Yamaha R200A Stereo Receiver with DAB+, Silver

Yamaha R200A – the stereo receiver with a turntable input

The Yamaha R200A is a stereo receiver with 2× 100 W, DAB+/FM/AM radio, Bluetooth 5.3 and – new compared to the R-S202D – a phono input for your turntable. It also has a subwoofer output and two speaker pairs (A/B). All you need are speakers and the system is ready: for getting started, as a second system or as the heart of a setup with a turntable.

Sound & amplification

2× 100 W into 8 ohms, 2× 80 W into 6 ohms and up to 2× 115 W into 4 ohms – plenty for normal bookshelf and floorstanding speakers. Yamaha relies on a center-beam chassis against vibration, a generous heat sink and short signal paths. Sonically Yamaha stays true to its line: natural and balanced rather than flashy.

Connections & radio

Built in are a DAB+/FM/AM tuner with 40 presets and Bluetooth 5.3 with Multipoint (two devices paired at the same time, SBC and AAC codecs). Also included: a phono input for turntables with an MM cartridge, three analog RCA inputs, one RCA output (pre out), a subwoofer output and a headphone output (6.3 mm). Speakers connect to two terminal pairs (A/B).

Plain talk – what you should know

The R200A has no digital inputs (optical/coaxial), no network streaming (no MusicCast/Wi-Fi) and no HDMI connection. If you want to connect your TV digitally or stream via an app, the R-N series is a better fit. If you want radio, Bluetooth, CD and vinyl in a solid, uncomplicated receiver, this is exactly that.

Can I stream with the R200A?
