Yamaha Amp - Best Bang for Buck 5.1?

For Yamaha buffs out there, I'm looking at a 5.1 Amp that has a good range of inputs, Airplay, and easy to control navigation/on-screen display. Budget is $600, could someone recommend me a model.
It has to power some Bowers & Wilkins CM1 speakers. I do have a Yamaha soundbar (YAS 108) but guessing that won't be adaptable in the amp (no speaker wire)? Thanks in advance.

  • There was quite a lot of interest in the Yamaha RXV 385 deal from amazon recently (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/505069)
    The general opinion was that it may be a bit underpowered

    If you want to stick to your budget, you can get the Yamaha RXV485. Wait for the ebay sales, and you should be able to get it from the seller Selby for around 430 mark if they don't price jack.

    If you can stretch your budget just a bit, get yourself a Yamaha RXV 685. There was a special posted recently for $699 (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/507346)
    This Will also future proof your set up for quite some time.

    • Thanks will definitely check out, appreciate the info
