Don't use them very often, but we had the KLH laying around and then were given the Yamaha unit to sell at a yard sale or keep. One of them is going to goodwill today, the other will be kept, used to listen to the radio or a record, might even rearrange furniture so it can be connected to the tv and played out of a pair of ancient pioneer cs-700g speakers

Yamaha rx-v495
from this page, an actual review
http://www.hometheatermag.com/receivers/8/index1.html
"The $399 RX-V495 from Yamaha is rated at 70-watts per channel and features Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital processing, but no DTS processing. All of the usual analog inputs and outputs are provided, including a 6-channel input for use with a DTS processor or a DVD-Audio machine, (which are finally available). As expected on such an inexpensive receiver, digital inputs are sparse, with only one coaxial digital input and two Toslink optical inputs. Speaker connections are made via UL-approved collars for the left and right main speakers, and the center and surround speakers are connected using spring clips. I'm a little disappointed that Yamaha chose to go with spring clips for the other channels, seeing as how Kenwood was able to put all UL-approved collars on their receiver for 50 bucks less. The remote for the Yamaha is a skinny little thing that can be set up to run other components in your system, like a DVD or CD player. Although I fumbled around with it for a bit (because of its size), I found it fully functional and not at all hard to use."

"I have a pr of 3 way Pioneer CS-700G speakers with a 12" woofer, 4.75" midrange, and multi-cellular horn tweeter. They have rotational level controls for both midrange and tweeter.
Even though they''re just over 30 years old, my first stereo speakers by the way, still sound great, very efficient, and can kick ass."
