<blockquote>TheGreatDonkey<p>From what I have seen, Sony had a history of refreshing their av receiver line every year or two, typically incrementing on the previous year.<br /><br />Over the past few years (during COVID), they didn't release anything new in this space. The AV forums had several people even speculating whether Sony might be getting out of it.<br /><br />Then this new updated model line came out earlier this year (to some surprise) - new design that while it may look similar, very different architecture internally than they would typically have done.<br /><br />They seemed to have had an initial issue on the factory line, with several reports of whining. More recent reports suggest this was consistently fixed, with Sony support replacing faulty units for those impacted. Being a first model year, there may be other oddities they fix through firmware - I haven't heard anything else significant though.<br /><br />Anyhow, there still may be some faulty stock floating around out there, though all of this seemed to play out earlier this summer.<br /><br />If I were in the market for a home av receiver in this price range, I would have no issue considering this on my list. The immersive object 3D sound seems to be where the big engineering updates went, with some solid reviews (I haven't heard it myself yet). I've had Onkyo, Pioneer, Kenwood, and arcam receivers that I enjoyed fail way to early. While not always considered quite as good in some of the more eccentric av circles, never had a Sony one prematurely die yet. And I have had Sony release occasional firmware updates literally years after release.<br /><br />Worst case, which time suggests should be increasingly unlikely, you get an early factory one with the issue and return it, or call Sony for a factory replacement known to be fixed.<br /><br />Good luck!</p></blockquote><p>True and true. Those were dark times trying to buy a new reciever during the height of Covid. If I remember correcrly there was one factory in China that made a speficic component for all receivers that also burned down rhus screwing things up even more that plus the rumors of Sony exiting the market for AVR's. During that time I was in the market for a Sony STR-DN 1080 and they became near impossible to find. What was once selling for 450-500 was close to 900 at some merchants! Lucikly I nabbed an open box for $450. Fortunaelty prices have seemd to settle in the market and its good to see Sony released a new line. I know those models will be there when I'm ready to upgrade in the future.</p><p> </p>

Quote from LEOMHK1.0 :
It's a marketing ploy
There's really no necessary of routing a video signal through your sound system.(Except maybe convenience)
Unless you have an upper level/elite unit that would truly upscale/upconvert lower quality signals. It would be best to spend the money on a higher quality TV or monitor.

I personally stuck with 5.1 optical receivers and pipe the audio via the optical cable from TV to receiver. It's good enough for me. I've picked up a number of 5.1 optical receivers from shopgoodwill.com for an average of $29 shipped. Granted they are 20+ years old and don't have all the fancy audio adjustments. But sound and reliability are rock solid.

The biggest difference is that HDMI can pass higher-resolution audio, including the formats found on streaming services such as Dolby Atmos and DTS HD Master Audio. These formats can't be transmitted across optical. For many typical home users, this currently isn't a big deal.

This receiver works great with a Bravia TV. It's fully implemented. The Denon I was using previously worked ok but had some HDMI CEC issues.

Am I missing something? All the links show $898. Are the deals dead?
