- The Yamaha R-N1000A is a 2CH Network AV receiver rated at 100 watts/ch and has two features most stereo receivers don’t: bass management and HDMI ARC support. With MusicCast built in, all of your network streaming needs are covered. Our full bench test report showcases its performance to determine if it lives up to their prestigious Top-Art performance. I discuss the results of these tests and compare the R-N1000A to Yamaha's older AS-801 Integrated Amplifier as well as the recently tested Arcam A25 Integrated Amplifier.

Been waiting for this one thanks and have a blessed day
I have been on a 40 ish year audio journey. Ive landed at Yamaha A-S2200 Integrated and even bought a Yamaha C-D2100 SACD capable source. Ive always enjoyed listening to vinyl so have a VPI TT with a new Dynavector Te Kaitora REA MC ripping through Harbeth 30.1 with a first time acoustically treated room. I also have an IFI IDSD dac/stream that i dont really use. Anyways rambling on but thiese gorgeous looking Yami’s are fantastic. The build quality is top notch.
Thanks so much for the video and article, ordered one yesterday.
@0M9H4X_Neckbeard cool. Appreciate you using our affiliate links to support the channel when you can. 😊
Thank you for this review.
I have been Yamaha fan since early 80's, right now i have 5000 series with personally build 6 way speaker's on 8 ohms load, AS-3000 amp, CD-S3000 Sacd player, AS-801, BD-A1060 Blu ray player and N503 Turntable, lets crank it up..😅
Very happy with my A-S801 amp. Great power section & DAC. No issues, even with high-demand speakers like the Magnepan LRS.
I’m stuck deciding between the a-s801 and the r-n800. I have huge towers paradigm studio 100 v2’s and on my Yamaha Aventage they didn’t sound good until I bi-amped them and set the ypao room correction. I’m worried my speakers won’t work with the a-s801 and my room which is farely small. What do you think?
Love my R-N803D! Yamaha have really delivered on good sound and usability. MusicCast is brilliant. Will probably upgrade in a year or two. Let’s not forget that many TH-cam channels are pushing Class D amps and A/B is under pressure right now. This is not the way to go n my opinion.
DSPA1 now that bring back memories. Bought one new back in the late 90's
Same!
Yamaha is a very good company
And they make everything. I have a Yamaha outboard engine on my boat. Glad to see it measured well. I had one of their AVR years ago that didn’t last. The on/off switch went. I’ve had better luck with other brands. Thanks for the review with measurements.
I had my yamaha receiver for 30 years until the display went out, 93 it was the first receiver with DSP
And an immense Thankyou for this review! When I bought this amp to replace some very exotic equipment a couple of audiophile chums gave me a hard time. Listening sessions proved them wrong. I run PMC bookshelf, Jean Marie Reynaud Cantibile and next purchase will be Klipsch Heresy.
I just bought this amp and the Heresy IVs, setting them up later this week.
1:13 yup both the Marantz NR 1200 & Denon DRA-800H
Stereos with HDMI ARC
I can't wait to see the Michi x3 and x 5 s2 bench test. Please !
Before I properly watch your video I hope it is good news because I just bought one, delivery coming later today.
Thanks for the Dyno, I’m looking forward to how this Yamy and its big brother the 2000 power your Revels! Also curious to how the RN1000 and RN2000 compare to each other. In low and high volume levels. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this awesome review. Thanks to all the information you provided I'm getting the Yamaha R n1000a because of your bench test. I'm returning a Rotel S14 because it can't power my Kef R7 as this speakers dip down to 3.2 ohms and the Rotel gets the hot icon after playing music for 6 minutes at 80% volume. I'm hopping the yamaha R n1000a doesn't do that as its rated at 2 ohms. I will let you know how it pairs with my R7s in a couple of weeks.
Please report back with your results, good luck!
Waiting, waiting... for the bench test of R-N2000A! So much speculation about it being based on the AS1200 with a bit of the AS2200.
Love my R-N2000A. This looks like a great option if you don't want to spend as much. I like that Yamaha has a lot of different tiers to fit people's budgets.
Hello Gene, I really loved your review on Yamaha, can you please also review and provide your feedback on the newly launched Technics range of stereo receivers and amplifiers, very eager to know how they perform because they advertise it as 100% Digital Amplification since they don't use Dac's I guess. I'm just very much anticipated to know who wins the Tug of War "Analog vs Digital"
Great Gene. Would you upgrade from Yamaha rn803? Thanks
Thank you for the video, my only question is , does it make sense to upgrade from R-N1000A to R-N2000A ? Is it any different sound between them ?
