    Really good receiver! The interface is a bit dated as are the controls. The pinch clips for the speaker wire are also dated but do the job. Sounds great with my klipsch speakers.

    Have hooked to Yamaha out door speakers for the pool, and sounds amazing. Bluetooth range is ridiculous as I can go into the front yard or anywhere in my house and it’s still connected.

    Got this receiver to replace my 20 year old Sony 5.1 that finally died. This one easily replaced it, keeping all the same speakers, but adding additional functionality with HDMI source switching and 4K Ultra and Hi-Res Audio. The only annoying thing is the on-screen display.

    Easy set-up. Sounds great. Shuts down when you turn the TV off but doesn't come on when TV is turned on. So you have to use 2 remotes to turn the system on.

    I just moved to a smaller place and wanted to hook up all of my external audio devices to one location rather than having separate speakers all over the room/house. The Sony 725W outputs my CD player and LP thru 16G speaker wires, my TV, Xbox/ps4, and computer and outputs them thru 2 Fisher speakers, a Sonos ray sound bar, and 4 Sono's 1's. It's been almost two months, and so far, so great. I would rec to anyone looking for an affordable receiver for multiple devices.

    Lots of inputs, all HDCP 2.2 4K UHD. As a bonus this is not nearly as deep as most units, allowing it to fit in a smaller cabinet (or have more room for cables and airflow).
