Review on 🎢 Sony STRDH770: 7.2 Channel Home Theater AV Receiver with 4K Capability - Browse, Compare, and Buy Now! by Nick Narvasa

Revainrating 5 out of 5

HDR compatible with PS4 Pro

I was hesitant to buy this receiver as I read several reviews that said PS Pro might not work as Best Buy also sells it and direct by the road I went ahead and bought it there for the same price as the Revain. Setup was easy as I am familiar with this range of receivers (strdh540). I can stream a 4k signal from a pro to a receiver and TV. The problem I think people have is that they only have a premium HDMI cable that comes with the pros. You need an extra 60Hz 18GB HDMI 2.0 cable from the receiver to the TV for everything to work and work well. Much better sound than strdh540, Some buttons are missing on the remote but all functions are in the application menu. Easy to calibrate with a simple setup menu using the included microphone, although I set up a few things via the app's menu such as: B. additional volume and speaker configuration. I love how you can rename inputs to properly show what's connected. Current SetupSamsung UN50JU6500 (not hdr uhdtv) :(SONY PS4 PROSTRDH770All cables hdmi 2.0 60Hz 18gb Edit: As my 2015 Samsung 4k TV is not HDR model I can't tell if the receiver is HDR compatible. Update 11-28- 16After doing some research during the holidays, I found that different TV manufacturers refer to the HDR settings of their TVs with different names. Samsung "HDMI UHD Color" Sony "HDMI Enhanced" Panasonic "HDMI HDR Setting" LG "HDMI Ultra HD Deep Color" I have a Samsung and after turning on the UHD setting, Uncharted 4 and The Last of Us remastered are automatically recognized by the TV HDR compatible. As far as I can tell, the receiver is fully HDCP 2.2 compliant, with no connection or handshake to my PS4 Pro and Samsung TV. Again, make sure your TV is set to HDR. I can't stress the cables enough. Not all HDMI cables are created equal. HDMI 2.0 60Hz 18GB I got mine here at Revain. no connection or handshake with my PS4 Pro and Samsung TV. Make sure again Make sure your TV is set to HDR.
