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!

Great Piece to Rack System
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was the first piece I purchased to my new Rack system that I was putting into my house. Was unsure of what brand I was going to build but very Happy with the Sony Products. I was able to get all of the components that I was looking for with Sony at Best Buy except old school 5 disc CD changer had to buy on line used.

It took a little time to understand the settings and picking the best platform for my listening taste but was able to find the output after about a hour and a half of trying various settings.

Sounds great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to hook up. Sounds great. Its nice to use with the tv.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went from an older STR-DH710 to this newer model and the 510 is a much better receiver. It has the on screen display which is great and I never used the 7.1 surround on the old unit, I only hooked up 5.1 surround. And for the price you can’t beat this, it was much cheaper than my old unit and has many more features including Bluetooth.

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this a few months ago after not upgrading my sound system in an embarrassing amount of time. Love it. Took a minute to set up the ARC feed through, but now with it makes watching tv without switching feeds so great. Plus the Bluetooth let's me blast out jams from all over the house. Great stuff.

Nice tuner for the family room, works great

I would recommend this to a friendSolid simple unit
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is as basic as it gets for a 5 channel 1 zone until. Struggles to handle any speaker wire thicker than the least expensive option, but overall the unit works well and has features you would expect a receiver to have in 2025.. The remote is basic, but fine. You get what you pay for with this receiver.

I would recommend this to a friendGreat 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.
If you need assistance, you can contact our product support.

Nice Receiver for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to setup, connected immediately with my benq TK850 projector as well as my surround sound speakers. The manual was easy to understand and the balancing of the speakers and subwoofer using the microphone was a cinch. I was literally watching videos with surround sound audio within thirty minutes. Thanks, Dean

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.
