      Hi DAVEINHAMBURGNY,

      Awesome! Your new receiver supports the latest three-dimensional surround sound formats including Dolby Atmos and DTS: X, drawing you into the middle of the action you see on screen. And with 4K Ultra HD picture quality, and support for all major HDR formats including Dolby Vision , your viewing experience will be transformed. You’re in for quite the cinematic upgrade!

      Thank you for choosing Sony!

    Catch it on sale for under $300 and you can’t find a better value for a 7 channel a/v receiver. I use for five channel Dolby tv and the other two channels for outdoor stereo in two locations. Clean 145w per channel and HDR 4K pass through also.

    Replaced a fifteen year-old Sony Home Theater Receiver that bit the dust during a power surge. This new receiver is everything that was great about the previous receiver and more. Quite pleased with the replacement.
