      Hi Jkim0528, That's awesome! We're very pleased to hear that your son likes his new 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. When you factor in the low-profile design, we’re sure you’ve found the flexibility and performance you’ve been looking for! -Sam Sony_US

    I liked everything about this receiver until I got to connecting the speaker wires. They are cheap spring clips and the hole for the wire is so small that I had to trim away most of the conductor to get a wire to fit.
