I like this receiver for its simplicity of use and compact size. It makes a good receiver and amplifier for my son’s bedroom audio setup. He had a couple speakers and a bass to connect and this is able to power the speakers for him. He has a powered sub paired with it as well. There is HDMI connectivity but he likes the ease of bluetooth. He uses the music apps on his phone most of the time. He also has an old cd player of mine connected to the audio inputs. The setup works well for him and sounds good. The amp isn’t overly big, just a good size for a bookshelf setup. There are lots of other options for use, like for karaoke. He just uses for listening for now. The price was reasonable and performance is good.
