For some reason, the STR-DN1080 incorrectly determined the Debut B6 bookshelfs were "large" speakers with a high crossover at 120Hz. The STR-DN1080 calibration microphone Sarah Tew/CNETĪfter auto-setup we felt the sound was rather dark and opaque. Most receiver auto setup systems use mono mics, so we hoped the STR-DN1080's setup results would be better than average. To get started, we ran the Sony STR-DN1080's DCAC EX calibration system, which uses a rather unusual-looking plastic stereo mic.

Setupįor this review we used a pair of ELAC Debut B6 bookshelf speakers in the front-left and -right positions, an ELAC Debut C5 center-channel speaker, ELAC Debut B5s as surrounds, Klipsch RP-140SA height speakers, and a Klipsch R-110SW subwoofer with the STR-DN1080. This has been replaced by the less-interesting "Phantom Surround Back" technology, which lets you simulate a seven-speaker configuration with only five speakers. One feature from the 1070 that seems to have slipped quietly into the waiting night is the ability to add wireless rear speakers. It's also improved from previous versions and lets you assign music to Sony equipment more easily or change inputs. The receiver also includes Sony's own multiroom system - which has had a much-needed name change from SongPal Link to Music Center.
