    Receiver had exactly what I wanted with the ability to switch between A/B speakers or play both. Connected my I pad by Bluetooth to receiver and was able to play anything from my I tunes library.

    So far I've only used it as an amp for a stereo turntable. It has sufficient power to drive the bookshelf Polk speakers with clean sound.

      Hi Norm, Amazing! We're very happy to hear you like the powerful and clear sound this unit delivers. 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

    We’ve owned several Sony amps, and their stuff just gets better and better! Plug it in and go. Zero setup! Amazing sonic clarity. We (still!) have a turntable, and the phono input is nicely balanced.

    Works really well. Initially I purchased a cheaper Insignia unit, but was not happy with the way the Bluetooth functioned with my iPhone. This unit works really well and sounds great.

    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.

    Can't beat it for the money. Only a 2 channel amp with no LFE or pre outs, but get a subwoofer with high level inputs, and you're good to go!
