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.

I would recommend this to a friendNice unit, problems with installation
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced a Denon unit with this open-box Sony. The Sony is nice, has great features but I am not able to install my Amazon Fire cube with it. I spoke with Sony and they suggested the unit was defective. I tried to get Best Buy support on the phone and chat, but I assume they are not available due to the COVID-19 issues. I don't want to complain now so I did a work-around and will fix it after the pandemic is done. If Best Buy fixes it, I'll gladly change my review.

Posted .Hi dagger1z,
Great! We're glad that the STRDN1080 receiver is perfect for your setup. 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! Thanks for choosing Sony!

Thank you for the feedback. You might want to check the speaker pattern if it's correct. Also, we recommend using speaker wires that are anywhere between 12 to 16 gauge are most commonly used for connecting AV receivers. 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.

Highly recommend!

It decodes all the digital codes from ITS and Dolby including DTSX and Dolby Atmos if you have 7.2 speakers. There is plenty of power to drive your speakers.

Got a bargain on this as open box certified!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had to buy a new TV, so 4K Hisense H8F. Only problem was our AVR was no longer compatible with the new TV. This AVR Works great with the TV, our Roku and our old speakers!
