Buy Sony STRDG820 7.1 Audio Video Receiver - Black


This is the third strike. I purchased an Harmon Kardon AVR 154, which caused problems with pops in the speakers. I asked for a replacement, and they sent another defective one which looked to be refurbished. I gave up on the AVR and bought the Sony for a few more dollars. Another mistake. Problems playing CD's with the beginning portions of songs being cut off. Problems with the switching of TV channels from HD to SD TV via the HDMI switching. I replaced all the other components and cables involved including th CD player (which is made by Sony) and three different Set Top Boxes. TV works fine directly from the STB, but locks up through the Receiver. This has been going on for 4 months, with multiple technical support calls. At one point they asked me to switch out the DVD/CD player, which was just replaced. How many end users have a spare CD player? I gave up and have to accept the problems. Amazon should have just replaced the thing with a proven piece of equipment and ate any addition cost for all the hassle. This STR DG-820 isn't worth 1/2 the cost.Get more detail about Sony STRDG820 7.1 Audio Video Receiver - Black.
