5 out of 5 stars Excellent choice   August 17, 2010

I picked up this receiver after learning that my older Sony receiver did not have a 3-D pass through feature as I am looking to upgrade to a 3-D TV in the near future. I cannot speak about it's 3-D ability yet, but I can speak about it's sound output. This receiver is a marked improvement over my last Sony which I thought was excellent. After hooking up my Comcast High Def box and Sony Blu-Ray player the sound reproduction in my home theater is amazing. For such cheap money this receiver is well worth every penny.

2 out of 5 stars What was Sony thinking?   July 14, 2010

I bought this receiver to replace a non-HDMI Sony receiver. I thought that since I already had a Sony HDMI TV and HDMI Blu-Ray player that setup would be a snap. It was, except for one not-so-minor problem - the supplied remote can't be programmed to control a DirecTV satellite receiver. That's right - Sony apparently didn't think 18 million DirecTV users were important enough to bother with. So my dream of a single-remote system is still just that - a dream. Add to that what is possibly the worst written manual I've seen from a major consumer electronics maker and a less-than-stellar GUi, and I feel like a 2 star rating is being generous. However, I have to admit that the picture and sound quality are fine - perhaps the only redeeming qualities of this ergonomic nightmare.

I've been using the new receiver for a few weeks now and since I was upgrading from a 12+ year old system, the sound is a big improvement. This may be in part to the automatic calibration during setup. This would have been a 5 star rating if it wasn't for the fact that the manual is horrible to read through and you need to do that to figure out which inputs go with what and the on screen menu is slightly confusing.

While I can't get all professional and state numbers and audio jargon, I can say that if you're never had a receiver or looking for a new one for general use, this is a great one! I mainly got it to complement my other Sony products and hoping that their products with 3D and Blu Ray would be firm and absolute. It is a very pretty unit with hidden controls and a smooth front. I'm not into knobs, so it's a plus to me. I suppose it might be a disadvantage if you lose the remote, but there are still a few controls under the folding panel.

I haven't used it with 5.1 or 7.1 yet, just centers and fronts. It's nice. I had a Samsung HTIB and this receiver with just a center is more vivid and lively than that was. It's amazing how much is missing from a home theater by only opting for an all in one package.

My only current issue is the remote. Being new to having a receiver, there are so many options and settings you can use. To top that off, if you have other Sony products, you can adjust even more settings. It's taking some time to get used to, that's for use. I assume most quality receivers have the same remotes, but golly, it takes some time to figure out. I'm excited to learn them all.

This product has only been out for a few weeks (perhaps months), so we can't give a longevitiy review, but I have had no problems with it and have just enjoyed the sounds and video upscaling it can filter. I only have HDMI products, so I can't attest to any other inputs/outputs (and there are many). On second thought, my Wii is component. It's pretty cool to have the Wii plugged into it.

I use it with a Sony Blu Ray Player and a Samsung LED TV.

Overall, it's amazing to me. If you're looking to jump into the general waters of a receiver with 3D pass through, this could be for you.
