    Worked great for just over a year then it started shutting down after about 20 minutes. Luckily I had Best Buy's extended warentee and simply brought the system in for a new one. Hopefully we get a good one.

    Good value. I wanted to set up a 2.1 home theater and the only way I could is by using the TV's headphone output into the receiver. It would have been nicer to use the HDMI ARC but 2.1 doesn't seem to be supported.

    I bought it on sale for my brother to upgrade from his old Pioneer. This was is 20× better. Yes it does not have wifi, but for it its supposed to do, it does it great. Good power all around and the subwoofer rocks. High-quality for sure from Sony!

    I am very satisfied with this receiver, the only thing I would change is the connector for the FM antenna. It is a proprietary connector and will not work with any other 3rd party antennas and Sony does not make a powered antenna.

    Great price for a good receiver. I would have given it 5 stars, but I am having difficulty getting any FM stations. I've bought an additional antenna, but there is no way to hook it to the receiver. Still trying to figure it out or I am going to return it and upgrade.

    This meets our needs. Our only issue is that we wish we had purchased a receiver that allowed us to have something different in different rooms. This is not a problem with the receiver, but with ourselves for not knowing we wanted that.

    I wanted this so much but it was not compatible with the Sonos system. The salesman/clerk said it was compatible. I don't know if the salesman just didn't know, aka ignorant, or he was just running up the money I spent. I invested many hours on this Sony receiver and the Sony turntable attempting to pair them together. Additionally, I had the Geek Squad come to my house to connect these two Sony products but they were not compatible. Plus the money in gas and time for three trips to Best Buy, from New Bern, NC to Morehead City, NC, 120 miles total. Ended up returning both.

    I really like this receiver and it should offer the flexibility I may need for all my audio set ups. Only drawback is price - couldn't find a sale, and nearly $300 for this was pushing my budget. As long as it holds up, i won't mind in the end.
