    I was excited to buy this receiver with all the good reviews but was disappointed once I powered it on. The receiver seemed to lack in the bass and mid range area but had decent highs. I returned it and went back to using my 30 year old Sony that produces 10 times the audio quality even using a cheap Bluetooth receiver and a pair of RCA cables

      Hi Perfect, We regret to hear that the unit had to be returned. his is usually not the case for our stereo receivers nor the experience we want you to have. This stereo receiver has a treble and bass adjustment to ensure that our customers are getting the optimal listening experience. I hope you consider our Sony products in the future. Thank you for sharing your feedback. -Sam Sony_US

    I bought this stereo because of all of the inputs and outputs that it has. It is great. Although I have not figured out how to use the remote control to get a desired radio station. And can I connect a dipole FM antenna to the Antenna connector? I've connected the suplied FM antenna as instructed.

    I want a stereo receiver that was a reasonable price. I did not need a 300 or 400 watt receiver. This just what I needed. I really like that it has a remote. There is enough inputs to connect what ever you want to connect to it.
