Sony STR-DG510 Home Theater Receiver Reviews
After I took it back to my local Best Buy, I actually started doing research on some. it was worth it. This one, I thought, was the best one for my situation. You have to get an optical cable for the sound, no biggey. I'm sure there are better, more expensive systems out there, but if you're looking at this one then they're not for you. So i'll be taking it back and upgrading yet again. It's real annoying when you're playing Resistance 2. Which means, video comes through the HDMI ports but no audio.
First:It's HDMI pass-through. The only reason i'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is for two reasons. Don't know why it's doing this, but I want a more expensive and better unit anyway. Second:The video has gone out 4 times so far. I'm using some speakers from my Panasonic dvd surround sound system and it never sounded better.
I have my PS3 hooked up to it and couldn't be more satisfied. The sound coming out of this unit is fantastic. My suggestion is, if it's in your budget then get it. If you can afford a little more, then go with a better, more expensive unit. I did have to go buy a powered sub, but for [.].
I didn't do any research on A/V receviers when I first started looking and got stuck with a crappy recevier.
The audio doesn't output through HDMI. good, but kinda misleading. But it does have 2 optical audio outs.
I've mailed my receiver to SONY's service center in Texas and awaiting its repair, and in the meantime, I'm without an amplifier. After less than 4 months, I've had to return the unit. This is NOT an isolated problem, as there are numerous blogs on the internet regarding this issue. I had anticipated reliability when purchasing a SONY product, not failure. The front display indicates "Protect" and the receiver does not work.
On a tight budget and want really good sound for your home entertainment system at a great price. THIS IS IT. Funny how things work - "nice" wasn't on my list for now - necessity was. My old receiver went unexpectedly on me; I had planned to put some money aside and get something "nice" in the future. Very modest price, very big sound with plenty of crisp, clean power. I couldn't be happier the way things turned out. Gotta lot of extra money to waste on bells and whistles.
Look elsewhere. The folks at J&R Music World also knocked my socks off with an order placed on a Thursday night being received via UPS ground by the following Monday - unheard of in this line of business. The folks at Sony did it again with this baby. I saw all the other great reviews for this product on Amazon and they were right.
You could do better but why spend all of that cash. I'm very pleased. This is a very good receiver, nice power, nice sound, very nice price. You have all of the hook ups you need and power to spare.
