Posted .Hi itchykawa,
You made the right choice! We're glad that you are enjoying the sound quality of the 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!

Excellent Receiver/Amp for Living Room
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve owned several Sony amps, and their stuff just gets better and better!

perfect for minimal set up. plenty power.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.picked this up with two klipsch tower speakers few months back. phenomenal set up. plenty of settings on the receiver and tons of power. didn’t want to spring for a phono pre amp and a new receiver and covered all my bases. my only wish and only draw back was no sub input.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Bluetooth receiver.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We use it to pump music out to the pool area. Bluetooth has great range, so no problem picking up phones or other devices from outside. Enough power to get plenty loud. Great value at a little over $100.

We needed something that would not cost an arm and a leg, yet work for our business. It is doing very well and our staff loves that it has Bluetooth capability.
