A 7.1 receiver is an important component of any home theater. A 7.1 receiver supports 7 speakers and a subwoofer. Most new 7.1 receivers support the latest audio standards like Dolby and DTS. Some 7.1 receivers have a built-in DVD player, maybe even a Blu-ray player. You can get a 7.1 receiver for a reasonable price. Some 7.1 receivers cost less than $500 and even include speakers. High end 7.1 receivers cost more but offer better audio, more inputs, and other features not found on low-end 7.1

Reviews for this Yamaha receiver (6 expert reviews (rating 66 / 100) • 131 user reviews): "Rivals may offer more features but for the money few can match the V671’s talents with a Blu-ray track...So if you’re a little more serious about your home cinema sound – and have more cash to spend, of course – you’ll need to look further up Yamaha’s range, where you’ll find the RX-V671, a 7.1-channel network-enabled model with greater power and better features...In terms of looks Yamaha hasn’t done much to distinguish the V671 from its other models past and present, but why tamper with a winning formula...Aside from AV sockets, there’s an Ethernet port, an interface for optional Yamaha devices (the YID-W10 wireless iPod/iPhone system or the YBA-10 Bluetooth audio receiver) plus remote control and trigger ports, extra springclips for zone 2 or ‘presence’ speakers (see page 2) and FM/AM antenna inputs..."

Reviews for this Sony receiver (1 expert review (rating 100 / 100) • 130 user reviews): "Great value; exciting sound; powerful, tight bass; accurate steering of effects...No network functionality means no music streaming services...so it is that we’re fascinated to see what the DH810’s successor, the STR-DH820, has in store...However, the STR-DH820 still has room for full video upconversion and 1080p upscaling courtesy of Faroudja...Sony’s Advanced Digital Cinema Auto Calibration (DCAC) system is nippier than those of rival manufacturers and after..."

Reviews for this Sony receiver (201 user reviews): "The audio and video performance of the Sony STR-DH520 is more than acceptable, especially given it's price and ability to pass 3D content, decode all current audio codecs, and deliver a full seven channels of amplification...Step into the $400 price range and you will find increased value compared with the STR-DH520...The STR-DH520 has a surprising number of features for such a low cost...A good whack would easily dent the enclosure...I tested a wide variety of sources, including broadcast TV, Blu-ray, PS3 games, and streaming movies, and I found the overall sound quality to be far better than I expected and quite acceptable..."
