I've grown up around amplifiers, large cumbersome speakers snd turntables. But now it's about Bluetooth and versatility. I now have 2 of these receivers. One in my fire room and one in the garage. The ease of use, function, clarity and sleek design are perfect.

  Haven't found anything I don't like about it yet.

I bought this because people seemed to like the iPhone/Bluetooth/Airplay features. It’s really great! I can be anywhere in my house and Bluetooth stands by in sleep mode waiting for me to activate it on my phone. I bought a pair of outdoor speakers and hooked them up by the pool. Sounds great!

I am really enjoying this new receiver. I like I can program the inputs and using a remote control. The thing I like most is the high fidelity button or setting. Hi fidelity works great on both vinyl and cd's and makes the music sound properly mixed which is why I wanted a new receiver in the first...

This is a superb product. I got it as a replacement for my old receiver and not only does it allow me to continue to connect to FM radio, my turntable, CD player, and tape deck, but the sound coming out of my speakers is terrific.

The price was not the only deciding factor for me. Over my 50 years I have owned many sony products from T.V.s to stereos and they have always lasted way past my expectations. This Receiver will not disappoint you. I have very old cheap speakers and my sound is better than I expected.

What I liked about this was that a turntable preamp was built in. What I found frustrating and unacceptable was the FM antenna! It plugs into the back of the receiver, with a telephone landline-like clip. The FM radio reception was static filled no matter how I placed the antenna.

I use this receiver to power the speakers in my yard and my outdoor gym. It works perfectly. The Bluetooth standby feature is very handy so you don't have to walk to the unit and connect etc. the Bluetooth range is the furthest and most reliable of anything Bluetooth that I've ever had.

Bought to replace an OLD shelf system unit to use for simple radio play, and the 2 channel setup, especially with the phono preamp, was just what was needed for my record collection. Sound is great as expected from Sony, simple to set up and use.

Excellent example of simplicity....finally! I wanted a receiver that was more "old school"...simple and easy to use, yet with great sound....this fills the bill! I think engineers get too wrapped up in designing a receiver with all the bells & whistles, ones we dont need, and making it overly...

This receiver is an inexpensive model with bluetooth wireless capability, and multiple connectivity via RCA plugs to older stereo components and phonographs that don't have HDMI connections. A great support for people with older stereo systems without replacing every component.
