Yamaha 377 v/s Yamaha 477

[abhimanyuk]

Hi members,

I am confused between going for the 377 or 477.

How many of you'll actually use the internet radio and how does it work (setup / etc ).

Is it inbuilt wifi or do you have to connect a lan wire? is there scope for an external attachment can make it wifi or is lan cable the only option?

Thanking you in anticipation

Hi,

I have yamaha rx 477. Main difference between 377 & 477 is HDMI passthrough and network receiver. Out of these, I like hdmi passthrough feature for which you no need to on your receiver when you are not watching HD content like watching news. All your devices simply can be connected to your receiver.
I was not using much network feature. There is no wifi built in. You need to connect by lan cable. I heard you can connect by using logitech wifi adapter or yamaha wifi adapters.
