Pros & Cons

YAMAHA RX-V385 5.1-Channel 4K Ultra

    • It is compatible with modern devices, like a new TCL 4K TV (a 2018 year model).
    • Awesome quality and great premium quality sound, I approve.
    • The setup is very easy and simple.
    • You can stream content from a phone or a tablet via Bluetooth.

Cons

    • You cannot use the Bluetooth module with two different devices at the same time.
    • Some buyers have reported echoing issues.
    • The USB port does not work with the iPod.

Pioneer VSX-531

VS

Pros

    • Built-in decoders: DTS-HD, Dolby True HD and digital plus that can play almost any kind of files properly.
    • With built-in Bluetooth now I can stream music from a phone.
    • Build in clock and sleeping timer are useful benefits since it switches off in set up time.
    • Personally, I have most devices on HDMI ports and only a few analogs, but it has almost all connector types, including TOSLINK and RCA.

Cons

    • No Dolby Atmos, but at such a price it couldn’t have one.
    • Notice that it does not support the Apple lossless format, but I do not have one.
