      Hi andrew, We're very happy to hear your son loves his first sound system. 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! You won't be disappointed! Thanks for choosing Sony! We're looking forward to your next purchase! -Sam Sony_US

    puts out some power and good sound. This replaced my luxman receiver which was very hard to beat. This receiver does a very good job for what I wanted it for. I have a Single CD player, Double Cassette deck and a 5 CD disc changer hooked up to this and they all sound good through this receiver. I don't have much use for the remote, so I have not used it. Overall, it is worth the money

    I am very pleased with this receiver. It is replacing an old old Nikko receiver in our large family room in the basement. It produces sound/music much better than I had expected. The Bluetooth capability is very good and reaches much further than I had expected. It is powering 4 Yamaha ceiling speakers that sound great. You get a Big Bang for the Buck For this receiver.

      Hi Yooper52, Awesome! We're very pleased to hear you appreciate the built quality and ease of use. We appreciate your feedback about the audio clarity. You can enjoy higher-fidelity sound from all inputs using the Pure Direct function.
      When the Pure Direct function is on, the display panel lights off to suppress noise that affects sound quality.

      You can also adjust the tonal balance of the speakers.speakers by pressing the treble and bass +,- button using the remote.

      Hope this helps! -Sam Sony_US

    Great stereo for analog components

    This stereo takes you back to the days when you had a turntable, cassette deck and good speakers. The 100W channels provide clean sound enough to liven any normal room in your house or apartment. I'm reliving my youth listening to all the analog platforms I've retained. The bluetooth lets you connect modern day sources to an otherwise analog compatible receiver. There is no limit to the sources of my music. This is the best of both worlds!

    Had these requirements: Input for TV audio, CD player, audio cassette recorder (for Austin City Limits, etc.), and phono turntable and of course FM. Output for cassette to convert to digital. Everything controls from bluetooth remote control. Separate button for each input. 3 buttons for FM favs w/30 presets total. Very nice!!!
