Sony @ CEDIA - 26 screenshots of the PSP-inspired receiver GUI

by Matt Burns, posted Sep 16th 2006 at 5:57PM

Sony has big plans to reinvent A/V receiver's GUIs. Even though receivers have been equipped with on-screen menus for a couple of years now, we have never seen one that the less-then-technically-inclined can use efficiently. But Sony has taken the cross-bar interface from the PSP along with the upcoming PS3 and worked it into the STR-DA5200ES. They demo'd the interface for us but it just wasn't good 'nough for our readers; we wanted more. Thus we present to you an internal Sony Powerpoint slideshow showing everything the STR-DA5200ES GUI has to offer. NOTE: We stripped out the extra stuff around the images so you can get a better look at the GUI.

26 screenshots follow after the link.

That looks very nice. Is this a quality reciever otherwise though? My understanding is that Sony isnt known for incredible audio products. I'm in the market for a new reciever myself and may be interested in this if the audio quality is good too.

No sony is not usually considered very good on thier regular audio receivers and thier es line is ok but for the money you can get a mucg better sounding receiver from yamaha or onkyo
