Unlike other recivers in its price range you dont get the quality as you do with the technics SA-AX530 model reciver. Other recivers only have 3 input jacks this one has 5 including a special dvd one which lets you hook up six speakers to it, including sub woofer, center channel two front and two back speakers.Other feature I like about this product is that there is a 30 channel memory on it so if your listening to fm, you dont need to use the direct tunning button you just press the channel you want.You can also set delays on the speakers which is a nice feature.The remote is also multi fuctional so if you misplace you dvd remote chance are this remote will also work on it because it has a little dvd section on it which i like alot. over all this is a great reciver to get if its your first or its in your price range or your looking for a better quality reciver this is the one for you.

Although the sound quality and features of this techniques receiver were very good, its venilation system is extremely poor and it gets very hot. If you have your components in a cabinet, you will not be able to leave this receiver on for very long. I had to return it because I thought the wood shelf above the receiver in my cabinet was going to catch on fire or warp. I had to return the product.

THis little receiver does its job exceptionally well. I picked it up at REX for around $140.00 in the box and everything. It has the 6ch DVD input for DVD players with the built-in digital decoder. Every single kindof composite input you would need. The only thing lacking on this is S-video input/output... but for the price I can just port straight to the TV.

It is a great receiver, especially for the price. I've had no problems with it and consider it another one of Technics' quality products.
