    Exactly what we needed to feed a 70V commercial system. Provided FM, bluetooth, and used one TV output to feed Input 1 so that players have options to sound during their games.

      Hi STLdad78, Awesome! We're thrilled to know that this is what you're looking for in a stereo 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! Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam Sony_US

    I bought the Sony Stereo Receiver to go with my new record player. My old one was too old to be compatible with my new system. It works great and was easy to set up.

    I just tried out this receiver for the first time. pushing 8 zones of speakers inside my customers home. plenty of volume in each room with no stress on the power output. Bluetooth works great and the inputs on the display can be renamed.

    Needed this for home sound system to replace the non-Bluetooth version we’ve had for years. Setup was extremely easy. Only gripe is that it had 2 less audio input slots than the previous version so we could only connect 4 out of our 6 ceiling speakers.

    I am 71, but have had electronics equipment most of my life. I earned my amateur radio license at 16, but was building my own stereo systems even earlier. This Sony receiver/amplifier met my high standard. I had it unpacked and up and running in two and half hours. When I turned it on, the sound blew me away! I highly recommend this to any one who wants a modern sound system, that they can still used older gear, like a turntable, tape deck, and a CD player. I am very happy it with and it wasn't made in China!
