Posted .Hi Happy, That's amazing! We're thrilled to hear it sounds great with your vintage speakers. 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! Thanks for choosing Sony. -Sam

Sony Stereo Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great bookshelf stereo. I bought it to replace an older “boom box”. This Sony has Bluetooth connectivity. So it makes streaming music easy and sounds great. I paired it with Sony’s SSCS5 5” 3way bookshelf speakers. Sound is amazing.

Great Basic System
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s simple but works great. Bluetooth connection to phone is so simple. Drives a set of Kef bookshelf speakers in the bedroom. Amazing sound, and no sub. Does not have sub output, but can connect with speaker wires if necessary.

Solid full featured FM receiver/amp
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid receiver/amp. Clean smooth sound. Perhaps a little dry, but that is better than adding "color". Plenty of power, lots of inputs. Only possible con is you need to use the remote to fully control the unit. Can't beat the price.

Excellent flexible tuner / amplifier
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaces my 30 year old Sony. Currently use it with Bluetooth, an old iPod (yes still working!) a CD player and the FM tuner for local stations. Pairs well with my original Sony speakers. Great flexibiliy most easily accesed through the complex remote, luckily paired with a clear instruction book (a real rarity these days.). Very satisfied.

Great quality and price point!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great receiver for this prices point and very user friendly. I hooked this up to my older JBL 12 inch speakers and placed them on my garage for audio while I use my home gym. I didn’t want to break the bank because it’s in a garage. But this receiver is blasting my neighbors out lol I love opening the garage and making the whole neighborhood hear it! The Bluetooth is perfect it connects with no issues and reconnects after the power is turned off then I turn it on again for the next use. The radio works perfect with the supplied antenna no static at all on AM or FM. The remote has all functions it fast forwards the tracks and songs fast and perfectly. I would say for 200 bucks this is a great choice for inside the house or a garage or backyard application. Another great product form Sony!

Great receiver for the price
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted a basic receiver that I felt was a good balance between power and price. Only needed 2 channels, but liked the addition of Bluetooth. In reference to the bluetooth, I like that once I've connected it with my phone, all I have to do is find it on the bluetooth list in the future and I can start streaming music.
