Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the excellent sound quality, ease of use, and Dolby Atmos capabilities of the 1155W 7.2-Ch. A/V Home Theater Receiver. Many also appreciate the receiver's power and straightforward setup process. While some users noted the unit can get warm during operation and that the menu system could be improved, the positive feedback on sound and ease of use outweighs these concerns for most buyers. The price point is also frequently cited as a positive aspect.

    I bought this unit to replace a Yamaha that I had that went "Belly Up." At first I found the manual a little confusing but with the help of some YouTube offers it became very easy to understand the Amplifiers operations. Now it is easy to operate and produces great sound and a real quality picture on my Sony Bravia TV. Sony builds a terrific product.

    I have a 5.1.2 system setup and it has worked out great. This receiver can take wall mounted speakers and blend them in with front mounted and center speakers, allowing a Dolby Digital Plus surround sound that is a great experience.

    This Sony Receiver is amazing. It has all what you need at home. 2 HDMI output and 5 input. + you can connect to the Wi-Fi and stream music from any music provider and also has Chromecast included. so you ask your google home to play music and it plays it on the receiver. The only thing i can say i dont like to much is that the menu is a little slow when moving around, but nothing to really bother.

    Major flaw is when you use headphones, it shuts off the main audio for others to hear. Also cannot use my wireless speakers due to transmitter must be plugged into headphone's outlet. When using wireless speakers you lose the use of the main sound system.

    After owning the Sony STR-DN1080 for just over a month I like this unit more and more every day. The onscreen menus make Setting up this unit a breeze. I’m using the 7.1 configuration. I read some reviews about this unit not having enough bass. There is an extra setting to achieve more bass. Overall this is the best receiver I have had.

    I replaced the Sony STR-DN1080 with this unit. The sound is considerably better, but the eq on the 1080 are easier to play with it. Another downside is that I can’t no longer control my TV with the remote, on the 1080 there is a button like (shift) function kind of that you hold it down and the rest of the buttons control the tv. I’ve also noticed that when you change the eq the resolution changes.

    I haven't been disappointed. It's easy to set up. With my Sony TV, Playstation and 4K player it has integrated well. I only need to use one controller for everything. I was looking for something easy for entry level AV and this is fantastic. It has more than enough inputs for me. I like having one on the front. The Bluetooth and Airplay are easy to use.
