4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent sound 3 Oct 2012
By Ocky
Amazon Verified Purchase
The STR DN1030 AV receiver gives an excellent sound, we are using it in a 7.1 speaker mode with Wharfedale main speakers and KEF surround and base speakers. The speaker connection is fiddly especially with thick speaker cable and there is only one set of speakers provided for. Multiple video inputs via HDMI or composite connections giving smooth switching between components, TV, blu-ray, PVR, games boxes. The DN1030 also has Apple Airplay available for use with Apple iPad (etc.) or download software updates. However, setting up the router is fiddly and can take some patience to do so, the user guide is not very helpful, the on screen GUI takes some getting used to and is not very intuitive to use, but is better than spending hours on your knees. Zone 2 (in another room or 'zone') provides additional speaker connection via a second amplifier via a pair of phono cables, this is misleading as all you can get in zone 2 is the receiver, SA-CD/CD or 'source'. None of the digital inputs (TV, blu-ray, game, etc.) can be used in zone 2 so is quite limited if you want to listen to the TV audio output as an example. To connect an Apple iPad to, this is very easy to do providing you use a Wi-Fi router, not a Mi-Fi router, to connect, this is not made clear in the user guide and the Sony shops don't know about this either. Although the connection is automatic using Airplay, the DN1030 does not revert to the last input once the iPad is switched off. A USB connection is available for connecting iPod or iPhone for video playback, we have not tried this. All in all a good receiver but the user guides do need a look at to remove any ambiguity and clear instructions.

For the past few years I have owned the Sony STR-DG710 AV Amp/Receiver. This AV Amplifier has served me well. I also have a collection of multi-channel SACDs but could never play them in full 5.1 surround sound as my previous amplifier would not decode PCM 5.1.
Within a couple of hours out of the box the Sony STR-DG710 was wirelessly connected to my router, updated and auto calibrated. It was a lot easier than the previous amp as the settings are all menu driven on the TV’s screen. It is used in conjunction with a Sony KDL-32D3000 TV, a Sony BDP-S780 Blu-ray/SACD Player and a Samsung Smart PVR. These devices work flawlessly via Amazon Basics High Speed HDMI cables. The amplifier is driving a Bose Acoustimass 6 speaker system. I flicked out the plastic caps from the speaker terminals to connect the speakers with banana plugs. A lot easier than poking speaker wires into tiny holes.
The amplifier plays my 5.1 surround SACDs in rich, full, spacious dynamic sound via HDMI PCM.
It also plays Freeview via the Samsung Smart PVR in 5.1 surround. Blu-ray movies sound better than any cinema that I have been ever been in. I cannot comment on the 3D capabilities as I don’t have a 3D TV.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the effort! 5 Jan 2013
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the best amplifier I have owned!
Surround modes, HiFi, and WiFi are all awesome.
I would recommend anyone purchasing this amp also purchased all interconnects at the same time. I didn't have a HDMI cable when I started setting it up, so I couldn't get the on-screen menus on my TV (impossible). As soon as I acquired a HDMI cable and had full assess to menus, it didn't take long. Auto cal with the microphone supplied takes seconds!....and now I have a calibrated surround system, I know what I have been missing.
I have it configured to use the optical output from my Freesat TV, and the surround sound produced is a whole new experience when compared to my previous amp (10 years old with no autocal facility).
The internet radio function doesn't hold as many stations as I expected. I have "Tune-in" app on phone that gets stations I cant get on this amp.
I definately recommend downloading a media share app for your smartphone to allow streaming music to this amp.
