    I picked up my product curbside with no problem. When I installed it in my system, it worked just as it was supposed to. I am delighted to find a replacement for my old Sony Stereo Receiver. It had finally given out after years of usage. Hopefully, the new one will give me as many years of service or more.

    Replaced a 40 year old receiver amplifier with this. The sound is great. It looks good on my shelf. Plenty of RCA inputs for my existing equipment. The Bluetooth input capability is great, my wife loves connecting it to her phone to listen to music.

    This is the second Sony stereo receiver we've purchased for work. We use it to play music over the loudspeaker system in a warehouse. This is a very nice piece of equipment, especially enjoy the BT and streaming. Easy setup, powerful. Highly recommend!

    Just what I needed in my family room. A simple method to listen to 2 separate sets of speakers with A/B switch capability, via Bluetooth or the radio. Not part of a larger home theater. Sound is great and Bluetooth works flawlessly. Recommend.

    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.

    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.

    I've seen a few reviews on this amp. It did not disappoint. I am impressed with the power and clarity. I have a much more powerful/expensive amp, but it makes my speakers sound bad, but the Sony amp does a great job with my KEF LS50's.

    This is a great budget surround sound receiver. It has all the connections needed and sounds great. It has plenty of power for my Infinity Reference speakers in a mid-size room. It sounds equally good with my music, games, and movies.

    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.
