    This was an excellent replacement for my outdated Sony SE501. Everything plugged into the unit and I was up running and enjoying my surround sound again. An additional plus was the unit was open box so I saved some $$. Thanks BB.

    Got this as an early Christmas gift for my parents when it was on sale. Their old receiver couldn't transmit a 4k HDR/DV signal so it was time for a new one. Setup was a breeze and it cuts down on the number of cables to/from the tv. Can't really ask for more. Oh and the sound quality is great. They both noticed a difference immediately.

    excellent unit for the price, very good audio quality. the open box purchase was a very good deal, but the inspection of the unit failed to disclose 2 used and extremely dented and damaged batteries inside the box, not a huge issue but they should have seen this and replaced them with another set. I am very happy with the purchase.

    I replaced my 30-year-old Sony STR-AV970X, only after I could not get it out of "PROTECTOR" mode, believing it had served me very well for three decades and in need of "retirement". I originally purchased the 2.1 channel receiver, but decided to use it to replace the 50-year-old Pioneer SX780 I had on my porch. The 5.2 Channel Sony would go in my living room where I could actually use my center channel speakers again, sans, having to add an additional amplifier. I very much appreciate having both RCA and HDMI inputs as I can use my "old school" Sony VCR and DVD players while still allowing for future upgrades. The functions are not as "user friendly" as those on my old receiver, with all its LED lights and huge remote, however, like everything, it's a learning experience. One improvement over my old receiver is its tolerance of lower impedance speakers, permitting my hooking up 6 ohm Aiwa with 8 ohm Sony rear speakers for a truly unique surround experience. I am highly satisfied with both my new Sony receivers, and, as I am nearly 70, will probably enjoy them for the rest of my life.
