    Replaced a 25 year old ONKYO. Super easy to install. Modern HDMI interfaces are wonderful. Un familiar with ARC HDMI, but very simple to interface to brand new LG 50" I got 3 werks earlier at Best Buy. Setup, programming, and tuning are very user-friendly. Used the manuel a little bit, since unfamiliar with new technology. Love the unit.

    Great A/V receiver that produces 4K quality sound for my 5.1 surround sound system. This replaced my existing Sony receiver which failed after 15+ years of service. This device was easy to setup and has worked great for me so far. This receiver connects to all devices in my home theater and also works great with my universal remote. If you want a great receiver without having to break the bank, I would recommend this device.

    Replaced an old Denon AV receiver that was failing. New technology and features are pleasant improvement. Can't tell much difference in the sound from my old receiver but that was really good. Set up was easy and straightforward. Pleased with the unit so far.

    The set up is easy with the supplied microphone and auto scan to check all speakers and adjust for distance and frequency response. I use the input switching on the TV instead of the one in the receiver. I use fiber optic from the TV to the receiver to transfer the audio. It works great. The receiver does not have a switched AC outlet to connect the sub woofer so I leave the sub woofer on all the time. The time from turning on the receiver to when sound comes out is 8 seconds. This is a little long.

    Purchased as an open box. The receiver was practically brand new other than a scratch on the front. The setup was straight forward and I liked how Sony included a calibration microphone making the setup such a convenience. The home theater is back to life with this receiver.

    Bought this receiver to replace an old unit that had gone belly-up and was amazed at the power and sound that this unit produces! Had to turn down the sub because this one cranks out so much more power than the old one. It's Bluetooth enabled, so I can play tunes stored on my smartphone and that's way cool! Score one of these outstanding receivers - you'll love it!!

    I wanted to replace an old receiver to connect to a modern smart TV and researched most models offered from Best Buy. This device was by far the best value and had all the features I needed. Now I can connect my cell phone via blue tooth, or watch any TV show and play them through my older Bose Acoustimass speakers system. Wow, my teenage boys never heard sound quality so good. Essentially, this Sony receiver gas life to my old system and well worth it.

    I've had an older Sony unit that I bought in the '90s, which still works perfectly, btw, and sounds great. But... no bluetooth, and no HDMI. So I replaced it with this newer Sony and couldn't be happier... Sounds great, interfaces with my LG TV, and turns on automatically when I connect my iPhone via bluetooth.

    Sony makes an excellent surround sound receiver, and this is a prime example!. Movies come to life with prudent placement of the speakers (I have Polk Audio, also purchased from Best Buy years ago). I use the Bluetooth to really get thhe most out of my Amazon Music playlists, the sound is amazing!

    This worked perfectly for what I wanted. I replaced a very old receiver cause I wanted bluetooth capabilities. I was going to buy a bluetooth speaker but then I thought it would be way better to buy this receiver and run my bt through my giant speakers instead of a way lesser bt speaker. Turned out to be an awesome idea! It works great and not overly expensive.

    Great multipurpose receiver. Theater quality sound for movies, nice clean & punchy sound for music. Unit is easy to set up, but there is a small learning curve to use. Many of the receiver's features are not specifically detailed or described in the owners manual; instead they are only available via a document on Sony's website. Beyond that little quirk, its a fantastic unit.
