    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.

    I was a little disappointed with this receiver, after my old one decided to pass on after 10 years. I thought I would give Sony a try. For the money it provides positive features but the sound is not what I expected. Will keep but keep an eye out for a newer better model.

    The Sony 7.2 channel with Dolby Atmos 4K Ultra HD A/V home theater receiver is a great addition to your home entertainment system. I like the clean, simple menus on the display, plus with the addition of Bluetooth, it makes it easy to connect your gadgets to pipe in music.