I’m all about the R-N2000. The 1000 is CRAZY good value!! Loving hifi right now for the price to performance ratio ❤
I couldn’t agree more. I’m looking forward to getting a RN2000a because I appreciate the build quality. But that RN1000 really is a fantastic bang for you buck! 👍🏻🔈
Made in Malaysia for 1800$$$$ ???? Good value ? How ?
@@ivanronin8209 good value for what you get in today’s market. I would likely only buy it on sale and to me it does not matter where it’s made.
@@ivanronin8209 What receiver is better value and why? I think you only dislike it because it was made in Malaysia, and not because there is something wrong with the quality of the product.
Yamaha R-N 1000A's power section is not as great as Marantz Amplifier's power section, so I bought Marantz MM 7025 power amplifier (140 watts per channel in 8 ohms and 170 watts in 6 ohms). Now I got a powerful music experience 👍👌👌👌
Please review the same way the A-S 1200 and 2200🙏🙏
Hello from Canada, thanks for all your hard work and time that you put into your videos. I just bought a pair of new JBL HDI-3800 speakers. I have been looking at getting either a Denon PMA1700NE or a yamaha RN800A or RN1000A. Or maybe you have a better idea. Thanks EH!!
I would recommend the 1000. It’s a hot roded version of the 800. Did you purchase your amp yet?
To tell you the truth I went a different route. I have never owned anything Denon. So I bought a Denon PMA1700NE in silver. To run my JBL HDI-3800's and also bought a SVS SB 1000 pro and the SVS isolation feet. The Denon has some pretty crazy power and clear. I still have my JBL studio 580's and a Harman Kardon amp in a spare room for the girlfriend. She wanted down there because she said she was going to use it while working out. The only one who has used the speakers for working out is myself. When I took them down 2 flights of stairs and hooked it all up. Lol
I will be watching your yamaha RN1000a video in 20min and counting. T - 19min 59sec.
Genuine question: when does it make more sense to purchase a product like this versus a hypex based amp/miniDSP combo? High quality hypex stereo amps can be had for as little as around 500-600 bucks.
I have the AS 3200 and the sound is so clean I was shocked. Completely silent noise floor. Beautiful piece of equipment and made with pride. I wonder how it compares to this.
3200 is next level. Congrats
I have the A-S1200. Best amp I’ve owned in my 50 years in the audio game.
I purchased an Awol projector for movies but also bought Kef R7 and Wharfdale Lintons for music. I have a Audiolab 6000a as the integrated amp. My question is should I purchase a Denon/Marantz receiver or this Yamaha 1000a to connect everything? I want a good system for both music and movies. Just curious if this Yamaha amp would be an upgrade for my needs. Thank you, love the channel.
You need a multi-channel AVR to accommodate all of your speakers for surround sound. This is not that.
Interesting Reading on your print review..
Are you suggesting that if i have a pair of quite old but perfect Canton CT 1000 speakers that are 4 OHM Impedance, i should leave the Impedance setting on both my Recievers , a Maramtz
SR 7015 and a Pioneer SCLX 77, at 8 OHMS with no damage to any component ???
The answer is clearly stated in the video.
I would love for you to test the AS3200 to see how conservative they have been with their specs. As it definitely sounds like a grunty unit regardless of its wattage ratings.
When are you going to bench test the R-N2000A?
Hi Gene
a big problem is that it does not support Tidal connect so we can use the Tidal app instead of MusicCast is not at all up to date
I have a Yamaha RX-A8A same problem
A6A verry good
I bought the denon 6500 and the dynamic headroom for movies is not that great do you think the 8500 would have good headroom
I have been thinking about upgrading from my AS 801 to this but not sure there are any real advantages for me at this time. I use an optical cable with my TV and doesn't that give me everything HDMI would except for having to use the extra remote? YPAO might be nice. Don't you lose that if you use the pure direct mode? I use a Schitt Mani 2 phono preamp so I don't know if any improvements to the Yamaha's preamp matters. I guess the only other thing that might matter is if the dac is much improved. If I got a sub, then the 1000's bass management would make a significant difference.
The 1000 also has a few higher quality parts in it than your 801. It also uses a stiffer chassis and better grounding. If that means anything to you. I’m sure it would be an improvement, however likely not a huge difference. I would definitely be upgrading if it’s in the budget lol!
vs Marantz Stereo 70s - is it better sounding amp?
130 Watts per channel @ 8 ohms is not bad at all. That's 30 watts above their advertised power rating.
Gene in your opinion, is there a noticeable difference if I were to go from a yamaha aventage A2a or aventage 1080 to an integrated like this? I only have 2 channels and the aventage receivers are rated at 110 watts 8 ohm 2 channels driven so power wise they are equal but why would someone spend more for less channels and less connectivity in this case?
