Product ReviewsSony STR STR-DN840 7 Channel 150 Watt Receiver

Great value power receiver with bluetooth

I really like this line of Sony STR receivers for music. The bluetooth is excellent. The sound fields on 7.1 setups are excellent across all music genres. This receiver has crazy power that's pretty clean. I mostly got this for my teenage son so he could play obnoxious music at ear destroying levels (yes, I am that dad). Running these through two Bose 301 series IV speakers from 1980s and a surround field of Mirage speakers/w sub I picked up at auctions. He can fill a field with exceptional sound.

Very nice! Replaces my Panasonic from 1998 that still works fine, but has no HDMI connectors.

I see it has all the connections I will need. My house is small, so when something comes in, something has to go out. I have 2 Picture Tube type TV's in my living room and I need to get Rick, My boss's husband, to help me move out the two TV's, so I can put the 49" Sony 900E TV. I went to Best Buy on BLACK FRIDAY and got a good price and had them deliver it (since it has an android similar to SIRI on my phone, I thought it best to get 3yr extended warranty- they are only 15 miles away). It was a close fit for my SUV, so I had them deliver it. I currently have a surround system at home (2 15" ElecroVoice wolfers, 2 metal midrange, and 2 metal tweeters, along with 2 ElectroVoice crossover boards in the two AristoCrat cabinets. I started my original Stereo system in 1967 and changed from an electron-tube system (75 watts)(1967)(DYNAKIT) to the 120 watt Panasonic system in 1998, and now the SONY System! I have been very happy with Sony and Panasonic products over the years. So I haven't plugged it in yet, but in the past I have purchased re-furbished products from Panasonic and they have always behaved as new! I am sure I won't be disappointed by this tuner/amplifier.

Great speaker, receiver combo

I love the balanced sound of these speakers, still one of the best budget systems. The Sony receiver is also a great value and HDMI makes setup easy.

just keeps getting better!

I bought this item without a manual and so I was kinda lost on how to access all the functions, but after some internet research I found a website that allows anyone to view PDF of manuals for free. so I was able to unleash the awesumness of the sound this baby can put out! I really like the audio/speaker settings where you are able to change frequencies as well, and alter the subwoofer pre out decibels. even though this unit only allows 2 apps, Pandora, and Slacker radio, and probably a first generation smart receiver or close to it, i'm happy with that, already have all that stuff on my bluray player, and t.v., so I like the simplicity of the internet capability. my last home theater, a different brand, had all bells & whistles, but lack really great sound quality and was suppose to be just under 1500 watts. I can truly feel the output difference with this great Sony A/V receiver!Read full review...

Good sound quality. Missing features

Good receiver for the entry level. Lacks pre-inputs for sacd, construction is good but being lightweight feels like a simple product. Internet has no radio stations. Basic giu.

5 stars for receiver/1star for manual

The receiver is great with lots of options. Worked with Sony Bravia but not sure about other brands. Had to spend a Lot of time researching on the internet because the manual is useless. Putting in an alphanumeric password was cumbersome.Read full review...

Good product and still worth the price I paid

Overall a good receiver. The software takes some getting used to. I have a little problem with the HDMI switching but that is negligible. I love the sound that comes from my surround system. I am using the Energy True Classic 5.1 speakers.Read full review...

Just what I wanted

This was a present for my sister. I helped her hook things up and was delighted at all the available outlets. It was in excellent condition and works perfectly!
