Excellent investment and Keeping many years
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Huge improvement over the Onkyo I had previously, most notably the soundstage. It tricks me into thinking I have more speakers than I do (currently 5.1) it throws audio in a way I hadn't known possible with the cheap Onkyo. Goes well with my PS5 for surround sound while gaming.

Posted .Hi Tadaka,
We are elated to hear that you are considering staying within the Sony family for your home theater upgrade! The STR-AZ3000ES is a fantastic choice, especially since it features our 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, which creates that immersive, multi-dimensional soundstage you’ve been missing. Transitioning to an ES Series receiver will not only provide the power you're looking for but also restore that signature spatial audio experience.
Thank you for trusting Sony.
Regards,
Dominick

Buy This Now!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a new receiver for a recently deceased one and couldnt be happier! IMO, it interfaces perfectly with my Sony TV and PS5 — and my Apple TV to boot. Great interface and even provides an input for a vinyl player. Top notch mid-tier receiver.

Great audio, interface needs work
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.High quality audio and great performance that you would expect from the brand, with automatic settings for most of your needs. Initial setup was more confusing than it needs to be, and the interface on the device itself is limited. It does have a better visual interface when you connect it though a TV, but it's still clunky.

Great though just a small quirk
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This receiver has worked incredibly well for my home theater setup. The only thing that i find particularly annoying is that when using my tv remote to turn on the system it always brings up the receiver menu which has to be closed by the device record directly.

Posted .Hi Ross,
Thanks for this fantastic 5-stars review of the STR-AN1000 receiver. We're happy to hear that it's working incredibly well for your home theater setup.
We also appreciate you bringing up the specific issue with the receiver menu automatically appearing when you use your TV remote to turn on the system. We understand how this can be a frustrating and annoying interruption to your experience. This behavior is often related to the "Control for HDMI" or "BRAVIA Sync" function, which is designed to allow your TV remote to control other connected devices. While this feature is very convenient for many users, we understand that it can also have unintended side effects.
We recommend checking the settings on your STR-AN1000 to adjust the "Control for HDMI" or "HDMI Settings" to prevent this from happening. You may find an option to disable this specific function, or to change how the system responds to the TV's power-on command. May you need guidance while doing it you can contact our dedicated Sony support at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=ht
Thanks for choosing Sony!
Sincerely,
Jenn | Sony Social Media Team.

Great for ps5
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded from a Sony 5.1 receiver to get Atmos with my ps5/4k Blu-ray’s as well as 120hz pass through. Works great and is well worth the upgrade if you’re on the fence like I was. The upgrade interface is great as well.
