The AV receiver is a central component in a home theater or audio system, providing essential features and high-quality performance for audio and video processing. In this video, I unbox, setup, and review the Sony ES STR-AZ5000ES 11 channel AV receiver. Overall, this receiver is a stellar performer with class leading Dolby Atmos processing and spatial audio.

The best thing about a Sony AVR is the sound of its two channel stereo. I actually preferred the stereo sound of my previous £400 Sony STR dn1080 budget AVR over the mid price £2,000 Denon 6500 AVR. Punchy, agile, and more dynamic, the sound of Sony will always have a place in my heart ❤

I have both the Sony STR-AZ5000ES and Marantz SR8015, and they are both very good for music. The Marantz does have a warmer, sweeter sound. It also has a phono input which the Sony lacks. I really ❤ the 8015.

​​@@rafacqoh man you could be my savior. Doubt has been racking my brain for the last 4 months cuz I can't decide which one to buy sr8015 or az5000es. It's going to be my life's very first AVR. I already bought full front stage with Focal Aria, cuz in a review the guy told they have the wider soundstage amongst Kef, Polk, Monitor Audio etc. So my doubt is if it would be just too much "wideness" if I match them with the AZ5000ES. -I'm afraid of xbox marantz bug. -I bought a Sony Blu ray player (800M2)

Imo whatever Sony is doing w/ DSP in their new ES AVR line is working wonders in terms of immersion. Denon/Marrantz's Audessey and Dirac are objectively amazing, but Sony has something going for them that the rest dont have and its a high level experience w just one click, so much less tinkering.

I agree 100%, let me tell you my experience....I had a Denon avrs750h and I was happy with my 5.1.2 set up and audyssey room correction, then I bought Sony str-an1000 and after calibration without changing speakers wow! My speakers literally came alive....they sounded amazing .. That spatial mapping is something else .... I really felt INSIDE the movies...even my wife noticed a difference Then a month ago I bought an Onkyo tx rz50 for a really good price, now I have a 5.1.4. I ran Dirac live and it is a Pain to calibrate 17 positions. Dirac is very sensitive.., lots of error messages, output noise too low...ambient noise too loud.... clipping....it took me a few days to complete it. And when I played a movie in Atmos the sound was.....ok. there's a lack in the bass department, the sound is very very clear specially in the center channel and The separation of every channel is very precise...and..... that's it. I wasn't blown away. ... Sony on the other hand ...the immersion is amazing.... The phantom speakers are there lol... I have compared them and Sony wins in the sirround department. And swhen it comes to "being immerse"... Sony takes you there. I will sell both and buy the az5000es.

I bought a Sony STR-790 it can do 7.2 or 5.2.2 I currently have it running 5.1.2 due to the layout of my room but I will say this I’ve never been happier, in all my life of being into home theater this has to be my favorite setup how ever I would like to end up buying the speakers for this receiver the only thing I’m not gonna change is the subwoofer as it’s already low enough for me especially playing video games on ps5 or hoping over to a streaming platform that supports atmos.

Dude, at best buy they had the sony 1000 especially i believe, it's basically this reciever but the lowest one or whatever and it was open box for like 400 bucks !!!! You should check that out maybe! I was so tempted to get that but I wanted pre outs and it's 7.2 as well I believe. I ended getting onkyo rz 50 for 1200 and it's my second reciever I've ever owned and I really really like it but I hear the sony is better with surround sound so that's what I really wanted but like I said I really like what I have

I have a STR-DH770 from 2017 it was $300 when I bought it and it has been pretty much trouble free over the years. Only issues has been occasional HDMI connectivity issues and Bluetooth pairing. The Bluetooth pairing is very crappy. Sometimes it will connect within seconds and other times it won’t work at all requiring you to unplug the receiver from the wall. Very annoying so I don’t normally use the Bluetooth anymore. Overall it’s been a great receiver and would like to get another Sony but Sony seems a bit short on the typical features like pre-outs on receivers. The competition has a full set of pre-outs and Dirac for $1,600. Planning on upgrading and leaning more towards a Denon or Onkyo.

If you crank up the volume after running room calibration and enabling the 360 Spatial Audio mapping you will hear serious hiss/hum out of the speakers. I had to return this particular model after experiencing this big time. Side note, you won't hear it at first especially at low volumes but it's very present at louder volumes. Hopefully they fix this issue as the sound was fantastic. I had the older ES5000 model for years and this never happened. Not sure if I just had a lemon or if this is a common occurrence across this new ES line. I’m currently using Anthem with no issue.
@trauma50disaster1
@trauma50disaster1 5 месяцев назад
Well you hear the noise with the movie paused or a silent part of a movie but I don't hear it at normal listening. Also, setting such as engineer make it worse and a couple other settings or having speaker line levels way too high. Of course the noise should not be detectable unless your ear is at it.

@@chebrubin That shouldn’t matter. A lot of people haven’t reported this issue and he didn’t notice it at first at lower volumes. I don’t see what you are getting at. The base amplifiers and receiver in general don’t change much generation to generation. They added software that’s an evolutionary upgrade from their last calibration software. Software they’ve introduced in other products a few years ago. A $2,000+ receiver shouldn’t have this issue at all considering a $300 one from the same company that’s well past its warranty doesn’t have this problem at all.

The cabinet is way too expensive. Besides, one of the most important factors when choosing a TV/AVR cabinet is being able to dismantle and reassemble the cabinet, all while keeping the components in place! I can't stress enough how important this will become for one, especially if one is looking to add or upgrade in the future! I tried to pass you a link to a fabulous TV/AVR cabinet, which btw cost less than £180 and it also has an extremely low profile, which is important if one wishes to have their TV imperfect Line of Sight. But either RU-vid or this channel wouldn't accept it. If interested, look me up.

I have some native Auro-3D music discs and the Auro-3D recording wins over Atmos (mostly artificial) music mixes if you care about natural and detailed immersive sound. SACD fans and audiophiles will love native Auro-3D. For us, is just great being able to choose between different sound formats and different speaker layouts. Atmos is no silver bullet.

That might be the ugliest front to a receiver I’ve seen in the last 10 years and the onscreen menu compared to Marantz is terrible. Also, zero room treatment and poorly positioned speakers but yeah sure, peak Atmos.

Looks are subjective. I can’t treat every room with a home theater in my house. My main theater is properly treated.

If you go back a couple videos he pulled all his panels in preparation to paint the room. Also: have you ever seen a Sony ES Receiver? The button vomit is ‘tradition’. Sony includes a cover that hides all that stuff and you can just use the on screen display. But, again, if it DIDN’T have all the buttons the Sony faithful would lose their minds. It’s like how all the Porsche snobs insist on 5 binnacles even though everything can be displayed on the center screen.

I care about performance, not how pretty it is. It’s in a rack.

It does not have a phono input with ground , that is a deal breaker for me.. i still like old school inputs just like front panel buttons

its an avr not a 2ch audiophile setup, it makes sense they took old garbage off.

I agree with you, thus another reason I replaced my Sony STR-AZ5000ES with a Marantz SR8015.
