    This receiver has plenty of power. It has very good frequency response without distortion. All the usual connections are found on the rear of the unit. So, you can connect it to almost anything. The separation between speakers is awesome. It has a small, but easy to use remote control. If you're looking for an economical answer to your audio needs and don't want to skimp on features, this one is difficult to beat.

    Crystal clear sound, video and not overly expensive. The 4k Upscale really enhanced the video quality. I had purchased a previous version of this almost 10 years ago and still works but needed something with newer technology. The Bluetooth and 4k upscaler are amazing.

    This receiver is well worth the dollars spent. I have really old Advent speakers and was previously using a dated Yamaha receiver. Upgraded to this Sony and am very happy so far. This was an extremely easy purchase process through Best Buy. My second online purchase from Best Buy in less than a year. Great job by this company. I will definitely be a return customer for my next electronics purchase.

    I have this connected to an older HD television that only had 2 HDMI ports. Now everything goes through the receiver and then is displayed on the TV. The receiver passes through the signal even when off so I only need to turn on the receiver to change the input for the TV. Initially I couldn’t figure out how to have the audio only from the TV speakers, but eventually found that option in the settings.
