Associated equipment included five Paradigm Reference Studio 20 v4 speakers run full range, a Panasonic DMP-BD35 Blu-ray player, Luxman PD-289 turntable, Shure V97xE phono cartridge, and Bellari VP530 tubed phono preamp. All movie selections were on...

Deadly sound quality; superb feature set; 4 HDMI ports; good user interface; built in Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoder; automatic speaker calibration; Sirius satellite radio ready  good feature to price ratio

Poor image quality on converted analog formats; multi-channel analog input is absent

The STR DN1000 has done exceptionally well in the audio department, but the up scaled videos were lack lustre. The feature set is good and is more than enough to keep you busy for a long time. For a price range of $322.92 – $499.99, the DN1000 does not...

For just under $500 retail, the Sony STR-DN1000 is one serious receiver that is as big on performance as it is on style ; The STR-DN1000 can do just about everything a modern home theater calls for and more in a way that is easy to set up, use and live...

I'm sure the STR-DN1000's lack of full 1080p up-conversion is going to cause some people grief. However, keep in mind the asking price and what you plan on connecting to the STR-DN1000. If all your sources are HD, especially native 1080p, then what do...

The Sony STR-DN1000 may just be one of my favorite receivers for around $500. What can I say? It hits all the right notes for me, it looks good, it's affordable and sounds better than you'd expect a sub-thousand-dollar receiver to sound. Sure, it's...

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.

Poor image quality on upconverted analog sources; no multichannel analog input; no traditional second zone functionality, although S-Air is supported.

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.

worked great for two years then just quit working when I was listening to music.no power

quit right after warranty expired. contacted online support with email to try to get help .they did not even respond to email 600 dollar receiver junk now

Was nice while it worked

Repair service is horrible. I took it to an approved local repair shop where they diagnosed the problem. I then waited for a back ordered board for the next three months. Sony's idea of making it better was to send me a broken replacement that wouldn't...

Matches good with other Sony products, upconverting feature, manual set up feauture
