All of fetures,build & it's a Sony.
Weakness:
none First I would like to say is my 545 rocks! Now for all you guys who say all you hear is Hissing. Stop being so damn cheap & replace every conect you have & buy some real cables. I'm running nothing but Monster Cable, & all I hear is ............. get the point. You will never you know the true potenial of your equipment unless you replace the blood lines, this goes for speaker wire too. Lesson over. Similar Products Used: Pioneer,Sony |

Weakness:
no input selector on remote. I thought it was about time to make a change from anologe to digital. I did alot of shopping around before i made my decision, I looked at a alot of receivers before i purchased the sony Kenwood,Jvc and Pioneer. I have been a diehard Pioneer man for years and I thought i would give Sony a try and i am not disapointed. It is very good product for the money. Similar Products Used: pioneer pro-logic receiver. |

Strength:
Lots of power great sound
Weakness:
none i went to circuit city with one intention and it was to buy a reciever. When i saw the sony i thought oh that is a nice one and besides all i had was 300 dollars with me so i asked the man about it and he said it was a great reciever with alot of power. So i thought about it and then bought it when i tried it i loved it i did notic a little hissing but not to much to worry about i dont think. Similar Products Used: sharp |

Strength:
digital inputs, good sound
Weakness:
Bad Hissing Noise I really should have done some research before buying this receiver but I headed out to the store with the idea of getting myself a good receiver for a great deal. I saw this Sony 545 and it had everything I wanted, digital and dts decoding, a ton of audio and video inputs, and nice power. After a while I began to notice an excessive hissing coming out of all my speakers when nothing was playing through them. I brought it to a friends house, hooked it up and there it was, that damn hissing noise which was much more excessive than with the receiver he had. Well, right now the receiver is in Bristol, Penn being worked on and I picked up the 845 model. It's definitly worth the extra dollars. Similar Products Used: JBL and Yamaha Receiver |
