    I'm having trouble getting the speakers set-up and also, when I turn everything off, when I restart everything the SONY information starts coming up. Even after I already have the TV running no problem other than the sound testing of the speakers!

    Nice, basic surround received. Can't stream 4K dish channels through it because it complains about the receiver not being HDCP compatible. If I run the HDMI cables direct from dish receiver to TV then 4K streaming channels on Dish work fine.

    The banner function cannot be disabled. Every time the receiver switch to 4K the banner appears. It seems to always appear when it’s functioning. It’s annoying and don’t recommend this product.

    Works well however it constantly has popups you have to remove every time you turn it on. Haven't called Sony yet but suspect there's nothing you can do about it. It is very frustrating!

    Pretty decent receiver. Dolby Vision does not work on this and the HDMI passthrough didn’t work as intended. I even called customer support, they claimed it was my cables. It wasn’t. I bought a Yamaha and it worked fine out of the box.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
