    This is a pretty good 2 channel receiver for the price. Keep in mind the device is limited because of the 2 channels. However, if you're only wanting to run say a couple big speakers then this is definitely one you should choose.

    I bought this and a couple of speakers to replace my 1980s boom box in the bedroom. What remarkable change. Not unexpected but nice all the same.

    I bought it to use with a turntable. Most a/v receivers only give you two channels from a record player and you have to buy a separate pre-amp. Well this gives you four channels and you can connect a sub that uses a bare wire input and then connects to your two front speakers from out of the sub. Excellent and it does Bluetooth as well as other inputs, some TVs even have a RCA out, the red and white ends that will work.

    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.

    It has just enough kick to power the Sony speakers I bought and my 18 year old JBLs. When I run both A and B i am very satisfied. Not my wife but I have no buyers remorse.

    I am a big fan of Sony and sine I got this receiver at a really great price I can’t complain too much but one of the reasons that I bought this model was because it had separate phono input jacks. They must have a short in them because the speakers hum when you plug into them and the turntable sounds like the needle is touching sandpaper. So I plugged the turntable into another input Jack and it works fine. I would have taken it back, but I really didn’t need more input jacks. The sound is fine for the price that I paid.

    Love you can turn it on by connecting your phone to it via bluetooth. Don't love that you can't turn it off when you disconnect bluetooth. You have to still get within eye sight of the receiver to turn it off using the provided remote.
