Nice sony receiver July 8, 2008
The main reason why i choose this recever is that you can adjust the bass and treble of all the surround speakers. Has built in equalizer with 5 different presets. This was very important to me for voice quality on my center speaker. Im very happy with this receiver, with 3 hdmi inputs, it reduces the amount of wires drastically. As far as sound goes, it actually is much better than my harmon kardon and denon. Made my 2 front surround speaker that I didmt use before, sound awesome. Also has this really nice feature: If the words are not matching the voices on a show due to lag of your slow HDTV, the receiver can put a delay on the sound to match it up. Also has the ability to run 10 speakers at same time.
7.1, plus 2 more speakers on the "b" channel which i use for the pool patio. Not too hard to figure out how to use and i wont even use half of its features. Bought it open box for $500 on amazon, free ship. Cant beat the price for the features. My last sony receiver overheated. I recommend keeping any receiver well ventilated. Would definitely recommend this unit. Reason i took away a star for this is b/c, one: its not perfect, and its on-screen display is a bit awkard to use. switching sources to analog to Dolbe digital reduces the volume(this may be my fault, not sure. Good luck
 Great receiver April 21, 2008

This is a great receiver, period. I almost bought the lowest end ES model, but decided to go with the STR 1100. Sony has been getting an unfair bad rap on many of these review boards. I think these people are comparing the 2-3 entry level receivers with the high end stuff from Denon, HK, and then reporting how much better they are. WELL DUH! THe only thing that was a little bit of a headache was setup. As a few others have noted, it is a little on the difficult and time consuming level. But stick with it and you'll figure it out. I've already tested this product and it came thru with flying colors.
A Great Sony A/V Receiver April 7, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I just upgrade my old Sony TV to the Sony KDL46W3000 and need to also upgrade my A/V receiver. The Sony STRDG1100 was the best on the market for the money. The smooth integration, HDMI input and the capability to perform HDMI up conversion was all pluses. I did read and re-read the instructions for about a month, before I attempted to do the install and I had to go to the Sony store to ask a few questions. But it was worth it, I highly recommend the Sony STRDG1100.

This unit is terribly non-user friendly and has very poorly written instructions with circular references that drove me crazy. It's nearly impossible to control this receiver without having the TV on (in order to use it's GUI control). I returned this receiver and bought a Pioneer that serves all my purposes for half the price. It took 30 minutes to set up the Pioneer, program remote and understand more of it's control functions than I was able to do during the week that I had the Sony before returning it and a well-used "instruction" manual. Even the functions that I did learn how to use were awkward to access. Technically, the Sony may be excellent for all I know, but it's not worth much to me if it's so cumbersome to use. KUDOS TO AMAZON for their easy return process and timely refund!
Awesome Value (Features vs Cost) March 21, 2008
I needed to upgrade my old A/V Receiver (also a Sony) to something that supported HDMI In/Out. I couldn't be happier with the DG1100. There are more features in this box than I will ever need... but a true audiophile would appreciate them. Initial setup took only a few minutes.
I have always been pleased with Sony products... and the DG1100 hasn't changed my mind.
