Sony never disappoints
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far it’s been working great. Sound is excellent. Very easy to set up. Some annoying features that you can’t disable like the start up screen that ask what you want to do. But overall it’s excellent

LIMITED but nice AVR
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.PRO: Very nice AVR. Basic, simple but with good/excellent sound. Has the eARC and Media Box @ 4k/120 and 8k/60 which is what I wanted, while others are 4k/60. Great sale price. CON: A subwoofer is required to run the calibration process. System does not allow/provide optional speaker selection in the set-up process. I have a 5.0 system (no Sub). Considering subwoofer options. Recommendation: Depends on your current speaker set-up

Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this receiver. It’s a lot better than the one I had before. I got it due to the Bluetooth capabilities and I was able to use it very easily and attach my phone to it. It also sounded much better coming out of my current speakers- you won’t be disappointed.

Pairs well with Bravia TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced a Denon receiver with this Sony because I needed 2 HDMI outputs. I should have gotten this from the start because I'm using a Bravia TV and the way it's integrated is seamless. The sound quality is better too. I did have some restarting issues but it turns out the first one I got was defective. Exchanging it resolved all the issues I had (freezing, restarting).

Best receiver I’ve ever owned!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this receiver. 360-Sound feature is absolutely amazing. Easy to setup. Best receiver I’ve ever owned (and I’ve owned Yamaha, Onkyo, Denon and Harmon-Kardon over past 20 years). Go get it especially when it’s on sale for $599!

Worthy of the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Surround sound is more than about what formats, but also quality of life as well. Supporting DTSX and Atmos along with having Spotify support and USB music connection, audio has many options to go through. WIth HDMI 2.1 support, both my PS5 and Series X can be connected to my TV as well through the receiver. All the bases I can think of are taken care of with all the HMDI inputs and options.

Had to return due to equipment mismatch.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned this. My speakers are 4 OHM and SONY made it sound like it was a real problem as it doesn't support 4 OHM speakers. Easy to set up and sounded great.

Thanks for the great feedback on the STR-AN1000 receiver. We're glad to hear you're enjoying the sound quality and the seamlessly connection with your BRAVIA TV.

Great receiver, beats a Denon
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great receiver, sounds are amazing. Just remember to set your tower speakers to "small" if you want the bass to kick. Had to Google that for mine to work. The dual HDMIs work great also. I have a large tv to the main and a projector to the second HDMI connection.
