Second time buyer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

A Great Receiver at a Great Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Multiply your HDMI connections
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Decent Entry Level
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this for a great deal so I'm not disappointed, it's ok. My old reciever (also a sony) started loosing channels so I got this as a stop gap. It works the setup is easy, and it does everything I need it to do. I was concerned about the wattage per channel, most speakers have a 8 ohm impedance (which is what the reciever is expecting), the Martin Logans I paired it with has a lower impedance 4 to 6 ohms which can boost the apparent wattage. I haven't noticed any issues other then just having to keep the volume down. Not sure if it is effecting the sound quality or not, I will only know that when I upgrade it later on. As an entry level device I can recommend it, but if your looking to pair it with quality audio you'll be better off I feel looking at something from Denon.

Perfect starter home receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This stereo has definitely been around awhile (I'm guessing late 2000s) and is missing a few quality comforts such as airplay. This does not negate such an amazing sounding receiver though and seems to bring your Livingroom to life all around you. Overall this is perfect if your not looking for the best but still want amazing quality.

Decent, but Could Do Without the Popping
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a decent, basic HT receiver that does it's job. My biggest issue is it constantly "pops" when switching channels or inputs. Sound is fine for basic movie watching. 4k pass through doesn't seem to negatively affect the image.
