This little receiver packs a punch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This receiver has a very classic look. As soon as you power it on, the set up begins on screen. Each time a movie is player through the DVD player, it calibrates to ensure you are receiving the best sound. Low profile design to fit the smallest spaces. I bought this for my neighbor and will likely be purchasing one for myself.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Receiver performs exponentially great in all areas of surround sound. The bluetooth function is easy to work with and as well as connecting speakers. The calibrating microphone that connects to it also is a nice touch that sony added.

Sony 725W 4K Receiver
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old Sony receiver lasted 34 years. I can only hope this new one will do the same. Easy set up and running a Boston sub woofer with Boston speakers. Sound is very clear and crisp. Plenty of power for any situation. Highly recommend !

Good for the price, but has an annoying feature!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall not bad its a good receiver for what your paying for. I purchased this primarily due to price as my very old receiver died out after about 20 years (also sony). Ive been using sony receivers for quite some time so decided to keep the brand going. However, there is an issue with ARC that users need to know about. When using ARC everytime you turn on your system you get a pop up menu to select what you are using the receiver for. No way of turning this off and is quite annoying. Sony says this is by design and no way of turning it off other than disabling ARC which then defeats the purpose of using the Smart features like Netflix, Disney+, Hulu etc. I've gotten used to just selecting the options every time i turn on my system but surely would have probably gone with another brand if I would have known this! VERY ANNOYING FEATURE! Regardless of that the receiver is actually very good, but sony needs to find a way of letting us turn that off!

Super easy to use…. But Gets very hot.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wish I could give 5 stars, but that is still to be determained. I love how simple this receiver is… super simple…. But the first time I used it for a “music” night it shut off all by itself. When I approached it I felt heat… and when I touched it, it was hot enough to burn. Not sure if this is normal or not… will be calling about the issue. My have been used for 3-5 hours total. If the heat is normal, I do not expect this receiver to last long. But I have not called them yet to find out.

Posted .Hi Nicki,
We're sorry to hear what happen. Check that the receiver is not covered and ventilation holes are not blocked. We also recommend using speaker wires that are anywhere between 12 to 16 gauge. These are most commonly used for connecting speakers to an amplifier or an AV receiver. If you need further assistance, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Great receiver to replace old Onkyo that died
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great with my sony x900h tv, recognized the receiver instantly and basically set itself up. E-arc works great for xbox, e-arc from receiver to tv e-arc hdmi plug #3, hdmi #4 to xbox and it figures out all the rest itself, sounds great

Excellent A/V Receiver Value
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony STRH590-725W 5.2 CH HiRes 4K: This unit delivers very good 5.1 Audio to HT system. Easy setup program with included microphone. I was surprised at the improvement in the Video processing over the previous older Pioneer unit. For this price point and power rating highly recommended.
I would recommend this to a friendNice unit, Good Value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works as advertised. Easy to set up. Subtracted one star because there is a minor feature I can't get to work (automatic switching to exterior speakers in TV mode). Probably operator error on my part or incompatibility with my TV. Overall very nice unit. Good sound.

To switch the audio from AV receiver to TV speakers. You need to configure it under TV settings, not in the AV receiver settings.

Great Receiver!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great receiver! Upgraded from my 1990 Kenwood receiver and what a HUGE improvement! Love the Bluetooth feature! I can walk outside and change from Pandora to XM on my phone and have it play in my outdoor speakers without leaving my lawn chair!

good sound quality and surround sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good sound quality for the price and can power pretty big speakers and get decently loud. Bluetooth is great! However keep in mind it doesnt have features like chromecast or apple air play that are in some of the higher end devices do that allow for even better sound quality than bluetooth.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Price was right. Easy set up once you read directions. Lots of functions to play with. And more than enough connections on back of receiver for you to use. And it more than enough handles the power for the surround sound speakers I purchased.

Great for movie night or all your audio needs
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an awesome upgrade to the previous reciever we had. The sound is clear and does what it should and the bluetooth connectivity is simple. Would definitely buy again. My brother actually picked up the same reciever because he liked ours so much.

Affordable, easy setup, great sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Affordable, and smaller than the model it replaced (HD700). Setup was a breeze and took just minutes. Sounds great, easy bluetooth pairing and playback. OSD works great. I've no need for 7.1 sound at the moment, so it was a perfect fit for me.

Love it and recommend it
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is definitely an upgrade from my previous stereo. I feel this offers everything needed at this price point. Navigating the setup menu and features is really simple with just the remote and receiver display. Though i haven't connected this to anything other than music. Running it with a Sony subwoofer and some older Polk Audio tsi200 bookshelf speakers. As long as the quality lasts, i have zero interest in upgrading this receiver and it definitely meets and exceeds my needs

Good receiver but still took it back
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing wrong with this one, except a few days later another Sony went on sale that was a net $20 more but a 7.2 system with more power. This unit is great if you are just going to have front surround, where it shines. I did not fully appreciate the 5.1 from it, and I want both to be very good.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old receiver went out and was in much need of a new one anyhow but this one works a whole lot better and smoother. A much needed upgrade. Love all of the HDMI ports for home theatre. Set it up with some Polk Audio bookshelf speakers at the moment but want something with bigger sound eventually. Love having a remote to switch inputs and adjust the sounds. It also looks nicer as it is a smaller, more sleek design. Super convenient for storage and in ease of use.
