Best budget Amp!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the best budget amps you can buy! I absolutely love the “pure direct” feature for cleaner, richer and deeper tones. What really is neat is being able to connect 4 speakers and use them all at the same time. This Sony CRANKS!

Excellent for certain needs at good price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good for my situation - two sets of stereo speakers in family room and three season room - also airplay units are expensive but the Bluetooth works great especially since you can turn the unit on by simply connecting to Bluetooth with your device and play any source like pandora amazon Apple or whatever
I would recommend this to a friend Just what the doctor ordered.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a receiver that had a phono connection. It fit the bill very well . There are not very many receivers that you can get to connect a turntable to any more and not pay an arm and a leg for it. Got a hundred watts per channel and at a low price.

Very nice introductory stereo receiver!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Sony Stereo Receiver is hooked up to my record player. I've had these records for years, and haven't listened to them, but due to the stay at home order, my wife and I revitalized our basement with a bar and a sound system. The set up was easy and we can listen to records and Spotify from my phone. Great sound quality for the price.

Sony 2 channel receiver good value
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this so I could play records in my man cave. It works well hooked up to a couple of Bose book shelf speakers. Not an audiophile, but, I did think about purchasing a vintage unit...but, in the end, I wanted bluetooth so I went with the Sony - glad I did.
