I would recommend this to a friend 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.

It was a great receiver, but...
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic receiver, if for no other reason than it replaced my aging Sony received that's probably close to 15+ years old. While I was able to get all the glorious 4K HDR that I wanted, I could not for the life of me get the ARC channel to work with my Series 4 Roku. I tried every setting that made sense between the TV and the receiver but could not get it to even see it as a CEC device on the network - though it did see a device connected to it, so I knew that it wasn't a cable issue in that regard. After a week of fumbling with settings, I returned it and am now just using a Yamaha soundbar...with ARC working crystal clear.

Delivers what it says
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My main concern for this was the 4K passthrough. Which I'm happy to say is excellent! My previous device promised that but it was more of an upgrade than passthrough. Plenty if options for speaker sound fine tuning.
I would recommend this to a friendAwsome but with one flaw
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Everything works great and as expected.only complaint is speakers make a single pop sound after shutting down.
