Great Amplifier now with Easier Menus
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had a Sony Receiver Surround Sound amp for years and years (it finally died of a lightning strike). But this new model is awesome. Sony has improved the setup menu (its still a little cryptic) and I was able to get great sound in minutes!

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.

Great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thus far I am pleased with my Sony receiver! The Tech support was superb when I was setting it up. When we got disconnected they called me back immediately. The overall experience was great! The sound coming from the receiver sounds like I am at the movie theater, yet I am home! Great, great, great!!!

Easy set up
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace old Marantz amplifier reciever. Works well with existing speaker layout. Haven't used it as a pass through for complete home theater set-up, only surround sound, CD, and radio tuner. Bluetooth function is a convenient addition. Once paired, I can activate and stream from my phone without having to find remote and select input option.

Fantastic Upgrade for 4K Theater
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace an aging Sony receiver. I couldn’t be happier. Without replacing the speakers, my sound has completely changed. The calibration microphone is easy and incredibly effective. Simply hold it where you plan to listen and the receiver will optimize your settings. It even wakes the tv when the input device (cable box, Apple TV) is turned on. Great find!!
I would recommend this to a friend 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.

One of the best 5.2 relievers out
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really nice receiver. I love the Bluetooth function since most of my music the music streaming services are on my phone. Used this receiver for my Bose Acoustimass 10 system and it does very well in my home theater. It even has the ability to be turned on by the Bluetooth function, something I never knew existed. Kinda lime a power over ethernet service.

Almost Perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In upgrading our home theater the receiver that we had was not very compatible with our TV and DVR, issues with syncing the systems. Decided to try and stay with the same brand for compatibility. Only short fall is this receiver does no have the capability to add a couple additional speakers. I like to pipe music into my basement when I am working at in my basement shop. Everything else is working very well.

Not bad for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't do anything fancy with receivers and I won't pass HDMI through one unless it's something like a Nintendo Switch, but if you're just needing an affordable TV receiver to power your big speakers, this works excellently and is fairly seamless.

Great A/V Home theatre receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased to replace a Sony A/V receiver that no longer works. Intuitive setup, functions perfectly, automatically detects my Sony TV and switches to external speakers. Only issue, the remote does not control an older Sony BluRay player.

Posted .Hi RickInReno,
Thank you for the review. It's unfortunate that your old AV receiver no longer works. We're glad to hear you like the easy set up and smart features of the unit. If the Blu-ray player is connected via HDMI cable. Turn on the Bravia sync on both AV receiver and Blu-ray.
