Yamaha BRX750

[admin_exported]

I was just looking at the Yamaha BRX-750 on Peter Tyson and it seems a really good price. I can't find any reviews though, does anyone own this or happen to know if it's any good?

Can you recommend any alternatives for that price? Two channel Blu-Ray systems are quite thin on the ground!

Cheers,

Jim

There's a YouTube video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tktPX1tqNRk

It's in German but my rough translation (using Google translate) seems to indicate there may be some problems with the time it takes the unit to turn on and to switch sources. They also report an issue where the menu system requires the unit to be connected to a TV with an HDMI cable.

Hopefully these things have been fixed with an update, but it'd be great to hear others views.

Also found this link to the Yamaha BRX750 user manual, although it still doesn’t answer outstanding questions:
