      Hi TimH, Great! We're thrilled to hear you appreciate the built quality, good sound, and ease of set up of the receiver. Whether you choose to enjoy the warm sound of vinyl via the phono input, or stream music from your digital music collection, you’ve found a perfect match. Don’t forget the receiver’s A=B function lets you connect two pairs of speakers. You can easily switch between A or B or use them all together at the same time. Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam Sony_US

    Excellent value with very good features for under 200. If you are looking for a good quality and an amp that can power just about everything on a budget try auditioning these. You will be surprised at the performance for the price.

    This is one of the best budget amps you can buy! I absolutely love the “pure direct” feature for cleaner, richer and deeper tones. What really is neat is being able to connect 4 speakers and use them all at the same time. This Sony CRANKS!

    Needed a receiver that had a phono connection. It fit the bill very well . There are not very many receivers that you can get to connect a turntable to any more and not pay an arm and a leg for it. Got a hundred watts per channel and at a low price.

    I bought this so I could play records in my man cave. It works well hooked up to a couple of Bose book shelf speakers. Not an audiophile, but, I did think about purchasing a vintage unit...but, in the end, I wanted bluetooth so I went with the Sony - glad I did.

    We purchased this receiver to replace a far older model also by Sony, after suffering through continual sound problems of extreme static, and sound lost with almost every other word. One of us watches with a headset plugged into the front and the other without a headset, so we required a means to achieve that. After connecting our multi CD player, DVD Player and TV, he suggested a headset splitter to be able to duplicate what we had, and told us how to install it. After purchasing one, we did as he said, and it's working perfectly.

    I bought this receiver to hook up to my TV. I got tired of sound bars and peripheral speakers and went back to a 2 channel unit. It may not have all the ambiance of of the multi-channel units but it sounds great in my family room. The only minus is the lack of an optical input.
