    Good receiver and amp!

    This is a great receiver for the money. I like the Bluetooth option and the sound options it has. The menu that shows up on the tv so you can modify the settings is a little dated looking. But once you play with it and get your settings in check you’re good. I haven’t any problems so far with this receiver. The multi speaker channel option outputs great sound to all of my 5 speakers and sub.

    This receiver is fantastic. Plenty of power for my Klipsch speakers. The sound i incredible. Very versatile. Can hook direct to your TV using ARC mode on your smart TV. Easy setup. If you are using a 5.1 surround sound setup, Buy banana plugs for the front speakers. Lots of cool features.

    I didn't need a new amp, but this was just a little bit more money than a good HDMI splitter. Saved me the hassle of running more cables to the TV through the wall. Setup was easy, sound quality is pretty good, volume is a bit touch when used along with our TV soundbar. Makes my old speakers sound good though, now I need to upgrade them to get the most out of this amp.

    I have had this receiver for a bit of time now and it works very well in terms of sound quality and very smooth transitions from one source to another. I wound up connecting these to a set of polk audio speakers and subs and the quality of sound is amazing!

    It's definitely a step up from my old receiver. It integrates really well with my PS4 and Sony TV to address some issues we had with losing video from the PS4 when the TV menu was accessed. Sound quality is also better since it came with a calibration mic that allows the system to automagically balance sound system based on where the mic is placed.

    I bought this receiver because it handles 4K and all the speakers in our room with the TV. It was much easier to set up than I expected, just a few steps with on-screen instructions. The remote is much smaller and easier to use than an older model than I had. It's all I need and not more than I need.

    This stereo reciever is incredibly poweful and crystal clear. The volume goes up to 100 and i havent turned it past 25 yet. The only complaint is the speakers connect to the reciever the old way where u have to actually push the wire through the hole and there is only one banana clip input for two speakers which u can just plug in.

    I bought this system to replace a 10yr old Sony DAV 500 series Theater in a Box that still worked. This model was on sale, and I figured that I couldn't wrong with the Sony brand give the 10 years of use I got of the last one. Here's my review starting with the good: Pros: Setup wasn't extremely complicated All of the HDMI ports are 4K passthrough with HDCP 2.2 Good mix of input types HDMI, RCA, Optical and etc. Cons: 1. Only 4 HDMI inputs...some people need more 2. Hard to find advanced spearker settings 3. Music sounded great, but movies were a different story. I could hear explosions wonderfully, but couldn't hear the actors speaking as clearly as I would have liked. This really showed up whenever I watched anything with a Brittish or Australian cast. 4. Defaulted to Night Mode every time you power the system up 5. Couldn't hear a difference between ProLogic 2 or DTS Bottom line I'm taking it back and getting the Denon 1400

I'm using all speakers connections except the 2nd woofer and the sound is great, as well as the picture quality from DVDs. The HDMI ARC port works very well.
