    Great start into Atmos

    The Sony STR‑AN1000 has been a killer upgrade and an ideal entry point into Dolby Atmos. It delivers the kind of immersive sound most “starter” receivers only hint at. With your 5.1.2 setup, the height effects are clean, directional, and surprisingly convincing — overhead pans actually feel overhead, not just “somewhere up front.” Sony’s DCAC IX calibration does serious work. Dialogue gets clearer, bass tightens up, and the whole soundstage opens wider than your room should allow. Movies instantly feel more cinematic, with Atmos effects floating around you and action scenes hitting harder than expected from a mid‑tier receiver. Gaming on PS5 is where the AN1000 really flexes. Feeding it Linear PCM gives you pinpoint positional audio, and the HDMI 2.1 support means you get full 4K/120 performance without compromise. Even everyday TV and streaming benefit — the AN1000 adds depth and clarity to basic stereo content without sounding artificial. What makes this receiver shine is how effortlessly it fits into your setup. eARC works flawlessly, switching inputs is smooth, and everything just feels dialed‑in. For a first Atmos receiver, it’s powerful, modern, and genuinely transformative. A clean, affordable way to make movies, games, and regular shows feel brand new.

    Best receiver ever owned

    This is an excellent receiver! I paired it with the wireless Sony 200 subwoofer and it works perfectly with my 26 year old Bose Accoustimass 10 wired surround sound speakers. The clarity and sound is outstanding after only calibrating once.

  • Does the RCA upscale inputs such as a Wii and a PS2? Or would it be better to buy something that upscales it and then put it in through HDMI?

    Hi Neel, Great question! The STRAN1000 will not upscale RCA input. You would have to use an HDMI Cable from the device. We can't guarantee that third party adapters will work correctly with the product. Hope this helps. Erin Experience breathtaking 8K video and immersive 3D audio with our new 7.2-channel 8K receiver.
