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.

    Powerful receiver with lots of configuration options, which takes a while to learn your way around. It sometimes has trouble switching screens when user input requires it. I tried moving it around in case it was a remote beam blockage, but it didn’t help. Once configured it works well. It’s definitly not for audiofiles as I have a good set of old Klipsch speakers set up on it, but still delivers some hiss, filtering could be better.

      Hi Lovemywife,

      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!

    This is a Great Home Theater! I upgraded from a Onkyo 5.1, which was very old and finaly gave out. I was wanting to stay with Onkyo, but they had nothing I liked, so I chose this Sony. Good Choice! It's taken a while to get the settings right, but it gives you wide flexibility to adjust everything to your liking! Very good system for this price range!!

    I had to replace an older Harmon Kardon AVR and this new Sony rocks. The sound seems to be much crisper. Love the fact that I can connect my iPhone or wireless Beats headphones via bluetooth. Although, connecting the headphones was much more difficult...the manual wasn't clear on all the steps. The auto speaker set up is very easy to use and has made the surround sound experience better as well.
