Sony - 200W 2.0-Ch. Stereo Receiver - Black

This was the exact features I was looking for in a receiver to go with my pair of Cerwin Vega Re30 speakers. All I added was a single disc CD player and with the Aux input I can use my old school IPod classic 260gb. Glad I found this Sony classic style receiver. The big old school stereo systems have died out but this receiver brings my speakers back to life with simple style and power.

Bought this to replace a 25 year old receiver. Works great so far. No phono input.

had most of what i needed to replace my old am/fm receiver that was 40 years old. antenna was too short and single wire but not a big deal turns itself off if i pause the cd player too long. annoying. fm reception is marginal but adequate for the price speaker connectors a bit hard to use getting the wire into them right NO MAGNETIC PICKUP INPUT to connect turntable for vinyl LPs so HAD TO BUY A SEPARATE PREAMP. big flaw. had a lot of extraneous other inputs. hope one of them will work with the turntable preamp okay if i can remember that the LPs are going to be called satellite or something else nice remotes match the ones for the cd and dvd player and presumably motivation to buy a sony tv to make them all the same but samsung is far better and i already had that one plenty of power for the speakers sounds okay way too many presets for the available am and fm stations. dont know why they dont just have one for every possible one on the dial.

I just wanted something to replace the old receiver I had out in the shop so was looking for a Bargain. I found this Sony open box special listed online available in my local store. They had rated it as "Excellent condition". Now to me to get a excellent condition report the item is in nearly new condition with all the accessories. The Receiver was in Nearly new condition but the antenas where missing which is why this open box special looses a star. Best Buy did take a bit more off for this when I called them on it but found out replacement antena where really expensive, Fortunately I was able to make a FM antenna with min fuss. The receiver itself Works Great !

I bought this receiver to complete a sound system setup for my TV. I had 2 1978 Genesis V6 speakers that I needed a receiver for and, after some searching I found this one, at 100 dollars, it is an absolute steal. I hooked up my TV and game consoles to it and it sounds amazing. The added 3.5 mm audio jack is a plus for when my friends want to play there music when they come over. Unless you need a to hook up a large number of speakers and/or have a need for a 5.1 or 7.1 channel system or the like, this receiver is fantastic.

I bought a insignia receiver for for my two built in speaker in my room. Just for normal stereo use and Ipod/MP3. After about three years the it stopped turning on. So I got this as a replacement. It does sound better and sets up very easy. It has the basic amenities...sleep, display dimmer, station memory presets (lots of it) and modes. I am happy with the purchase so far.

Good solid sound. Easy to use and hook up. Pair with Bose speakers $150.00 at the Wrentham outlet for great crisp sound. Has a port that you can plug the TV headphone jack into so if you have a smart TV you can have Pandora on the stereo which was my purpose in buying this receiver plus with the bose speakers the sound I think is better than a home theater system and I paid 1/3 the price.

This is a nice no frills stereo receiver. I use it for a turntable and it sounds great. I did get a bad one the first time. I plugged headphones in and something shorted out. I returned it for another one, and I have had no issues in the 8+ months since then. If you need a stereo receiver that won't break the bank, this one is a great option.
