Like many out there, I had a receiver/amp that was over 20 years old that died (mine was a Nikko NR-750). I wanted something basic with no fancy frills to replace the solid features of my old amp. After pricing them all and knowing that I am now listening to my stereo in the basement rec room (which is not optimal conditions anyway), I decided to try the very inexpensive, no-frills Sony here. Compared to my old Nikko, it isn’t even close. The frequencies are flatter, and the only adjustments you can make are a 1-10 Bass and Treble control which don’t shape the sound out very much at all. I am also not thrilled with the input abbreviations (the CD one has SA/CD/blah, blah, there is no Phono, Cassette has MD or something…anyway, it is all a bit off-putting for us middle-aged dudes, but once you get your codes down you will be okay), but that is minor.
All that being said, look one more time at the price, and you can give this unit a break, realizing you get what you pay for. It is quite a serviceable receiver that, while not bringing the potential out of my speakers, doesn’t make them sound like vomit. For a little over a hundred dollars (and free shipping) you will get a unit that works pretty well (but that really needs an equalizer). I am going to keep it because for my situation the price difference isn’t worth getting a higher-end unit, but if you are a real audiophile and have a sound room with proper dynamics you probably shouldn’t be looking at the cheapees like this one, anyway. One more note–this, like many newer amps, does not have a built in amp for the phono jack. Fortunately my turntable is only a few years old (since my old one died) and most new ones come with a switch built in for pre-amp or none. Just beware that if you are running an old turntable without this option you will need to hook up a separate pre-amp between the turntable and the receiver.
All in all, I debated 3-stars or 4, but gave it the 4 because I should have figured that for the price I was not going to get something to equal my old receiver, and overall it is a pretty good deal.

This is a good basic tuner/amp. Easy to operate, good power. It only has two channels, but for music its all you need. Input switching is silent, tuner is good, remote is easy to figure out. Its worked great so far.

After selecting free 7-9 day delivery and then being concerned with ordering an audio component sight unseen and shipped by “slow boat”, I was pleasantly surprised by the Fed-Ex Ground delivery two days later of a nearly pristine box with the receiver in great condition. The audio quality is fine for my general radio listening and the amp is plenty powerful. The remote is a little confusing as it appears to be a unit designed for use with various audio and video components. The manual helps and all can be learned.
