Absolutely an incredible A/V Receiver. It Sounds incredible. You may not get Bluetooth and casting functionality with it, but the sound quality you do get with it is phenomenal. It is meant to be in a rack with other AV equipment and installed in maybe a home automation system or something. The room tuning works great and and seems to get fairly accurate results in terms of distance. I love it, I don't need Bluetooth, or Google cast in my receiver. Not sure why you would even want to cast directly to the receiver when you can just cast to the TV.

good machine but came way to late

I bought the Sony STRZA5000ES, and I've been playing around with an Atmos 5.1.4 setup. I highly recommend going to the Dolby website to download configuration instructions before buying as I was able to use all my existing equipment to setup the Atmos configuration using this receiver. I was not in the market for a receiver with several other bells and whistles around HD radio, Satellite Radio, Internet Radio, Apple Airplay as I use a Sonos Connect which provides whole house sound which now integrates my new Sony receiver into the system. I ran the Auto calibration tool, and went through all the setup questions which worked pretty good. I might still need to go back and fine tune some of the settings, and I did say no to the last question on the calibration which asks you something about maximizing matching XXXX which I found to give you too much sub action. I find the sound amazing and I get pulled into each movie I watch .... I was just channel surfing last night, and came across Black Sails on HBO which had a battle scene with canon's which felt like my couch was under fire, and raining scenes with the drip sounds are quite compelling. I'm very happy with the Sony purchase, and I'm now waiting to buy a new Sony OLED television to go with the receiver now.
