I have had it since 1997 I control it with my Toshiba tv through the fiber optic using a converter it rocks the house I can not kill it the sound is great for me.

Have had this thing for atleast 14 years. It is still running like a dream, I listen to everyday and almost all day.It can put out some major Bass if you set it up right or it could be all treble. I think that this is one one the best receivers Sony could make.
