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.

    Great sound but lacked some punch for bigger speakers. Also this does not have enough pre outs for real amplifiers to be connected. Good for a small area without large speakers.

    This receiver met all my needs and got it at a great sales price. Plan to upgrade speakers soon to KLIPSCH as I am currently using 20 yrd old Boston. AN1000 pushes them quite nicely and the on-screen menu is easy to use and calibrate sounds

    Quality product at a competitive price; however, you must go through the main menu to select TV viewing each time unit it powered on. Other units, i.e., Denon and Yamaha remember the last selection upon powering up. I returned the Sony for this reason.
