Speaking as a self-described "audiophile" (but a true audiophile with deep pockets would likely laugh), this was one of the best gifts I've given to myself in recent years (as I have a fairly large music library of nearly 600 albums of 1/3 vinyl, 2/3 CDs and some cassettes). Bought mine back in March--used to be $200, but when I saw it for $150 any hesitation went out the window and I grabbed it. I have been in love with it ever since. Fabulous sound and power (do you really need more than 100 watts per channel?), great remote control (not used to that, believe it or not), and it lives up to Sony quality. Powers my vintage components perfectly: > MCS Series 6202 Belt-Driven Turntable (had it since early 80s) > Nacamichi BX-300 Cassette Deck > Sony DVP-NS725P Disc Player (DVD but used mainly for CDs - audio-only connection) > LG TV connected via optical-to-analog adapter > KEF Reference Series 103/3 Stereo Speakers Interesting observation about the way the ports are labeled on the back: what would traditionally be identified as a tape deck port (with IN/OUT) is just "Input 4," and while it's connected to my tape deck for playback, the REC-OUT is connected to a USB audio adapter to digitally record anything (mostly vinyl of course) to my laptop for mastering and iPod/digital library access. The Bluetooth connectivity is awesome as well with powerful range - great for playing music from mobile devices (phone and iPod Classic with BT adapter). The front line-in 3.5 port, identified as a "Portable" is also a great feature. At first, I was surprised that there was no input for optical, however since digital-to analog adapters are inexpensive and readily available, I think it's best to leave it that way. Would rather have the option, rather than an optical-only port that would otherwise go unused unless one had a component that required it. HOWEVER, if I were to make any improvements, it would be to add a USB Out port (preferably on the front), for digital recording on a PC. However again, since adapters are inexpensive and accessible, and for the price I paid for this device, I ain't gonna complain. Front level analog balance, bass and treble controls would also be nice, but you have access to all that through the menu. If you feel due for a simple, powerful and awesome stereo receiver/amplifier upgrade without breaking your monthly budget, this is a winner.

Typical Sony Quality - Sound Quality is Excellent. AND when used with a higher bit rate Internet Stream (Amazon Music/ Apple Music) the sound is deeper and clearer which is to be expected from "High-Resolution Audio" NOW the facts: 2-Ch. Stereo Receiver with Bluetooth & Phono Input for Turntables - Black. 4 2 channel inputs. 100 Watts - 8 Ohms Get good speakers and you will really appreciate them with this unit.

It was very surprising to hear the sound quality from this cheap Sony receiver. Very nice sounding that’s better than my higher end Denon 7.2 channel AVR. Bluetooth hookup is instantaneous with my iPhone 7 and receiver turns on automatically when I touch it’s name. Best sound quality is achieved with RCA connection and clean setup with minimal cable interference from interconnects. Remote is very functional and simple which makes it so much easier to manage. Very powerful amp at 100W per channel which easily drives my Polk Monitor 70’s at loud volumes. I made a very clean hookup using monster gold connectors and cables. Speaker toe in with rubber isolation. Sounds clean and audiophile quality. Radio has 30 stations preset. Very clear reception. Looks like Sony engineers made a serious effort to get back into the audio market once more. I highly recommend this. You won’t regret this purchase.
