Ohhh my Goodness !!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My speakers and sub woofer when I purchased them I was happy with the sound but they didn’t just didn’t have the sound that I wanted them to have. We bought this Sony amplifier and all I can say is Oh my goodness the sound that comes out of the speakers is what I was wanting when I bought the speakers. I highly recommend it.

This thing rocks!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have this hooked up to my PS5 and my X90K TV. It sounds so good that my friend who helped my juggle TVs and receivers was blown away by the sound check during the initial setup. ATMOS sounds amazing. Gaming is even more enjoyable when you can hear the guys trying to sneak up behind you. The On-screen display is very handy. The Auto-cal with the included microphone works so good that I didn't need to tweak anything like my last receiver.

Worth Every Penny
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded my old 1080p Sony system, and the difference is incredible—it's like night and day, all while using the same speakers. I highly recommend this system to anyone with an older sound setup who wants to experience Dolby Atmos and 8K visuals. With my 5.1 speaker arrangement, the sound now wholly surrounds me. My living room doesn't have a bad seat; it sounds excellent from every spot.

SONY STR-AN1000
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far the Sony STR-AN1000 has preformed well. I have not had any problems and it works well with my Klipsch speakers. I was able to link my phone and play my music easily. I purchased my receiver when it was on sale.

Great system!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic system for the price. We originally had an Atmis soundbar, but we were not impressed with the surround, even with wireless surround speakers. This was only a little more (we had our front speakers from the old setup), with much better sound spatialization. Even better, we can add additional side or top surrounds and it doesn't block the bottom of the TV like the soundbar did. One con, the connection to the wireless surrounds sometimes gets a little choppy (seems like other Bluetooth devices interfere), but this is easily resolved with recalibration in the system, and the system recognizes when the connection is bad and will suggest recalibration.

Great Addition to My Home Theater Setup I purcha
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the Sony STR-AN1000 last September, and it has been a fantastic addition to my home theater. I use it with my Sony TV, and I’m really impressed with the overall performance. What stands out the most is the audio cable connection between the receiver and the TV, which noticeably enhances the clarity of movie dialogues, making them louder and easier to understand. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase!

I love this receiver!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent receiver. I connected my 4 Sonance in-ceiling speakers and the sound quality is amazing! I also connected my 800w Rocker Shaker Subwoofer, and sounds great. I wasnt sure what port to connected to since the receiver doesn't have a "subwoofer" indication, so I connected it to "center", seems to be working great though.

Posted .Hi JuanM,
Thank you so much for your fantastic 5-star review of the STR-AN1000 receiver! We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying the exceptional sound quality with your Sonance in-ceiling speakers and Rocker Shaker Subwoofer.
To ensure the best performance from your subwoofer, please connect it to the dedicated "SUBWOOFER" output port on the STR-AN1000, rather than the "CENTER" port. For further assistance, feel free to consult the operating instructions for detailed setup guidance. You can find the instructions here:

The perfect Watts
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent amplifier. For me, it's a welcome improvement over 790. This is not to imply the 790 was not good. It's not on the same level is all. The extra watts per channel and set-up provides a much better listing environment. Especially when connected to the sony 7.2 system using two subs moves are amazing.

Wow! This Sony receiver is all you will need
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unbelievable how easy this receiver is to set up. I have two front speakers, two mid speakers, and two rear speakers set up with banana plugs. I also have two Xbox consoles and a Nintendo Switch hooked up. The ethernet port is a great addition so you can bring up the menu on the TV to set everything up. After I hooked up the receiver, it wanted to do an update to the system which worked flawlessly. if you have any doubts, go on YouTube and watch some videos, you will not be disappointed. I highly recommend.

The Ultimate Device for Awesome Surround Theatre !
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.2nd A\V Receiver from Sony. It has exceeded all of my expectations. Set up takes patience, but it is worth it. It is the Brains for all My New Sony Gear: X90L TV, SA-SW5 SubWoofer, Elevation Atmos Speakers, Core Series 5" 3-Way Speakers, Core Series 4" 2-Way Center-Channel Speaker, SA -RS5 Wireless Rear Speakers, UBP-X800M2 4K Player, and Stereo BT Turntable. They all play very well together. The only complaint will be from the Neighbors!!!

Nice easy to use receiver with lots input options.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very nice receiver which has a lot of input options and I needed to use those and so I purchased this receiver and it was a good swap for another receiver which I am going to use upstairs. The receiver is pretty easy to use and so is the remote control. The receiver also has mute and a digital volume and can be turned down and even muted such that the receiver can be turned on in order to be used as a passthrough communication device. I use headphones a lot and so that is very important feature. The receiver takes what seems about 30 seconds to turn on when the system is powered on from a switched conditioner power. Thank you for the receiver Sony and Best Buy.
