Good 5 channel amp with 4K pass through.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My 2011 Marantz amplifier did not support the 4K required by my recently acquired 75" TV. This amp did the trick. I wanted a shorter in height amp and one that supported the 5 speakers I already had in place. I feel I lucked out with this purchase.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only problem so far: When I use our DIRECTV remote to turn on the TV, the DIRECTV box and the AV receiver, the receiver shows SAT/CATV for a few seconds then changes to TV and the sound is lost. I have to manually change it back to SAT/CATV.

Good amp for the price.

Good for it's size
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does it's job, biggest perk for me was it's size so I can fit it into my TV Console. Doesn't sound as good as my secondhand Pioneer SC-81 but for the price I didn't expect it to.

Fits myneed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just needed something basic for my shop. This more than meets my needs. Greats value for the price. I’m a Sony fan and not disappointed with my purchase. That’s why I look at the Sony product first when I’m in the market for electronics.
I would recommend this to a friendgood receiver once setup is done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great audio and video presentation. A slightly clunky setup is the only thing holding this recommendation from 5 stars. Enabling ARC and HDR settings are deeply buried on menu system that is not shown on TV but on receiver display. Other than that, works great.

Great Starter Unit
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Onkyo receiver went out this summer (2022). I was waiting for Black Friday to replace. The Onkyo WAS a higher end unit, so the comparison isn't as fair. Although I did purchase it on Black Friday in 2015 (so it's 7 years older). The other unit was so far advanced compared to this new unit, that I ended up getting the Onkyo fixed and returned this. I suppose when I'm ready to replace again, I'll have to bite the bullet and spend closer to $1K to get an equivalent to what I have.
