Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: . use for home office audio: great sound. . straightforward set up, with or w/o osd. . you still need to consult the manual though. . multiple input options, and ample hdmi and digital audio inputs: 1 coax, 3 opticals. . sound: 110 WATTS WITH VERY LITTLE DISTORTION AT HIGH VOLUMES, NOT AS CRISP AS MY PIONEER 919 VSX, BUT VERY PLEASING. . YOU CAN SET UP THE X OVER FOR THE SUB FOR EVERY SET OF SPEAKERS, NICE FEATURE, goes as low as 40 hz . MULTIPEL SOUND FIELDS OPTIONS, less if analog audio source IS used. . have it hooked to 2 M-60 polksaudio monitors, 4 cieling speakers 120 w/each, 100 w power sub: great sound quality, fills the room and is warm at high and low tones. this unit can drive all speakers & delivers a poweful sound. . Definetly need a SUB: Even with the M-60 Freq. range 42-25 khz, still the sub made the all difference in the sound. . remote : easy and large & controlls all sony equipments. . stylish, shiny, black, hidden buttons behind seemless front door.
Cons: . not backlit remote: a big minus, not enough to take out an egg though. . runs a little bit "warmish". but it is a huge powerfull machine. give it enough space to breath. . price high still, got it for less then waht newegg has it offered for... sorry new egg lost on this one. . compared to the yamah 565 and pioneer 919, it comes second after both, but may be b/c i am not yet too familiar with it....will update later. . need large finegrs to control the remote with ease. i.e.: volume button all the way down and sudio sources all the way up. not very ergonomic, but still beats the yamaha 565 awful remote. . no scene buttons like the yamaha remote has. not a big problem: u have to push 2-3 buttons not only one. this is nitpicking,.. . upscale only to 1080i. but process trueHD, AND MORE ADVANCED SOUNDs packages.
Other Thoughts: all in all worth the (...) dollars i paid for, but honestly if the pioneer vsx 919 was not on back order i would have got it instead, ..the 2 machines are very similar, but i prefer the pioneer 919 for it's power and purer sound..( not very discernable however). this receiver is a great center processor for any audio or video equipment. I recommend it w/o reservation for under 300 dollars (shipping included).

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Tons of options; good hi and low sounds; picked up for $380; all the inputs and outputs needed for normal entertainment center (pc, ps3, 42 inch Bravia, wii, multiple sound cards, 12in sub, 4 8in.x2 towers, center and rear); Bravia sync is cool; flip cover on front hides all and gives sleek look. I'm impressed.
Cons: Don't get me wrong, this is a great receiver. First, the speaker output knobs are a pain (fine threads) and difficult to use. Set up...well at 3 hours is a pain as well. I feel like I'm half way there. After 6 hours I hope to be thoroughly impressed. So far, I am. Other than setup and speaker knobs, no gripes right now.
Other Thoughts: Nice upgrade from a sony str-de835. To be honest, not a huge difference in sound quality. Big difference in video options. Other than the many options and digital features that didn't exist 11 years ago, the unit didn't change much. Yes, that receiver lasted 11 years. If I get that type of mileage out of this one I'll be extremely satisfied.

Fantastic Amp!
Reviewed By: daximus on 11/21/2009
Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Works great, very easy to set up with onscreen GUI, sounds really good, has every input/output imaginable, has all the fancy HD sound capabilities, looks very nice, has every possible speaker combination available from 7.1 down, the auto setup works well. I don't know what else to say, its perfect for me.
Cons: I honestly can't think of anything.
Other Thoughts: Sony takes a beating in reviews from extreme audiophiles, but honestly...I don't hear the difference. Perhaps if I had $2000 uber-high-end speakers then maybe, but for your average "joe" with a decent home theater setup this amp is fantastic. What you get for the money is amazing. For those of you trying to make a decision about what model (at least from the Sony lineup) of receiver to get, I would recommend nothing less than this one. Even if you don't plan to run 7.1 this is the Amp to get. It's HDMI everything...plug Blue Ray/PS3/HD-DVR into receiver, plug TV in to recever...done. No audio cables, no coax, no RCAs, no light pipe...nothing but a few HDMIs. And it has all the HD sound capabilities and whatnot. It also has more than enough power to push everything. My setup...Bravia 52" TV, this receiver, PS3, HD-DVR, Polk 60s for fronts, Energy surround bundle for the rest of the 7.1, Polk 12" sub. Amazing home theater for around $3000.

Nice unit
Reviewed By: bri on 11/13/2009
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Worked perfectly as advertised. Auto Tune, and setup worked flawlessly. Still have the ability after auto tuning to make your own tweaks.
Cons: GUI interface on TV is rather basic, and elementary in appearance, but it does get the job done for the most part. Some configuration options (Input labeling etc) can net be setup in the GUI interface, but only in the Reciever display.
Other Thoughts: Purchased this unit because I was looking to spend under $500, and my previous sony reciever did not have HDMI switching. Very happy with it and money well spent.
