Bottom Line:: The Sony STR-DG810 delivers three HDMI inputs at a fairly low price, but connectivity, features, and sound quality shortfalls spoil the deal.

works great in my system

by dwenham on September 26, 2007

Pros: 3 hdmi inputs, reasonable power, clean sound, tremendous value

Cons: lousy speaker terminals for larger wire, no upconvert to hdmi (I don't need)

Summary: This poor little receiver sure deserved better reviews, after all, it's the same unit that CNET gave a 7 to a few months ago, with 1 more hdmi input. ...

Summary: This poor little receiver sure deserved better reviews, after all, it's the same unit that CNET gave a 7 to a few months ago, with 1 more hdmi input. Can't see why it would lose ground for adding connectivity. It's running Deftechs in my system as loud as I can stand them. (they're pretty efficient, so not a real challenge for the amps.) Just wanted something to run my new HD system and it does so just fine.
