Right features for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a basic (2.0) receiver for a new coffee shop. This has all the features we needed: RCA AUX inputs for a SiriusXM radio (Coffee Shop channel, etc.), iPod/phone 3.5mm input, and FM tuner. It also includes a phono pre-amp, but I don't think we will be using that. I especially liked the fact the iPod/phone input was on the front. Sounds quality is good, I won't say great, but that is probably due to the speakers we are using.

Nice product at a great price

Posted .Hi Sean,
We're glad to hear that you like the price point of the AV receiver. To isolate the issue, power reset the unit, simply unplug the unit and wait 1-2 minutes then plug the device back in and power on. 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!

Great stereo for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this stereo because of the built in blue tooth. Replaced my old similar model Sony that did not have bluetooth so that I could stream music. It works great for streaming music and I have my TV connected as well. It has an A/B switch too so that I can listen to music on my porch on another set of speakers. The remote is simple and user friendly.

A solid deal
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I've been happy with this purchase, the volume control feels kind of cheap but other than that it performs quite well for a receiver in this price range that also has a phono input.. I have it hooked up to my PC through bluetooth and it turns itself on when my PC is started up.

Good 100w power,but PURE DIRECT is not remembered
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good 100wpc power. But the SONY is lighter than my Denon amp with just 90wpc, so I had to turn the SONY's level up a bit to get the same decibels. The PURE DIRECT button has to be pressed each time, as SONY does not save this setting after a power cycle, unlike the Denon.

Good overall receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to power my Klipsch KHO-7 outdoor speakers in my patio and it does the job very well. I can have FM and bluetooth connections to play my music. I was able to use my Bose Companion 2 speakers as well in the living room but the colume control will be from the speaker and not from this receiver.
