    Decent sound whether direct or via bluetooth. This receiver can handle what you throw at it — hope your speakers can too.

      Hi ValuedCustomer, Thank you for the positive feedback! Good to know you're enjoying the powerful sound it 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

    Great relatively inexpensive receiver. Have one in my garage, work shop and home gym. First one bought years ago for the garage with no issues to date at all.

    Phono input is a positive feature. The sound quality is good for basic component but the unit that I bought had a perceptible hum. I called Sony's help line about this and they confirmed that this hum was "normal." I decided to return the purchase.
