    Replacement for my previous Sony receiver which had an issue with the power. This replacement for the Sony STR-DN1080 (no longer made by Sony) has most of the same inputs, but not all. The Best Buy Technician did a great job in setting it up.

      Hi Michael,

      Thank you for the 5-star rating! 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!

    Excellent sound . Able to control volume of each speaker from the remote which is great during football games when you want to hear the band and not so much all the talking from the play by play. The only cons are when I turn on the system, the tv and cable box come on but the audio go to tv and not the cable box. Then when I turn the system off, the amplifier turns off but then turns itself back on. Had the geek squad install the new sony but it is a minor inconvenience to manually turn sony on and off.
