I don’t often use it, but it’s still a plus.

Advantages: Sound quality. Connect to a local network. Internet radio. Remote application for smartphone / tablet. Three-level display brightness.

Disadvantages: Columns on three legs - in the presence of a "reactive" domestic animals constantly there is a danger of overturning. The CD drive is noisy. Does not understand Russian tags.

Comment: He took mostly to play music from a media server, which is a network drive from WD. Connect to it without any problems. Reads all available audio formats in the collection, including Flac 24 bit / 192 kHz. The abundance of Internet radio stations of different genres, most of which work with a decent bit rate. There is no way to memorize your favorite Internet radio stations, each time you turn on you have to search again. The presence of the application makes it very easy to search for multimedia content, but it cannot yet completely replace the console. Waiting for updates. As an option, I was pleased with the interface for connecting via Wi-Fi (the antenna is purchased separately). The sound is very pleasant, without distortion and unnecessary decorations. The lack of a deep bass is corrected by connecting an active subwoofer (there is a special connector), but this is an amateur. The ventilation grill on the top of the receiver and the plus and minus at the same time - dust accumulates, but does not overheat even in hot summer.

Advantages: The ability to connect to your home network, listening to any Internet radio, is suitable for watching any movie, sports program or music style; there is almost no sound distortion due to the digital amplifier.

Disadvantages: In vain were all attempts to find them.

Comment: Yamaha as always on top. Unique connectivity to audio sources, high quality of both materials and system assemblies, reliability - all these are the main characteristics that provide the foundation for a thoroughly positive feedback on the audio system. I respect this manufacturer and for me it was inexpressible happiness to finally get something like for myself. Watching thrillers has become even more exciting, rock songs are voluminous and I finally heard why I love this music. After all, as it turned out, when the sound is clear and the frequencies do not sink, you hear fundamentally differently what you seemed to know by heart. Sumptuously! Five +!

Advantages: The sound is very pleased.

Disadvantages: Not for large rooms, speakers in black lacquer collect dust.

Comment: I bought this Yamaha in black and with black lacquered speakers, a room of 38 square meters, bass seemed not enough for such an area, I also bought a Yamaha yst 315 subwoofer to it, now the sound is just hurricane, very clear mid and high frequencies from speakers + soft bass from the subwoofer .
As a result, it sounds better than floor speakers with an amplifier that stand in the country. The device fully justifies the investment in it. The best price / sound / functionality ratio.

Advantages: Pleasant very compact, classic music center.

Disadvantages: As such, no.

Comment: I bought this center in July 2014 for 30,000 rubles, then it was considered a novelty, I look at the price due to a change in the course and did not grow. It works half a year without any complaints, it replaces me and the cinema (I connected it with an optical cable to the TV), and my old TECHNICS 530 center, Radio is available in both formats: Internet and digital. And it is very convenient to control it from the ipad and music from the tablet by wi-fay to it.
