Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the amazing sound quality, ease of use, and straightforward setup of the STR-AN1000 receiver. Its support for Dolby Atmos, ample power, and multiple connectivity options are also appreciated. However, some users find the remote to be lacking due to its unlighted design. Overall, the receiver is considered a great value for its price.

    Need a tv to set it up. Having bluetooth as a buried item is a bit of a nuisance. Amp is powerful. FM radio doesn’t sound very good. Price was right.

    The first we bought was defective and we had to exchange it. We had four Geek Squad techs out and now it seems to be working. I would of gave it a five star but for all the hassle

    Receiver does the job. Used to a bit higher “level” of product. It’s a little weird getting around and setting up. It’s meant for beginners into HT world. Does the job so no complaint.
