Great Sound Quality

Pretty good
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having been a Denon guy for the past few years, it was a mental struggle to get this. I was looking for 7.2 and with COVID in store shopping was limited. I decided to try this and see how I like it. It's not bad. Sound quality is not as good as denon but still very good. The lack of banana plugs on all the speaker inlets is kinda cheap in my opinion. Only having 4 hdmi inputs is actually fine for me, but it may not be for some. This receiver fit the bill for me. Play 7.2 in a media room with directv, playstation, and blu-ray player. That's it. And so far it's done that just fine.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works well, and was easy to set up. I bought it as an economical replacement for a str-dh1080 that stopped working and it seems to be a stripped down version of that.
