Works well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only thing keeping this from being a five star rating is that it only comes in black. What is with the 80’s motif that has taken over the industry? Give us some options! White, silver, something other than the big black box sitting in my living room.

I like it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had 2 receivers already but although they worked well, and were both SONY, they were about 12 to 15 years old. For my new house I wanted something new with optical input, etc. I'm very happy with this new reciever.

Easy setup, good bang for the buck!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall setup was easy. Bluetooth works well and has considerable range. The lowest Bluetooth model came with a few extra features I did not need. Also the FM receiver wire is a little lackluster.

Great Feature Rich Reciever

Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a receiver for my 5.1 surround sound living room which had a minimum of 2 HDMI in-ports and 1 HDMI out for my 4K TV.

No Complements. Dead HDMI Out.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.HDMI out would sometimes not link with a Sony ARC compatible TV and eventually HDMI out would send audio only-no video. Main purpose of this purchase was to improve movie watching but also be able to watch TV in pass-through mode (I.e. TV speaker only). This seemed like a good concept-entry level receiver with HDMI switching/pass through, and it did sound good In a small room paired with a center, R, and L when it worked. Best Buy wouldn’t exchange due to timing but Geek Squad took it in and is sending to Sony for warranty service. Not a good value with all the wasted time. TL/DR: HDMI Out dead. BB sent back to Sony for repair.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had our receiver in the garage go out so we needed an emergency replacement at a low cost. They didn’t have the one we wanted so this is what we grabbed. It’s got everything we needed and works so far.

Budget product.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It makes a low clanging sound when it's in the mood to do so. That would matter to me if I intended to run the device at a low volume, as an apartment-dweller might wish to do. It syncs well with my tablet for playing Pandora. There is no pre-amp connection as certain turntables would require. It gets better FM reception than my previous receiver. There is no AM tuner. Look at the types of connections on the back and compare to your needs before buying this.
