    Purchased this reciever as a replacement for a denon unit in my home theater. Not the loadest or cleanest unit but certainly acceptable for the price. No real negatives so far. Bluetooth connectivity works well with apple or android devi es. Pleased with my purchase. Good value.

    My review would have been 5 stars, but the first one we brought home did not work and we had to return. The return was trouble free but it is an 1 hour drive each way. We enjoy the receiver.

    Receiver looks very high class for the price but only downside is wish they have banana plug option for all the channels. And Best Buy should not say item will be delivered by the end of day if they can’t do it. My item got delayed by day which was frustrating.

    I'm really happy with this receiver. The ONLY issue I have is that my Roku flickers when connected, but that is the Roku's problem, not the receiver's. I was looking for something inexpensive but still had 4K and 4 HDMI inputs, and this fits the need.

    Replaced a system that I've been using for about 5 years. Didn't snap that the system was messing with my 4k resolution. Now, picture and sound are fantastic. Easy install. System menu is really low end though. Could be more user friendly.

    Sony-725W 5.2-Ch Hi-Res $K Ulta HD Receiver

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    i was very excited when I bought this Sony 725w receiver. After it arrived I hooked it up and tested it. I was disappointed at the volume level. My older receiver rated at 120w per channel had much more volume out put than this Sony receiver rated at 145w. The Sony receiver also does not have tone controls. The bass cannot be increased. It hardly pushed bass response thru my 15" woofers. I really did like the HDMI features and the blue tooth, but that did not compensate for the inadequacies of low power and lack of tone controls. I returned this receiver.

      We do apologize for the inconvenience. We recommend connecting wired speakers with a nominal impedance of 6 ohms to 16 ohms for a better audio experience. Please be assured we take this feedback very seriously and continuously strive to improve our products.
