Overview

The Sony STR-AN1000 is a 7.2-channel AV receiver built to serve as the hub of a modern home theater system. It supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X object-based audio decoding, creating a three-dimensional soundstage that places effects precisely around and above the listener. With 165 watts per channel (6 ohms, 1 kHz, 1 channel driven), it delivers ample power for most home theater speaker configurations. Sony's proprietary Digital Cinema Auto Calibration IX and 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technologies analyze your room and optimize speaker output, ensuring balanced, accurate sound regardless of room shape or speaker placement.

On the video side, the receiver is equipped with six HDMI 2.1 inputs and two outputs, supporting 8K resolution and 4K at 120Hz — making it ready for the latest gaming consoles and media players. HDR format support includes Dolby Vision, HDR10, HLG, and IMAX Enhanced. Connectivity extends well beyond wired inputs: built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Chromecast, Spotify Connect, Apple AirPlay, and Google Assistant voice control give you flexible access to music and smart home integration. The "Works With Sonos" compatibility is a notable addition for households already invested in the Sonos ecosystem. Zone 2 and Zone 3 outputs allow audio distribution to additional rooms, making this receiver a versatile centerpiece for whole-home entertainment.
