    Bought a house with pre-installed speaker system. Just needed a receiver with Bluetooth to connect to the wall posts. This unit and a little speaker wire (not included; wish it was) works perfectly. Basically plug and play. Speaker wire install is easy and Bluetooth setup is too.

    It installed in mintes, connected to my TV and DVD players and gives excellent sound quality. It makes the sound quality of the TV shows much clearer. I also like th Blue Tooth connectivity from my Cell Phoone.

    My last stereo, 20 years old, gave out and I decided (screaming and kicking), to enter the 21st century. I didn't realize how great Bluetooth was until I linked this stereo to my Firestick and powered up my 4 18 inch Technics speakers. They shake the house. The power is AWESOME. Great job Sony.

    Great product. My old Sony from Radio Shack (yes it was that old) finally gave up on me. This new Sony is sleek, powerful, easy to set up with my turntable speakers and such. And the cost was well within my budget. Highly recommend. Tlr4309

    Reliable Sony Receiver. Suitable for a first time stereo buyer who doesn't want to spend $$$$$ for high end stereo. Can hook up just about everything from a turntable to tape deck. You can even use it with your TV. The Bluetooth features is pretty cool, I use it with my portable devices for listen to music. Worth the money.

    Great purchase. A no frills stereo receiver. It does only a few things but does them very well. Bluetooth is excellent. But the whole reason to get this is for the phone input. For the price, it's a no brainer for a beginner setup that is respectable.
