sony stereo receiver with bluetooth
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid old style basic stereo receiver. And it has Bluetooth so it is easy to play music from phone or ipad. Bluetooth is only good, not great. When device gets too far away from receiver, music cuts out.

Posted .Hi RichardS,
That's great! We're glad to hear that you like the Bluetooth function of the AV receiver. 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! Thank you for choosing Sony!

Exceeded expectations
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like my new purchase. I did not notice it had a portable in jack. Useful for ipod. And the Bluetooth works well to use it as speakers for my computer or my iPod. It takes a proprietary FM antenna. The one supplied works adequately but I wish it worked better.

Posted .Hi Hiker1000, Wow! We're very pleased to hear you like the addition of portable IN jack, easy Bluetooth pairing, and FM tuner. You can't connect an external FM antenna to your receiver, but you can improve the FM reception.
Adjust the position of the supplied FM wire antenna (aerial) to a place where the reception condition is good.
Place the antenna near a window.
Position the antenna as horizontally as possible.

Very nice 2 ch. Stereo Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wanted a quality, but smaller, stereo receiver to replace my old Kenwood receiver from 40 years ago. I looked for one that had phono input jacks for my turntable, and also included a remote. This Sony 2 ch. stereo receiver did the trick, and have been very happy with it's performance in the 4 weeks that I have owned.

Upgrading my old components!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This acquisition replaced my old ONKYO receiver which had developed some circuitry issues that I could not easily resolve. Works like a charm with all my other components, including a new Sony turntable I acquired at about the same time.

Cheap Sony amp. Good deal
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought an open box version. Therefore I got it for nearly half price. It works terrifically so far and my only complaint is the feel of the volume knob. When turning it I'm reminded of something not very well engineered. But it works fine. And the Bluetooth reaches through several walls.... Good purchase

Great receiver
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We needed a new receiver to replace on old one in our component system, and after hours of looking on line at brands I never heard of, I went to the Best Buy site. This basic SONY receiver was on sale for less than the unknowns with spotty reviews. A perfect addition to my system. We could not be happier!

Great system but low output
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my outdoor speakers. Blue tooth has great range with my I phone - about 70 feet from inside garage to my BBQ. Sound quality is excellent. Picks up radio stations that I never have been able to before. Only disappointment was the maximum volume output. With only two speakers it was not enough. Had to add two more and it is very loud. I would buy this again. My yard is 80 x 120.
