Excellent value
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this as an open box item for over 30% off and it was in amazing shape,only missing the FM antenna which I most likely would have never used anyway. Some have knocked this item for using spring clips but no big deal for me. It suits all.my surround sound needs, adequate power for me. Even at full price this would have been an extreme bargain. Can't wait to add a pair of elevation speakers to it!!

Great receiver for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little receiver for the price. Not many receivers support A/B speakers, HDMI pass thru and 7.2 in this price range... I needed this to run 5.1 surround, set of B speakers and switch HDMI... works great. Some complain about the interface... but you can figure everything out without too much trouble (re-assigning digital inputs and such). The only thing missing for me was a phone input.

Great receiver for the money!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was using an optical cable as a passthrough to my old Sony (non 4k) Volumes were different for every channel/program. Now that is solved. Sound quality is amazing, PS4 is outta this world. Only reason not 5 stars is because you have to press the Sat/Tv button on receiver remote every time you turn the TV on. The menu screen pops up twice every time. I find it highly annoying, my family says it's not a problem. So we are keeping it.

Pretty good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall pretty good for the price. I previously had the model above this one but HDMI inputs stopped working Geek squad couldn’t do anything and advised me maybe Sony repair can help. Less strength but good quality sound still. I have the 7.2 setup with 2 subwoofers all Sony speakers in a 20x20 media room on an 85 inch tv

It is a SONY
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did not think much of this product at first; MY FAULT as I did not learn exactly what and how the product worked. When that happened, a wonderful world of sound opened up, and not, I would not trade it for anything else. One really DOES need to understand the product and how it works for it to bring the best sound to your life.

- Pros mentioned:Price
Good enough to power the Bose acoustimas surround
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought for a replacement of a broken onkyo which was about 6 years old. This Sony was half the price that I bought the original one for so I would say it’s a great bargain because it works like it’s supposed to. The only thing I had trouble with and said F it was the lip sync with external devices such as Apple TV, but cable worked so I guess it was ok. But yeh, this device does what it was built for and the price is nice. Hope this helps... Cheerio

Great HD audio solution at a good price
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price this does everything I need it to do. I am using the Earc port on my OLED LG CX in order to get the atmos sound. This unit will not do the 120 frames using the built in video swiching, but that is fine. I only wanted to use this as an audio device.

Great Starter or Upgrade Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a great upgrade from my previous Sony Receiver. The sound that comes out of this unit is powerful and definitely more immersive. The fact that you can run all your 4K connections through this makes it the perfect media center hub.
