The best budget receiver that plays both dolby atmos and dts-x surrond sound. Great build, feels and looks like its made from solid quality material.

Posted .Hi Fred,
Thanks for sharing your experience so far with your new STRDN1080 7.2 ch. Dolby Atmos Wi-Fi Network AV Receiver. You’re now able to experience true home theater sound without limitations. Once you take advantage of Dolby Atmos and DTS:X object-based surround sound, combined with 4K HDR and HDCP 2.2 support, there is no going back! Be sure to take advantage of the flexibility of 6- in/2-out HDMI and multi-room listening, plus voice control powered by Google Home. Don’t forget our Phantom rear surround channels can transform your five-channel system into a seven- channel system too!
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Zone 2 Not As Expected
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this unit strictly because it had a dedicated amp powered “ZONE 2”. What is not clear up front is that the “ZONE 2” when powered cuts off power to “SURROUND BACK/HEIGHT” thus not allowing you to enable full 7.1 and a separate zone at the same time. What is also not clear when using “ZONE 2”, you are unable to receive audio from HDMI inputs for pass thru to “ZONE 2”. This can only be achieved by using the additional analog RCA inputs that are included on the amp. All that being said, it is a cost efficient, powerful unit, compared to the other models on the shelf beside it but I should have done more research in its capabilities.

Posted .Hi Matt, We appreciate the feedback. We would like to apologize if the multi-zone feature of the unit did not meet your expectations. Unfortunately, When speakers are connected to both the SPEAKERS SURROUND BACK/HEIGHT terminals and SPEAKERS ZONE 2 terminals, you can only set which speakers are given priority. And also, Sound is not available from devices connected to the HDMI IN jacks in when using Zone 2. Please refer to this link for more information about the multizone feature of your unit: https://helpguide.sony.net/ha/strdn108/v1/en/contents/TP0001224849.html -Sam

Great Receiver!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great system and super easy to hookup. The onscreen setup for speakers is super easy to use to get the best sound out of the speaker setup you have. Super easy to get multiple different inputs setup.

Excellent receiver for home theater
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with this receiver, which purchased as part of an upgrade to my home theater system and the addition of a 4K smart TV.

Good Starter unit
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to set up. The sound was good for the price. I replaced an old Yamaha analog receiver. I think the Yamaha was a stronger. So I spent the extra money and got another brand receiver

Great sound!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was an upgrade from a 15 year old Onkyo receiver that didn't have HDMI or many other features. The ARC, bluetooth, and Chromecast features have made a huge difference in my home audio experience!

Solid performer and great sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This amp in the STR-DN product line has a great feature set and excellent sound quality. The design of the remote is not that great and it is not comfortable to use, but that is easily solved by just using a different remote.

Perfect for Bedroom
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Use this with 2 B&W speakers and 2 Sony Hi-Res Speakers instead of soundbar for bedroom tv. A little bulky but the sound is spectacular. Had speakers laying around gathering dust. Why not drive them??

A fatal flaw
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the receiver about a week ago. I researched the features and it met all my requirements. The set up was fairly easy and I was able to test everything the unit had to offer. It all worked flawlessly, at least for a few days. Unfortunately then it developed a fatal flaw, namely once in a while it would stop sending video signal through the HDMI cable to my television set. A day later the signal loss would happen regularly and exactly every 20 minutes. Called Sony support and they suggested resetting the receiver. All the setup work including network, bluetooth, calibration and so on would have to be done again. I was told that maybe the HDMI connection issue might not manifest itself again, or maybe there was a glitch in the unit. Obviously I returned the unit. Too bad because I loved the features, the sound quality and the video.

Future proof receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'll be honest and admit this receiver has more features than I know what to do with so far. My surround sounds great. I installed it myself and it looks nice. Only about a month old to me but no issues.
