Customer Review

A wisdom of my youth was that you never intended to buy a compact plant but always must compile a stereo system from individual modules themselves. The stereo of my youth doing their loyal services today. A new application of wisdom is also very topical again. For quite some time I have a complete system from Sony (Blu-ray player with 5.1.System) in operation and am so far as it pleased. Unfortunately, this (admittedly relatively favorable) system is closed by its own plug in and can not be expanded. Accordingly consuming to test the new 7.2-channel receiver was because the speakers from the neighborhood had to be trucked in addition, so that really 7.2 sound could resound. But the conclusion is clear: The receiver does not only priced in a different league, but also listen in!

I have connected the receiver to a PlayStation4. Acoustic test objects were both PS4 games, as well as music CDs, Super Audio CDs and Blu-ray movies and -Konzertmitschnitte.

The connection and setting the receiver is relatively simple and largely intuitive (at least one HDMI cable but is necessary, because otherwise you can not see the menu on the TV screen). In addition, the STR-DN 1050 is already provided by Sony not only high-res rendering of audio files in FLAC and DSD format, but also for video content (in Full HD and / or 3D and even in 4K Ultra HD) forward, but also scale up even lower resolution to 4K.

The STR-DN1050 is quickly connected to my Wi-Fi. Even the connection of subwoofers / speakers is problem. They are simply screwed to the rear panel. Included is a "directional" microphone with about five meters long cable. This allows the speaker "fine tune" from the sofa.

And the sound result: Fine! The location is much better than in the compact erlauschbar Sony Blu-ray 5.1-conditioning, music according to their own preferences through numerous settings also modifiable and is fed up with Schmackes from the speakers. At live concerts you feel at least acoustically as part of the stadium spectators, because the sound is clearly located.

The amplifier is well integrated in the local hi-fi or home cinema system thanks to diverse connection possibilities, but he has six HDMI inputs and three HDMI outputs, USB ports, the receiver also communicates via Bluetooth with mobile devices and is also the iMac from fütterbar with sound data.

The bottom line: Five stars for the impeccable price / performance ratio. ;)
