Sony announces new A/V receivers with Google Cast support

Sony has announces a slew of home entertainment products, but we are especially interested in a couple. The STR-DN860 and STR-DN1060 are a couple A/V receivers that promise an astounding streaming experience, as well as the sound quality you can expect from a company like Sony.

But what is it that really makes these receivers special? What caught my eye was that these happen to come with Google Cast support, something we sure hope more manufacturers can start adopting. They also support Airplay, Bluetooth and other standards, but all these features won’t come cheap. These are priced at $499.99 and $599.99, accordingly.

Opinion: I really wish more affordable products came with this feature. It can’t be too hard to add, right?!
