Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great receiver and easy to operate. I have been using this for over 9 months now and has worked flawlessly.

sounds great, could have a little bit more power, but I do have a large room, maybe better for a little small room

I bought this to replace an Onkyo 7.1 theater system. It has been wonderful. Recently added a Sony 4k tv and they automatically connected and now act as ONE unit. Sound is amazing, auto sensing for inputs allows for optimum sound. Great purchase

I don't like units that have to sit on top of the media console and the older Onkyo that I had was too big and would overheat if it was put within the console, so I swapped it out for a Marantz NR1508, which is a slim profile unit. I didn't think that Marantz compared to the Onkyo but wasn't sure if it was just my own bias. A few month later, my wife commented that she thought the sound didn't have enough power. For her to comment on that was enough for me to research and swap out the Marantz. I had narrowed it down to a different Onkyo or this Sony. Ultimately I went with the Sony because after watching set up videos, I liked the onscreen menu options that Sony has. It sounds just as good as the previous Onkyo but is still slim enough to fit within the console to give the clean look I was hoping to achieve. Setup was fast and easy and I feel as though a lot of the options it has helps future proof us if we decide to upgrade other components down the road.

Hooked together with 75 in Sony Bravia - Work great together. Not too pricey either. gets great reviews online.

It’s not a $3k receiver or like buying separates with a pre-amp, etc so don’t expect it to perform to that level. But it has a lot of power, features and sounds very good. I am watching a 4K movie with HDR that is being being through it to a new Sony TV and it’s awesome. A good receiver at a good price point!

Has all the latest network bells and whistles, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Menus are simple and easily understood. The sound is great at all volume levels. My only minor complaint is the lag time in using the “home” menus.

I have used a variety of electronics over the past 40 years, with A/V tuners being a popular item on my list. In my opinion, Sony has always made leading edge tuners that are high reliability and high quality. This one is high quality as well as easy to use and set up.

Worth the money would buy again. Love it. I plug in all my tv and game systems into it so only one hdmi cable

Excellent receiver. Easy to use and sounds great. No issues during setup and works great with my TV’s eARC connection. Auto-calibration needed some post calibration to reduce over emphasis on bass and low on center channel. Overall a solid receiver.

Much more powerful than the entry-level Sony AVRs, this one does everything I need -- effortlessly. Powering 2 Bowers and Wilkins towers, 2 700 series Surrounds, and 1 REL Subwoofer is easily hanldled. User interface is easy to use as well! Great unit!!

There's not a lot of built-in music app. There's a lag in accessing home screen. Sounds fantastic on movies with Bose speakers.

Easy to set up, good sound quality, plenty of watts

Thew Sony receiverworks as advertised. The sound is adjustable depending on your taste. I did'nt have any difficulty setting it up. The manual is very clear, if you follow the instructions and read carefully you won't have any issues.

Great Bluetooth Options ( Receive or Transmit) Handles Hi-Res music files, Good Home Theater options, A+

Great system highly recommended, sound quality for speakers is grand. Be sure to buy a sub woofer though

Great price for a powerful receiver. Very easy to set up with an intuitive auto-calibration. Worked first time right out of the box with all my seven speakers and a subwoofer. The sound is awesome for both movies and music.

Had this and my wall speakers installed and its great. I actually have two of these products in my home and they are great. It was recommended by a friend. Very easy to set up and use and one of the most reasonably priced with good quality

This receiver has worked great so far. It was very easy to set up with the microphone supplied to calibrate all of the speakers. It was much easier and works far better than a Denon receiver that it replaced. I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Great equipment and easy to set up and install but there seems to be a decent amount of options that are hard to navigate and determine if they are even applicable for my setup. It works great with my Older 4K Sony Bravia and provides the power I need for my Klipsch reference speaker surround system.
