"Crisp, dynamic sound with superb detail and impact > HATS jitter reducing technology > PS3-style GUI...Demands good ancillaries and time investment to get the best...Since the STR-DA5300ES emerged like a bit of a damp squib in 2007, Sony has made some serious upgrades and enhancements to create a bigger, bolder and much more dynamic-sounding STR-DA5400ES...Using full-range floorstanding speakers all-round, leaving the sub purely for LFE duties, the DA5400ES's..." read more »

"Solid sound quality for the price; relatively inexpensive given the feature set; four HDMI inputs; basic graphical user interface; onboard Dolby TrueHD...Poor image quality on upconverted analog sources; no multichannel analog input; no traditional second...The STR-DN1000 is the STR-DG920's successor, featuring a new sleek design with a glossy black finish...On the other hand, the STR-DN1000 feels like a step backward in some regards...If you can live with..." read more »

"Sony's ES line of receivers have been on the cutting edge lately, and the company's two new receivers--the STR-DA5400ES and STR-DA6400ES--both add the capability to stream HD video to a second room over a category 5e (Ethernet) connection...Sony and Denon have been in an arms race with their high-end AV receivers, and these new ES receivers look to move the bar up another notch...Our biggest worry is that with all these new features, AV receivers are getting very complex and difficult to configure for the average person..." read more »

"If you've been looking for receivers in this price range you know there isn't a huge variety so with that in mind I would recommend this receiver over any other similar priced model with the Onkyo being the exception...For the money you can't go wrong, everything I play sounds very good and there is no distortion even when turningthe volume up considerably loud...If you are on the fence about this, do what i did, buy it and try it out and if you don't think it is worth the price you can always return it, that's the great thing about Amazon, no hassles!! Anyway, I highly recommend the Sony STR-DH100..." read more »

"Relatively inexpensive 7.1 AV receiver; three HDMI inputs; three component video inputs; automatic speaker calibration; Sirius-ready....Subpar sound; no onscreen display; no onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio....We could have overlooked this if the STR-DH700 performed better than average for its price, but we were mostly underwhelmed by its sonics, although it's a decent choice for movies as long as you don't crank it too loud...While..." read more »
