    Great Entry Level Receiver

    This Sony unity is a great entry level receiver with HDMI ARC and 4K (60 FPS) passthrough. I bought this receiver mainly because it had the basic features I wanted along with the necessary dimensions to fit within the media console we own, so it's out of sight (by orders of my wife). It has some minor software quirks relating to communication with linked devices, but nothing overly detrimental to QoL. No wifi, but not a deal breaker at the moment. Miraculously, the unit manages to avoid overheating despite its cramped location, so hats off to Sony for that one.

      Hi DShaka, Awesome! We are so glad to hear that you are happy with your purchase! With support for High Dynamic Range (HDR) signal pass-through, you can enjoy the incredible jump in image contrast and brightness it brings—and the additional shadow detail and highlights further enhance picture detail and brings colours to life. Latest HDR standards such as HDR10, HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) and Dolby® Vision are supported. -Carl Sony_US

    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'm so glad I upgraded from my old Sony receiver! The 4K pass through was what was needed over the old one. Also, this receiver is so much better at automatically turning on with the TV, and also switching between components. I drove 50 miles to another Best Buy store to get it on an open box deal, so I absolutely feel like it was worth the extra effort.
