 Solid entry level receiver with great features. September 22, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
As my first big box Home Theater system, I don't have anything to compare it to, but I feel the price was worth it.
The system looks great. The speakers are a decent size, and when set up, can look very attractive in a modern themed room. The receiver itself is very slick with with a nice design.
The receiver has plenty of hookups that will be suitable for most people. With 3 HDMI inputs, you should be able to hook up all your Hi-Definition components. One great feature is the ability to process the audio through the HDMI. Some receivers can't handle this and you have to deal with complex connections involving analog to digital, digital to analog, etc. This receiver is great for a PS3 owner because it can take advantage of the loss less sound formats. (Dolby TrueHD, DTS MA, etc.)
I haven't hooked up the included 1080p upscaling DVD player and don't know if I will because I have a PS3. Therefore I cannot comment on that component.
The remote is pretty weak. It has a hard time working from further distances and it is in no way universal. I would recommend a fairly high-end universal remote. I was dealing with three remotes and it wasn't pretty.
The included speaker cable is pretty standard and if you're running some cables under the carpet or through the wall or something, you will most likely need some longer cables to reach the surround speakers.
The sound is great. The powered 8 inch subwoofer really packs a punch for movies and games. The different standard-def audio options sound great with your cable box.
There is an auto calibration setup which consists of placing the included microphone at the same height and location you would be sitting. You then start the test and the speakers all spit out some white noise to tell the receiver how far away, how close to the other speakers, etc, everything is. Very useful. If you would rather do things yourself, each speaker can be individually adjusted to your liking.
All in all, I would say this system is a great bang for your buck.
Pros
-Nice design
-Nice sound
-Ample inputs
-Good price
Cons
-Speaker cable
-Included remote
Very happy with the Sony system October 21, 2008

I've had the Sony 7200 for 3 months and have nothing but quality clear sound. All the components are connected via HDMI except one. Components are Samsung LCD TV, Sony PS3, included up-convert 1080P DVD player, HD DirectTV, and the 8 year old VCR.
The included DVD player nearly matches the Blu-ray in picture and sound quality. They are controlled by a sweet Logitech universal remote. I like the TV and movie sound more than the entry/mid priced 7 year old Onkyo system it replaces. Sony 7200 provides high quality sound and plenty of gush in the highs and lows. It is definitely louder than the previous system. I had the base set at 5/8, and later tuned it down a bit to the middle. The base has a major league punch. For CD music listening, I'd say it ties with the Onkyo, which is fantastic. The Onkyo and the CRT TV are moved to the man-cave.
One thing I was looking for in this purchase was that it would provide plenty of volume. And it does. I have the volume meter turned to 20 to 25 for normal TV viewing, 15 to 18 for evening viewing, and 30-35 when viewing sports or movies with company. Believe me, 30 is loud, 35 is booming. I don't know how loud it gets and haven't read up on it. To me from 15 to 35 range is more than acceptable, anything louder is reserved for rock concerts, or to "blow off someone's clothes" I guess.
The build, including the speakers, are of high quality fit-&-finish and solid. I'd highly recommend this product as the home theatre center piece. Very pleased with all this performance for a nominal price.
 Speakers not so good November 20, 2008
The reviews above are accurate as it relates to the reciever. I was very happy with it and the fact that is has 1080p, lots of inputs/outputs and syncs with my Sony Bravia television. The speakers and sub are not so good and I would rate them poor. I know you are getting a lot in one box for the price but if I was going to do it again I would buy pieces vs. the big box. I have a set of Polk speakers and sub upstairs and they sound much better. I moved them downstairs and don't use the Sony speakers.
