Flexible and (mostly) easy to drive ; Impressive sound ; Great value

Some coarseness and lack of weight when used at high volume levels

Excellent value ; speedy auto set-up ; powerful, substantial sound ; clear dialogue

Very little

Best receiver up to £300, Awards 2010. The ’DH810 is a fantastic, affordable amp, and the perfect foil for an entry-level home cinema system

Good value, easy setup, good sound quality, good features

Only four HDMI inputs, video upscaling not the best

Picture and sound quality Range of inputs, specifically optical and HDMI Consistent Sony Bravia menus to complement my other Bravia devices Bravia link Speed of start up Low operating noise

No internet based services e.g. 4OD, ITV player, Sky player No DLNA

Easy setup, good quality sound

Unknown reason it blew up! 2 month out of warrenty now costing £200 to repair

excellent surround sound

a little difficult to set up with sky but got there in the end, the manual could do with covering this in more detail.

excellent for all the gizmos you can connect to the av system and love the 7.1 sound

Good looking and well-built as you would expect. Good range of features especially at this product level.

Not a patch on my old STRDB940 which was only being replaced because the remote control died and couldn't be replaced. The manual jumps from one thing to another all over the place and looks like it was written by several different people who never met...

3d capability and plenty of hdmi sockets very good. HD,DD & PL audio also very good

Setting up skyhd with hdmi and optical for sound took quite a while to work out, The manual can be very confusing,I should imagine a lot of people would miss out on the best audio/visual,due to this manual.
