    Worked well and enjoyed. Only one major issue which support and I couldn't overcome. Unit kept coming on. Disabled CEC and switched outlets. We even left it by itself plugged into it's own outlet with nothing connected and it continued to click as if was turning on. This was a deal breaker as it's in a family members bedroom. My old Harmon-Kardon never had this issue. Other than this issue ( unsure if I got a bad one or ? ) It was a good receiver. Other reviews did notice a little tinny and mostly was at lower levels. I only had for a week due to return policy of 14 days. Didn't give you much time to work out the bugs if they pop up.

    The Sony receiver does not function properly. The zone 3 was not installed properly by the best but installer and does not function at all. Even though the Sony is supposed to have twice as many watts as the 10 year old Yamaha it replaced it has no volume comparatively and very poor sound quality. This may be due to the incomplete setup done by the Best Buy installer

    I’d give this zero stars if possible. Spent almost $1k on this piece of crap. Bought on 21 August 2024. It stopped working in January. Been on my other half for MONTHS to take care of it. Guess who didn’t take care of it. Finally decided to do it myself even though I know nothing about these things. Alas, the 1 year warranty expired 2 days ago.

      Thank you for sharing your experience, CarrieC.

      We are so sorry to hear about the issues you've been having with your STRAN1000 receiver and for the frustration this has caused. This is certainly not the quality or reliability we aim to deliver, and we understand how disappointing it is to have a product stop working so soon after purchase.

      We want to help you get this resolved. While the one-year warranty has just expired, we still recommend contacting our support team directly. They are best equipped to troubleshoot the issue and can explore potential options for you. Please visit this link to connect with them: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=ht

      Thank you again for your valuable feedback and for being a Sony customer.

      Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team Sony_US

    This unit did not work for me. Not strong enough to power my 4 speaker surround sound system. Max volume not loud enough on some streaming channels and even Serius XM music through Dish. I was told by Sony that this is the maximum power I could get from this unit. Best Buy specialist suggested a Denon model.
