      Hi siztsc, Awesome! We're very grateful for this positive feedback! 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! Thank you for choosing Sony! Jay Sony_US

    I replaced a 43 yr old Kenwood receiver that was in need of repair but because of it's age, it wasn't cost effective. This Sony was highly rated and the cost was in line with what I wanted to pay,because of MY age. It doesn't have all the options I had b/4 but it does have a phono connection that I wanted. The base doesn't seem to be good as the Kenwood and it doesn't have a AM radio but for the price it is satisfactory for my needs.

    functionality is great. sound quality matches the price point. You hear the sound fine and it is basic. There is not a lot of depth in the low frequencies nor definition in the high end, but it is not bad. I got the unit on sale for $125. So a great deal overall.
