    Very easy to setup and bluetooth is straightforward. I installed this product out in the bay area and can control the music via bluetooth from the whole garage. Even the paintbooth! Insignia sells one a few dollars cheaper. Go with this one. You will not regret!

    I purchased this to power a pair of outdoor speakers on my patio and could not be happier. It sounds great connected to the main AV system in the living room and is perfect for connecting directly to my phone via Bluetooth. My outdoor rock speakers have never sounded better.

    Purchased this unit in order to have Bluetooth capabilities. I have of vinyl, cds, and thousands of digital. I needed one unit which could handle turntable, cd changer, and digital. This unit worked well with my wired speakers ( I only use Bluetooth speakers when I don’t care what my music sounds like) and that would be never. So if you like your music clear and clean with full bodied sound this unit works well. If you listen through Bluetooth speakers then what does it matter. There is enough power to shake the house if needed. I’m using it for music only in my painting studio and it does just fine. Great speakers make the difference and this Sony has plenty of power to push out the sound as it was made to be heard. I am still learning more of its capabilities. My old Sony receive was 10 years old and is now out in the workshop. Still works fine.

      Hi Guido, Awesome! We're very happy to hear you appreciate the Bluetooth feature and it works perfectly with your devices as well as your 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_US

    Ii bought this receiver for my garage. I have a pair of older Sound Dynamic shelf speakers that it runs very nicely. It works great for what I need and want. I'm sure it would be great for running larger speakers as well. The bluetooth connected to my Samsung S7 quickly and easily. The remote is easy to understand as well. It's very nice having a simple button to push for easy bass and treble adjustment and not having to go through menus. The knobs are very solid on the unit. I have always been turned off when the knobs feel loose. It gives them a cheap feel. Not with this unit. They are very firm. The receiver is also quite heavy. I'm not a technology guy or have any real detailed data to back this up, but it being heavy tells me there's actually real components in there! LOL. It's a great buy and worth every penny.

    I had a similar Sony Receiver for years but wanted to connect an older turntable to play my large album collection. I also wanted to be able to connect into my Sonos speaker system. This Sony comes with a phono input so it provides the amplifier needed to play the turntable which my older Sony did not. This receiver worked as expected for all my components- turntable and CD player. Only issue I had with Sonos was the phono amp did not have enough power to use the Sonos speakers although it worked great with the wired speakers on the Receiver. I had to add a small pre-amp in between the phono input and Sonos Connect to actually boost amps into Sonos to hear the turntable and it seemed to have done the trick.
