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.

    Compared to the Yamaha I had originally, Sony products are much easier to navigate. I would recommend starting with Sony products if you are new to the audio space.

      Hi bbenthusiast,

      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!

    I really enjoy using this receiver. Good sound and can stream to it from my Google Home. However, the automatic sound leveling system never seemed to work. I had to balance the system manually. Would give it 4.5 stars if I could.

    Great little receiver. HDR, Dolby Vision coming, 7.1 or Atmos available, 2 subwoofer outs. No added "sound fields" or extra junk that no one uses. Just a feature packed receiver with great sound and no junk.

    Fine Next Generation Product, One Caveat

    This replaced a similar Sony receiver from about a decade ago and that's the easiest comparison. The sound and specs are great, as expected. The remote-based controls for switching sources and other functions are significantly easier than the earlier model but will look familiar to Sony users. The only problem I had, and still have, is pairing Bluetooth headphones, including Sony's. At minimum, the instructions are vague. I expect to get things to work but the pairing does not work "out of the box". Otherwise recommended, particularly for Sony fans.

    Great home theater reciver with a ton of features. 2 hdmi in and 4 hdmi out. Sound quality is superb. Connections are strong and sturdy holds up nicely. Only downfall is one night watching t.v. the reciver started turning off and on repeatedly causing the tv panel to burn out. Now the t.v. e-arc port will not read any device thus making the 3,500 home theater system useless. Thats another review.

      Hi Rhino,

      We are sorry to hear what happen. The AV receiver will not cause your television panel to burn out because the AV receiver primarily outputs audio. For us to better assist you, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

    Needed something that could pass 4K, HDR and dolby vision. This was perfect. Has Dolby Atmos added to its Sound codecs. Should be able to keep this one around for sometime without upgrading, I hope.
