Review Text: Best for VINYL...if you just wan to listen. Yes, it's only two-channel. But that's what makes it perfect for going back to one's youth by listening to all the saved and carefully preserved stereo albums. Yes, I have all of my ORIGINAL records from when I was in high school and college. And I'm retired now, so that gives you an idea...Lol. This unit has the ALL IMPORTANT phono input for playing records...and the grounding terminal to prevent hum and feedback. It also has four additional RCA phono input sets and a buetooth in put as well for connecting to mobile devices. FM only but who listens to talk radio anymore, anyway? The stereo sound is quite good for those of us who aren't audiphiles, and the volume steps per Sony's standard goes from "1" to "50" I rarely have it set below 10 or higher than 35. Through my large Pioneer uprights...plenty loud. The case is something of a Sony standard size, as it seems to be the same size as the Sony six-channel receiver it replaced. That unit was at least fifteen years old when I replaced it...there's something to be said about continuity of size...you don't have to rearrange your "stack" to accomodate a different size component. I paired this with an Audio-Technica turntable and all is right in my audio world again. :) ;) <3 <3 <3
