Meets Our Family Needs
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was purchased as an inexpensive upgrade to an older Onkyo receiver with no HDMI ports. Does the job nicely. My wife loves that the receiver will turn on automatically when playing music from her phone via Bluetooth. Bonus... have been able to better sync audio between receiver and tv. Not a big fan of the remote... volume button doesn't always react. However as I use other universal remotes, its not an issue for me.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.good for the price - does the job, had to use it for my ceiling-inbuilt speakers and it makes them work just fine, distributes the sound well between the front and rear speakers. has some nice hall/stadium/jazz settings for different output. Makes a weird and loud click sound when it's turned on but it's okay I guess. would recommend to others who are looking at making a basic set of speakers work

Decent cheap receiver for home theater
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you want to build a home theater system on a budget, this fits the bill. Just don't expect too much. For example, it comes with a microphone for automatic calibration just like more expensive receivers, but this one incorrectly identified my center channel and fear soakers as "large" even though they obviously can't produce low frequencies. The automatic calibration in general was kind of buggy and finicky, unlike the auto calibration on Yamaha receivers. It lacks any network connectivity, which only really matters for firmware update and streaming internet radio. You probably won't need the former, and the latter is becoming obsolete. Most people interested in listening to music over the internet would probably just install Spotify on their smart TV anyway. I have not tried this with an Audio Return Channel yet, but it works fine both as a bluetooth receiver (for much better sounds quality than you're likely to get from a self-container Bluetooth speaker) and it functions well at 5.1 sound for a basic home theater. If you agree trying to build a component home theater system on a budget, this is a decent centerpiece for your home theater. On the other hand, if you're willing to spend the money on a component home theater system instead of a sound bar, you may want to consider some of the more feature-rich receivers that are around $100 more expensive.

Pro Sony
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a Sony TV which is excellent so when my AV gave out it was decided to go all Sony. This was a very good decision as it was easy to sync everything, including my new Sony blue ray. Pretty much seamless.

I would recommend this to a friendGreat amperage for a budget
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This does everything I need it to do an has all the power I need it to have but I guess I need to update my speakers because they just are producing a loud enough sound. I have to crank it all the way past 30 before it sounds like a theater but my speakers are ancient history old so maybe that's the case.

I am no music aficionado but I do enjoy good music
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this receiver so that I had something to play my CD's on. yeah yeah yeah. I'm old school. For the price I am more than satisfied with this receiver. I have it hooked up to 4 bookshelf speakers and a powered subwoofer and the sound quality is great. Later I'm going to see if I can connect my Alexa to the receiver :)
I would recommend this to a friendGreat product for a modest price.

Good basic receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid buy if its on sale. I got it open box and saved a little more. Set it up in a spare media room and didn’t need all the bells and whistles, just 5.1 surround sound. Fit the bill nicely and works as expected. Easy room calibration and enough hdmi ports.
