My Equipment:

Black Friday 2023 price seems to be $348 on Amazon - Not bad but not really a deal !!

[Pawnband]

Thank you for the review. I like that you go in depth with cheaper receivers, most people on youtube only want to talk about things I cant afford lol. I just got this receiver yesterday and haven't gotten a chance to play with it too much, but it seems promising. At first I thought it was complete junk until I realized that the C2 oled has eARC disabled by default! Changing that made things much better. I may still go with the yamaha you reviewed, but I couldn't pass up trying this one for $250 open box.

[seanbrown]

Thank you for explaining the eARC feature. Some sites will listed and others did not without any explanation. 😅

[garygray]

Wow great video I have this receiver thanks you so much

[abhayantony]

Thanks for the review- helped me with my purchase

[ladfa]

I had trouble getting rid of the irritating popup menu everytime I start my receiver. Now I am using just optical cable to the TV. But to get the full bandwidth audio you really need HDMI, so that is a problem now :) I bet there must be some better choices in 2023. SONY are not willing to upgrade to fix the menu issue, since they are just recommending people to buy more expensive SONY gear.

[EsoxLucius]

Earc makes it so much easier. I just plugged the hdmi from my tv to the receiver and the remotes works to turn thing on and off. Earc is the best !

[paolodeangelis]

I own this unit and am planning on using it to run 6 6.5inch ceiling speakers in a 20ftx 35ft room. Kitchen, dining, living room open concept. I want to play music mostly for gatherings. what speaker would you suggest to go with this unit? Id like to be under $100CAD per speaker.

[Musicking-udqg]

question-- want to replace SAMSUNG HT-C5530 BLU ray wants to keep speakers, is it possible to use Sony AV receiver with those speakers??

[antsmith]

Cool review...Will this receiver work with a 5.1.4 theater system? I really don't need the extra up-firing capability of my front satellite speakers.

[Skaetdude]

Odd question here...The little Hi Res sticker on top corner, are they 12mm or 15mm? I have 2 sizes and want to put on..thanks

[manzarek]

I see this dont supports WiFi but I wonder in what case you may need WiFi? So between this and yamaha rx v40 which is the better choice?

[MattMaxwell]

You can solder the ends of your speaker wires and then it's no more difficult than banana connectors.

[riturajsrivastava]

From where u bought this bro...and what price??

[johnabraham]

Sir how to buy in India. Please let me know. Thank you!!!

[kahlilhaywood]

Question, I own this receiver, can it really push 2 subs successfully? How do I connect the second one?

[charruaporelmundo]

Which subwoofer model I need to buy for this model?

[dve]

can you adjust bass treble front speakers and height settings?

[gsanchez]

For people that have problems with the spring plug. The solution is use flex bananas plugs

[jhonsaenz]
