  • Good headroom and dynamics, Inclusion of both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth unique in its price class, Excellent mix of networking, USB, and Airplay features, Good video pass-through quality for its price point
  • GUI navigation and set up menus still miserable, Sounds less good for music than for movies, No on-screen menu overlay
  • We've mentioned it a couple of times already, but it bears repeating: The Sony STR-DN1030 receiver was quite the pleasant surprise. Its brawny, dynamic sound and excellent networking features prove Sony still knows a thing or two when it comes making a ...

  • Abstract:  Of course, all that wireless flexibility comes at a price. You're not going to find all those things in a budget receiver. Wait a minute—our fact checkers are tapping me on the shoulder. What? What? This receiver sells for $499?...

  • I have no complaints with the Sony STR-DN1030 A/V receiver's actual audio performance: It was solid and enjoyable from soup to nuts. On the usability side, however, this new Sony falls a bit short. Its onscreen display implementation is my primary com- p...

  • Built in WiFi and Bluetooth, Wide range of Network Features,
  • Limited Zone 2 Functionality, Confusing Remote, Poor User Interface
  • Every year, receiver manufacturers have to make tough choices about what to put in their receivers and what to cut in order to keep prices the same but still include new technologies. I think Sony did a great job of prioritizing what was most importan...

  • The Sony STR-DN1030 is the only midrange receiver with built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Its networking features also include built-in AirPlay, plus plus support for DLNA, Pandora, and Slacker. And the STR-DN1030's sound quality is excellent
  • The STR-DN1030's five HDMI inputs are fewer than many competitors have. The user interface is particularly bad and makes it frustrating to use some of the streaming music services. And the STR-DN1030's multiroom functionality is very limited
  • The Sony STR-DN1030 is the only midrange AV receiver with built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, making it one of best receiver values this year.

  • Sensationally exciting sound, open soundstage, clear, crisp dialogue, weighty, taut bass, precise steering of surround effects, good build
  • Unintuitive menu system
  • It always takes a special AV amp to boss this £500 sector, but the Sony definitely has the sonic credentials needed to take the fight to Onkyo et al.Next month's Group Test looks set to be a real heavyweight bout.See all our home cinema amplifier Best Buy...

  • The Sony STR-DN1030 has room for improvement. But overall we recommend this AV receiver to consumers who are after a device with a lot of good features....

  • Prima all-round geluid, Goede selectie aansluitingen, Originele en handige extra's
  • Minder intuïtieve set-up, Onoverzichtelijke menu's, Geen HDMI-ingang op frontpaneel
  • Tellen we alles samen, dan zijn we geneigd om de Sony STR-DN1030 te omschrijven als een diamant waar nog enkele ruwe kantjes aan vast zitten. De klankmatige prestaties zijn top voor dit segment, en originele extra's zoals Party Streaming openen nieuw...
