Sony AV Receiver 2009 Line Up

str-dn1000

Say goodbye to DG series AV receivers Sony introduced last year and a few of them were the first ones to support the latest audio HD codecs like TrueHD and DTS-HD (HG820 and 920 series) and welcome a new family with a new face in DH and DN category.

The top of the line STR-DN1000 looks very pretty in its glossy outfit and sports XMB interface (come on Sony don’t be stingy with this menu for lower end models next time). This receiver is pretty much the same as the DG920, has 4 HDMI inputs and of course pumps out crisp TrueHD and DTS-HD to your 7.1 speaker set up. Sony also added S-Air wireless technology to the receiver so you may listen to your music by using the optional wireless speaker AIR-SA10 (up to 10 can be used at the same time).

STR-DH700 and 800 will be happy to encode your audio and distribute to 7.1 speaker, just have a little less power and have fewer HDMI inputs. For those of you who are still stuck with analog audio, you may pick up DH100 and 500 receiver pretty soon available in your local retailer. Otherwise check out the Pre-Order SonyStyle page.

No ES receiver update was announced yet. I have just received STR-DA6400ES model and so far have been impressed with this network featured, XMB happy GUI. I may have a lil post about this receiver later. Hopefully Sony has added a similar front panel to DN1000 model, as the ES receiver has a handy HDMI input on the front as well.

    Sony has always been very good about the quality products that work well. That has not changed in this case either. The Sony STR-DN1010 may not be the best AV receiver we’ve reviewed, but still a very good product. With its unique capabilities in 3D, may be the only option for some people. Since 3D is not the norm but visually, it could justify the opening of a weighting function that exists in the score. Maybe a couple of years from now it will not happen, but until then, Sony will release a newer model and still can not reach the top.
