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.

    Bought this receiver looking forward to using it just to have it be the 3rd Sony product I've bought at best buy to be defective. Starting to second guess buying the Sony brand

    Read multiple reviews online listing this as on of the top rated receivers in my price range. Very pleased with it so far. Paired with a Sony X900E 4K television and Sony 4K blu ray player, as well as Cox DVR cable box. Set up the hdmi ARC. Pretty seamless integration. Transitions from mode to mode very well. Sounds output is good speaker calibration and set up were easy.

    Good sound but terrible FM reception

    This would be a great receiver if it had FM reception. I really wanted to like this receiver but the FM is terrible. I returned it and tried second unit and the FM was worse than the first unit. It uses a simple wire antenna with a proprietary connector. If it had a standard coaxial connector reception might have been improved with a better antenna but I doubt it. The receiver produces very good sound and the software is very good. If you don't intend to listen to FM you will love it. I purchased a Pioneer unit which has great sound and great FM reception.

    Great budget-friendly 4k60, Atmos AVR!

    One of the best budget-friendly 4k60, Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision, and HDR capable receivers. Easy to set up and use. Immersive 5.1.2 sound stage with proper speaker setup. Works well with everything I've thrown at it. Can even accept Atmos via the ARC if your TV is properly set up to pass the signal.

      Hi xbradx75,

      Awesome! Thank you for the 5-star rating. 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 purchased this unit to upgrade my older SONY receiver (to obtain 4K capability). Have been pleased with every aspect of the unit but one. You can rename an input and while it appears on the screen when selecting to change the input it is not reflected in the display on the unit itself. I can live with this but wanted to point it out for others.

    In all fairness for the price it’s okay. Within one week one HDMI failed. It does have a nice UI and is easy to set up. There is better units at or for a little more money. I did return the unit and purchased another brand.
