Sherwood's R-872 is a true sleeper. I can't imagine they could pack any more features into this receiver, but I likely failed to discuss three-quarters of what this impressive receiver can do. In a world with HD audio formats for movie surround tracks...

A small, lightweight practice amp with a decent, even tone. I bought it to play along with rehearsal tapes and CDs at moderate volumes and to learn songs playing with an acoustic guitarist or pianist, either backstage or in living rooms. I am given...

I use this to power three "AuraSound AST-2B-4 Pro Bass Shaker Tactile Transducer". It works perfectly. I have then mounted underneath my couch and it really adds to our movie experience. Movie theaters now have these and charge you extra to feel your...

I have this switching 2 pairs of ci100qr ceiling speakers connected to zone 2 of my Yamaha rxv773 home cinema amp. I'm using the zone 2 in my dining room and kitchen mostly to play music. I was a little nervous as zone 2 on the amp was rated at 8 ohms...

Paired with my B &W LM 1's or the wharfedale 9.1's this amp sounded thin and cold. I changed it for a Yamaha AS500 which sounds as good as my old Denon did. may be OK with fuller speakers.

I have STR-DE925 from 2004. My cousin bought Rotel-RSX-1055 and gave me DE925 as a gift. Since then I "tried" to replace my DE925 many times but I liked DE925's sound more then competitor's, so Sony staid.

I bought this to play some light blues for an outdoor wedding, where A/C was not available. Jack in an MP3 and you're good to play along with tracks. Truly the most fun piece of gear I've gotten in...

One thing that I absolutely love about this this amp is the recording output. This enables you to go direct with headphones or run straight into a sound mixer. At new these units come in at around ...

This is second Kenwood unit that I have owned. The first one, I bought in 1997 and it was given to a good friend in 2004. He is STILL making that old analog unit scream! In 2003, I bought this Kenwood VR6050 for a digital audio upgrade. It has...

You get what you pay for. Once the remote control issue is resolved it might be ok.

Wonderful piece of gear. Very flexible and a tube-rollers delight. Been in this 'hobby' for 50+ years and the SLI-80 is the one piece I would pick if I could only pick one (of course, needs speakers and a source or three). Am afraid that Otis doesn't...

This collection of reviews helped me decide to buy a Hafler DH-220 on Ebay and I'm glad I did. I bought it along with a DH-100 solid state preamp for $260 + $40 shipping. I bought it from a dealer who said it was in excellent condition. I have no idea...
