    Great product, takes a few minutes to fully set up, but was well worth the effort. Bought this one for my daughter. Is working with well with anything we have connected to it. FM antenna connect is odd but works.

    During the chip shortage this was a lucky score. Has ample connectivity for my needs, love the HDMI-CEC control with my LG OLED and Google Chromecast. The inclusion of the wired microphone for channel balancing was a nice unexpected bonus.

    Great receiver for the money. It has all the functions most people will need and is easy to operate. The sound quality is very good and it's small size is nice for tighter spaces. I would recommend this receiver to anyone on a budget who still wants a nice stereo system that will do the job for you.

    Purchased this for a receiver at one of our stores to power outside and inside speakers. It was a breeze to install. Mostly use for hooking up my phone via bluetooth and using Spotify. Speakers hooked up with wires have excellent sound quality and impressive value.

    This purchase was to replace an older theater receiver that was more compatible with our new 4K SONY Bracia 55" tv. Sound is now spectacular from the tv and attached ROKU Ultra 4K device.

    The unit is fantastic. Many components to add and delivers great sound. I just ran my DVD through it the other day for the 1st time and it didn't disappoint. However, it does take a second after you turn it on to engage and realize the units hooked up to it.

    This is a very good amplifier, for the money, which is what I bought it for. It's less than OK on receiver function as it doesn't get AM radio. Setup was pretty straightforward with the instructions given

    This receiver has filled its requested job adequately. A decent value at a decent price. Not the most user friendly at times, but luckily I'm a "techy" person and don't have issues myself, but I can see others struggling with it at times. Good for basic home use going beyond soundbars, but not as high end for the upper crowd.

    The HDMI is a plus, but doesn't make up for the lack of tone controls and insufficient bass when using it with only two speakers. I have two Pioneer HPM-100 speakers with 12" woofers and there is barely any bass.
