    Pros: * Does as advertised, 4K pass through with HDR * Bluetooth works well * Small unit, fits in small spaces nicely Cons: * Uses spring clip wire holders (but you should know that before buying) * When powering on, it some times shows a very annoying splash screen asking what you want to do. It's unnecessary and adds time to your system startup. * You have to change settings to enable 4K and HDR pass through on each port.

    Great price ... but didn't like that there was only one set of speaker connections with plug in capability (I have a 7.2 setup). I was able to get my precious setup to work again ... shook I ended yo returning this product (originally was going to keep for a backup, but due to the connectors being old style, I decided to return it for a refund instead). Very surprised that Sony was using old bare wire connectors, when my 18-20 year old pioneer reciever had the newer plug connection on it!