Unless you're driving low impedance speakers , I don't think you would notice a difference between this unit and an Aventage AVR.
@@Audioholics Awesome. Thanks for taking the time to answer! Keep the bench rests coming Gene! I was starting to get worried you had left your testing days behind!
Nice receiver. I'm curious if one hasn't any plans for using HDMI, would it be better to go for the R-N800A at a lower price point? Unless there are other audible differences.
Absolutely 💯
@@Audioholics thank you!
Yes, and if you don't need the streamer and the screen in front of the unit, take a look at the A-S801 👍
Could you please comment on the main differences between this and the more expensive R-N200A -- given that the power ratings are about the same? In what way would the R-N2000A have better performance? Thanks
The 2000a has a larger (toroidal) transformer, more filter capacitance and higher quality parts throughout. It has a more robust chassis and better vibration control. It’s in another class altogether.
I understand your confusion as the power and distortion ratings on Yamaha equipment are nearly the same from the A-S501 all the way up to the 5000 series.
Yeah, you can take quick glance at the two back panels and see an instant example of where some of the money went on the 2000
For MusicCast I need to connect with intranet ?
Is it possible you got a bad volume control on your unit? Just wondering if all of them are like that. Thanks.
No they cut cost by not making it a glide VC w bearings.
Is it possible that you the same tests on the R-N2000a? That would be very interesting to see if the price difference is worth the money or not. Thanks!
That was the plan but my R-N2000A is a showstock unit and isn't functioning correctly so I have to wait for Yamaha to replace it.
@@Audioholicsno way! I’ve been waiting for the RN2000a video to drop. Hopefully they get you a new one soon
Hello radunan1475, what amp are you using ?
Hello, what amp are you using ?
@@valentincodrean4937 I’m currently using a Emotiva A200 and am wanting to get the Yamaha Nr2000a
Hi. Does this amp support bi-amping? Thanks.
No. The 2 sets of speakers terminals are on the same 2CH internal amp.
like the crown on a good watch, it matters.
Anyone notice the flimsy back panel that flexes when you plug in your speaker cables into the binding posts?
Yes, though it as strong as it needs to be. I can assure you that the R-N2000 is built like a tank if you have the money. It also weighs 45lbs/20kg.
@@billd9667 Thank you!
It actually looks like rebranded 803d they had some time ago... I had it. Excellent amp, crappy dsp path...
It worked best in Pure Direct. I liked it in that mode
@@billd9667 that is correct. As amplifier - really good.
Missing the meters!
trying to decide between this and then 2000... is it worth it...? the eternal question..
I’m thinking of going with the 2000. I appreciate the build quality of it. I’m just waiting for the bench test video to drop before I purchase 👍🏻
The HDMI input isn't exclusive to this receiver. Other products in this category have it, e.g., Denon DRA-900H, Marantz Stereo 70s, Audiolab 7000A, NAD M10, etc.
I never said it was exclusive, but it's not common, especially having full bass management, too.
That plus the room calibration seem to be a rare combo indeed, especially at this price point.
Does the R-N1000A allow you to tweak the YPAO and other settings via the web app you showed us in earlier videos?
@george0t the YPAO on this product has limited EQ function and is designed to deal with room reflections more than just EQ shaping. I will see if web editor is available. I'm inclined to think no but will test for it.
Don’t forget the Leak Stereo 230 :)
Prefer the Arcam sound signature
I like my RN803 too much to wanna upgrade. Actually, it means I’m just too darn lazy 🤣😂
You basically have the same thing minus HDMI.
I’m pretty sure that the R-N800a is a more apt comparison to the 803. The 1000a is in a new category midway between the 801/803 and the A-S1200/2000a
I’ve owned the 803 and currently own the 2000. I would describe the 803 as more “tube like” in sound where the 2000 is “cleaner”. I’m sure that the current owner of the 803 loves it.
@@billd9667 ... how does the 2000 compare against the 803 in terms of refinement, clarity, separation etc?
@@hushpuppykl all are improved, though there is no guarantee you will like that. I miss the “warmth” of the 803 sometimes
🌷 Promo`SM
Dsp A1 was too good. If they modernized it I don't think anything would be able to touch yamaha.
Youre shirt is killing my eyes. Great video otherwise!
I just don't think the build quality is good enough for the asking price..
Boring receiver.
Yeah, I hardly ever explodes
Wheres the radio then ? You say it's a receiver
It has a tuner section as well

Back in 1993
It has an FM tuner. The back panel clearly has an antenna connection. It has DAB/DAB+ in Europe
