Question: I have a Yamaha R-S700 receiver.  My Ipod dock YDS-11 Model stopped working.  The YDS-12BC seems to have  replaced the YDS-11.  Can I use it with my receiver R-S700?
Document: Despite other reviewers' with problems mine has worked great. I am using it with a 5th generation iPod and a brand new Yamaha R-S300 stereo receiver. Mostly controlling it with the receiver's remote, but I haven't had any issues using the touch dial on the iPod itself either. I am using the appropriate adapter insert for my iPod and it seems to support the iPod just fine. Anyway, working fine for me.
Paired this YDS-12 iPod dock with a Yamaha R-S700 receiver. Works like a champ! As other reviewer(s) stated, the user manual is pretty worthless, however, the instructions from the receiver did help some. It took a little bit of playing to figure a couple things out as far as controling the iPod once it is docked. You control the iPod from the receiver remote control, not the iPod. However, it was plug, play and listen!!
I purchased this for my Yamaha RX-V567. I did not fully understand from the other reviews the features and limitations of this dock, so I will try to explain it clearly here. You can find the "User Guide" on-line, but it is utterly useless - in 11 different languages.The YDS-12 connects to your Yamaha receiver through a proprietary connector. This connector has upwards of 60 pins, yet the device has very few features.
I replaced an old YDS-10 with this product that started producing intermittent sound. Plug and play as advertised in my old Yamaha  receiver.
This dock was required to play tunes from my iPod through my receiver as there was no USB input on my Yamaha R-S500BL receiver. The receiver was perfect otherwise, so I paid the extra for this dock. The dock itself works fine.
Yamaha YDS-12BL iPod Dock -Black it's ok I thought it would do more have not been able to really use it
I bought the YDS-12BL for my Yamaha HTR-6140, fully prepared to return it, because I had NO info as to whether it would work on my model receiver - but it DOES work as described. Having read other reviews, I'm pretty sure the negative ones are due mostly to the fact that there are virtualy no useful instructions included ( minus one star), so you're left to figure it out on your own, and some reviewers simply didn't set theirs up correctly.
i bought this sixteen months ago and all of the sudden it stopped working. One year warranty would not buy another, you can hook up from you apple devise headphone jack with a splitter to line one or two and use the apple charger that came with the phone and save your cash!
I have Yamaha receiver and purchased this dock for the simple interface. Works very well. Simple to use. Able to use with remote and on-screen display. Much better than just a simple ipod connect.
I purchased a Yamaha YHT-S400 with SR-300 Soundbar and NS-BR300 Receiver with built in woofer a couple of years ago and wanted to get the iPod dock but never wanted to shell out the $100 Yamaha wanted for it. Then I discovered it on Amazon and even better discovered the newer compatible version dock (YDS-12BL) on Amazon for only about $32. This was a great buy!
Answer: Yes I have the YDS-12BL and It works well with my R-S700 receiver.
