 Excellent Midrange Receiver...The New Mistress In My Life!!! March 11, 2010
RDY4WAR (Maryland, USA)
The Sony STR-DN1000 7.1-Channel Audio Video Receiver (Black)is a awesome sight to look at for sure, but even novice audiophiles understand that you don't purchase a receiver because she looks better than you old girl. You purchase a receiver b/c you want to know if she can perform well at all task. Well, let me tell you...she can, this receiver is well equipped and performs very well.
The sound quality is pure and there are a variety of listing modes to suit multiple taste. The GUI is relatively simple and easy to use. You also have the ability to assign inputs, however, if you choose to use the most current connection (HDMI), there really is no need. My setup contains a 52 inch Samsung LCD, PS3, Xbox 360, Onkyo speaker package, and Verizon FIOS.
***Attention*** Please take note of these items to save you some headache.
1. Please make sure your cables have the latest specs. HDMI Version 1.3 Category 2. I failed to take note and did not have any picture until I realized I had an earlier version of HDMI cable that could only handle 480p. Amazon sells the best low price HDMI cables by Mediabridge.
2. Banana Plugs ...an absolute headache saver. There is not a lot of space behind the unit and the banana plugs are so much easier to use.
The only thing that would make this baby truly PHAT would be a front HDMI input. However, that's just a small gripe and takes nothing away from the way this baby blows. I'm sure that next year's model will have that. At any rate the feature set on this receiver will keep my old girl jealous for quite some time!!!
Everything I expected from a Sony March 3, 2010

The unit was remarkably easy to set up and the sound quality is great. The programmability is also great - the only caveat there is that since HDMI is expected to carry sound as well as video, a separate sound source can't be associated with an HDMI video-only source (I was trying to set up a DVI-I video signal from my PC which, perhaps because it is an older model, doesn't also carry sound. Ah well). Other than that small inconvenience, this unit has been a joy to own.
Oh, one other inconvenience: of course the remote is only marginally cross-compatible, even with other Sony devices. But that's why the Tech Gods made universal remotes.
Sony AV..good deal.great performance. February 28, 2010
Ronald W. Hill (Atl,GA.)
It's beautiful and is now the heart of my system.DP-790 Denon table,Epicure 20 speakers,Gemini PA-7000 preamp,Belkin PF30 power filter,MXR fifteen-Band EQ.Most of my listening is in stereo.The Sony DN-100 also has a DVD player, B.I.C. Beam Box FM antenna,Haier- HL32P1 TV,Compaq Presario connected.Audio and Visual -sounds and looks great.On-screen menu,(via remote) makes navigation set up simple.
