Sony STR-DA3600ES

100% of the reviews on Amazon.com give this product a positive rating.

The two most important things to consider when trying to determinewhether or not a receiver is the right fit for your home theater areits feature set and performance; in that regard the Sony STR-DA3600ESis solid. As I mentioned in the first paragraph,...

Interesting features ; powerful, tightly controlled bass ; good detail

Lacks refinement, dynamics and scale ; sounds too uptight

Disappointingly, the Sony finds itself outgunned and out enthused by all of its closest rivals

Excellent sound, GUI setup is quick and easy to understand, Bravia Sync features are excellent

Those posts, if you dont use bananna plugs, its tight fitting, and with the plugs it seems like alot of stress on them

Good power, great HDMI output, fairly intuitive programming

Needs more power, needs more digital input flexibility, almost great

Excellent range of features. Particularly the ethernet switch feature puts this above other makes for me. Easy to setup. Microphone supplied to assist setup of speakers.

Perhaps lacks slight base but otherwise no issues whatsoever.

this is the third av reciever i have owned in the last ten years and by far the best ! not only does it sound great for home cinema but music sounds amazing too,loads of features ,surround settings and internet radio .what more can you ask for,excellent

none

Great sound matched with SAVS150 7.1 speakers. Love the internet connection and ability to listen to internet radio. DLNA network connection means it can stream audio and video from home network. Optional iPod dock plays music from iPod

Poor on screen GUI. Complex to navigate to a specific internet station or tune stored on home network. The buit in radio tuner is not DAB.....will be out of date in only a few years when all radio will be DAB.
