The Most Amazingly Sounding Receiver You Will Ever Hear
As a longstanding Sony ES customer, I'll start off with the things I do not like about the STR-AZ7000ES: 1. No HDR10+ support. 2. No QMS support. 3. No QFT support. With that out of the way, this thing is worth every penny. I have owned a number of ES and non-ES AVR's over the past several decades, and nothing sounds as good as this thing. Setup and calibration is easy. The on-screen UI is easy. The web browser is great as it does everything the on-screen UI does. The iPhone app is simple but equally as effective. The remote control leaves a little to be desired, but it's not a train smash. The STR-AZ7000ES has range and power for days. It just keeps going. It does get a little warm (okay, very warm), so I added the AC Infinity Aircom T10 to keep it nice and cool. I highly recommend this for any AVR owner, as AVR's are notorious for running hot, even when they ship with their own in-built cooling fans. The 360SSM does sound quite innovative and interesting, but I prefer to watch content without it as I have a full 7.2.4 speaker system. If you have fewer speakers, 360SSM can help fill in the missing channels. The upmixing of 2-channel stereo music into Neural X is actually pretty good. I was originally a 2-channel purist for music, but Neural X does a great job of expressing all the high-frequency instrumentation and vocals across a 7.2.4 speaker system, while keeping all the low-end in the subs. As for movies, stop the press. This thing really shines especially in Dolby Atmos that has been properly mixed and engineered in the studio. In summary - do yourself a favour and get it!

Fantastic product marred by hissing noise
Heard positive reviews about this product, so brought this for my new 7.1.4 home theater setup to pair up with JBL HDI series speakers for F, C, R & Sub and Revel speakers for surround and Atmos. + Setup was easy + Well build system product weighs like a tonne. + Easier menus + Calibration was a breeze, mics supplied with a stand + Sounds are more lively and amazing + 360 SSM is awesome (if it's without the hiss) - The biggest disappointment is the hissing noise when 360SSM is enabled. Every menu change is followed by an audible hissing noise for a few seconds which is very very annoying.
