Buggy. Spotify integration is terrible, won't find devices. No track timeline/scroll bar to let you know where you are on the track. No Windows integration. No forums. On turning on the app, the last track played will automatically start. Track search could be improved... Serious improvements are needed if Yamaha wants to be a credible alternative to Sonos. MusicCast products are great, but the app lets them down. Judging by the reviews Yamaha don't care.

Does what it's supposed to, just in a quite clunky way. Tidal control is woeful in comparison to Spotify, but I expect that's down to Tidal rather than Yamaha. Not sure if the app radio favourites are supposed to sync with the amp, but they don't for me. I understand that Yamaha have an interest in selling more MusicCast units, but better integration with Chromecast or similar wouldn't go amiss. The RN602 sounds great though.

The idea is great and the sound quality is fine. However the sound signal is unreliable. It randomly loses bluetooth, web radio and cast signal. Very frustrating because it just stops playing in the middle of your favorite tune etc. Spotify streaming is better. No support from Yamaha beyond the website, so unable to fix. Wish I'd gone for Sonos.
