    Very happy with this purchase. My daughter has started collecting used vinyls from the 60's and 70's and they sound so good. We bought this Sony Receiver, a pair of Sony bookshelf Speakers and a Sony Turntable. Excellent combination.

    My Sony Stereo Receiver is hooked up to my record player. I've had these records for years, and haven't listened to them, but due to the stay at home order, my wife and I revitalized our basement with a bar and a sound system. The set up was easy and we can listen to records and Spotify from my phone. Great sound quality for the price.

    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.
