Reviews of the Sony STR-DN1000
-
CNET Review
The Good: Solid sound quality for the price; relatively inexpensive given the feature set; four HDMI inputs; basic graphical user interface; onboard Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding; Sirius-ready; automatic speaker calibration.
The Bad: Poor image quality on upconverted analog sources; no multichannel analog input; no traditional second zone functionality, although S-Air is supported.
The Bottom Line: The Sony STR-DN1000 offers solid sound and basic AV receiver features at a bargain price, but it's not nearly as good as last year's STR-DG920.
