SONY Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our new house already had surround sound built in, but we were unable to take advantage of it, because we did not have a receiver with a HDMI cable. The new Sony receiver has been a game changer!

Great sound with simple setup.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love electronics where I never have to look at the instructions. Simple setup and excellent sound quality. I got it because it was the only brand/model that fit my console (less than 17"). The tight space had me worried about heat build up but that has not been a problem. I bought a top mounted fan that turns on after 88 degrees. It very seldom comes on.

Great 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.

Good for the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a hard time deciding whether to do 3 stars or 4. Very good value for the money but Sony could have made a few small touches to improve the user experience, especially making sure the Bravia sync really works as intended. Overall a simple receiver but if looking to get into Home theater save your money for the next level up or spend $300 on a better used one.

Excellent receiver for the money.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent receiver. The rest of my equipment is also Sony making setup super easy. It helped eliminate a good amount of clutter with the cables. Before it was a cable from each piece of equipment to the tv now it’s just one cable. Also the receiver has an accompanying microphone to help balance your speakers automatically which is awesome.

Easy connecting
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to use and connect. A little annoying that I have to keep hitting button to select channel I want rather then just connecting with previous connection without re clicking.

Inexpensive receiver for a 5.1 system.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to power the ceiling mounted speakers that were installed in the house we recently purchased. I didn't want anything too elaborate as the only thing we'll use it for is sound for our family room TV. I initially had some minor problems getting it set up, it wanted to turn the TV back on after I'd turn it off. I then carefully re-read the instructions provided and went online for additional information. Everything now works as I desired. I wish that the additional information was provided with the instruction manual, but that's how most things are done nowadays.
