I finally updated my old Sony receiver that was 11 years old to take advantage of improvements in technology and to handle my future needs.
Setup went well, though we are past the days of plug and play. The on screen set up menu was easy to use and I was pleased with the results after using the included microphone and mapping.
The sound options vary depending on the source material but the receiver drives my Polk's and they sound wonderful no matter what I am listening to, tv, movies, or music.
As with any piece of sound equipment, it pays to take your time and "learn" how the different sound options come across to your ear and go with what works best for your setup and source material.
I like that the receiver feels solid and robust, for the money I spent, I am pleased so far with my purchase.

I really like how these banana plugs fit the halves together. I've found them to be solid and very sturdy when everything is in place. You do have to use needle nose pliers to adjust the compression clip just a tad bit to get it to slide onto the speaker wire. Also, I wish there was the option to buy these in packs for the number of speakers one has, ie 5, 7, 9, etc.

A quality 4K that is nice and filmic, it really makes this release sing. The steelbook is one of the better looking releases, art wise, that has been released this year.

The design of my apartment resulted in very poor WiFi performance in part of the apartment. Being limited in placement of my router, none of which were ideal, I would go from advertised speeds (100/10) to (10/3) in the back half of the apartment.
I purchased this system after researching and discussion with a fellow tech friend.
Setup was very easy, I used the app on my iPad. I set up the router in the living room and plugged in one of the satellites in the farthest back bedroom. After fine tuning and making adjustments, I am averaging (115/12) in the living room and in the back bedrooms, (95/10). That is a huge improvement in performance.
It has almost been a full month and the performance has been very consistent.
To give you an idea of of my usage load, I have an AppleTV, XBoxOneX, and PS4 wired into the router. A Mac Mini, BluRay player, work laptop, iPad Pro, personal iPad and iPhone connected to my network.
