    Bought this for my husband since he’s a technical guru when it comes to sound systems and wiring. He used this receiver to connect all his devices in his man cave. He had higher expectations but did give it an average rating.

    Sony has improved upon its quality value ratio with this integrated unit, sounding more like a separate pre-amplifier, and a separate amplifier set-up.

    Beautiful sound, but absolutely gutless. Overloads at level 50 out of 73. I would take it out and blast it with a shotgun, but I paid too much money for it. Hoping Best Buy will let me exchange it for something better.

      Hi DisssatisfiewSonyreceiver,

      We're sorry to hear what happen. We also recommend using speaker wires that are anywhere between 12 to 16 gauge. These are most commonly used for connecting speakers to an amplifier or an AV receiver.

    Bought this to replace an older receiver. Loud enough for most purposes. Just be warned the 4k HDR pass through limits your signal to 24 fps, which stinks for gaming.

    This receiver has an on screen display that won’t go away on its own every time you turn it on. It won’t turn off with my Xfinity remote and requires me to have 2 remotes. Does everything else well, nothing exciting.

    It's good receiver for the money - that is, it does not have the most powerful amplifier that you may need if, for example, you're going to listen the cannon fire during the "1812 Overture" or the like. It may clip. On the other hand, it performs very well and is, I think, a good product for the amount of money it costs.

      Hi TediRuxpn,

      Thanks for sharing this honest. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the on-screen displays. Please refer to the information below if the home menu of the connected soundbar or A/V receiver displays on the TV when you switching to view content from other connected devices, and the HDMI devices are connected to the soundbar or receiver, and the soundbar or receiver is connected to the TV using an HDMI cable to the HDMI eARC/ARC port.

      Make sure that all HDMI devices connected have HDMI Control enabled. If all devices have HDMI Control enabled:
      If power is turned on from a device (such as a Blu-ray Disc player), then the soundbar or receiver and the TV turn on, and the TV switches to the proper input to view the menu or content.
      By design and normal operation, soundbars and receivers identify the connected HDMI device, and the content (including the menu display) passes through to the TV.

      Despite your concern, we're glad you like amazing sound quality. Sounds like you’ve upgraded your home entertainment system to work with the latest 4K TV’s and HDR sources. Equipped with 4 HDMI inputs, Bluetooth and a host of advanced features, your new receiver is ready for whatever and wherever your content takes you. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US
