QuestionAll that I have right now is a Samsung Galaxy Note 5 smartphone and a Sony SRS,X77 Bluetooth Spkr. I want to have a better sound, system, cost efficient, & not rely on BT. Where do I start? This receiver? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Asked 8 years ago by Alycat.
- Answer Depends on how much you want to spend and what you are looking for. This receiver is great for driving a pair of speakers. I mainly use it to connect my phone as a source of music. But you can connect a CD player, ipod (w/rca plugs), etc (all analog). But none of the connections are digital except for Bluetooth. This receiver with a pair of quality speakers will outperform any Bluetooth speaker out there...but you will be limited if you want this to grow in the future. Its limited to only a pair of speakers. Figure the price of the receiver ($150) plus a quality pair of speakers (approx $200-$300 pair), plus speaker wire ($50) and your in it for $400-$500...it will sound super good...but still an entry very limited system.

QuestionIs this receiver compatible with my 40 year old Bose 501 speakers?
Asked 3 years ago by NAILS.
- Answer Probably. I’m using mine with Bose speakers that are nearly 25 years old and they work well together. The older speakers should be fine if they’re connected properly.

QuestionI have a pair of JBL L-100 speakers that I bought in the 70s that has 100 Watt rateing. Is this receiver too much for them?
Asked 3 years ago by Cowboy.
- Answer It’s rated at 100 watts per side so you should be fine. My old (1980’s) Advents handle it without a problem. Though I admit I can’t remember their rating.

QuestionWhat amplifier class is this ? Class AB or Class D??
Asked 4 years ago by Jon.
- Answer It appears to be a push-pull class AB design. Class D would present some difficulty in a AM broadcast receiver given the RF interference they produce.

QuestionCan this receiver power a center speaker as well as left & right speakers?
Asked 4 years ago by Stereofan.
- Answer No - this is a 2- channel receiver for left and right audio. It does have an a/b switch so it can have 2 sets of speakers wired to it. Even if you wired a third speaker using the a/b switch and had them both playing at the same time, you could have a center speaker wired but it would be playing either left or right audio and not what a center speaker is supposed to play. I hope this helps.

QuestionCan I play A & B speakers together with headphones I have bluetooth I play drums and that would work out great to hear both external speakers along with headphones ?
Asked 4 years ago by rockabillyroger.
- Answer As a drummer myself, I understand what you are trying to do, but this receiver does not support Bluetooth out functions. The bluetooth is only for audio source input, for example, playing music from your phone or iPad through this receiver. It will not Bluetooth out to speakers or headphones.
