PT390BTU

Just got it today to replace a 22 year old pioneer that was played daily. The only reason I replaced it was because there was no USB port to play my music catalog. Hooking up the speaker wire was a bit of a pain but the unit has performed perfectly so far. Great sound, plenty of power, played my iPod, CDPlayer and the USB port is now playing my entire music catalog without a hitch. So happy with this unit so far. Remote works perfectly. Only issue is no switch to turn on or off A or B speakers. Haven’t tried Bluetooth so will see on that. I noticed the fan is really loud so don’t think it would be good for Home Theater but for music not noticeable.Will update in a month or so. For $125 I’m shocked that it is so good.Updated Review - I’ve had it for about 8 months now and can’t say enough good things about this receiver. Still works perfectly. Sound is fantastic for the price. The only Cons I have are that it doesn’t an A or B speaker switch. You have to listen to all four or none at all if you set it up for 4 speakers and there is no way I can figure out how to turn off the annoying equalizer light show on the front panel. Otherwise a great product for the money. Don’t notice the fan noise at all.

I got this to use as a replacement stereo for an old unit that stopped working and also to make a cheap rig to jam my bass at home so I would have to cart my real rig back and forth from the jam pad as much. This isn't pro equipment, obviously, and I'm rating it accordingly as the low budget gadget that it is.As a stereo its more than loud enough for where I'm at and what I need and the sound quality is pretty good. No complaints about sound quality. Better than I expected really. It has a built-in fan that is a little noisy if its going and you cut the music off but not an issue to me. The Bluetooth is pretty handy. I use it quite a bit to play along with and learn songs. I've hooked some drum loops up to play along to as well when I'm noodling around. Bass sounds pretty decent through it. I don't push it too hard usually but I've cranked it a couple times because making the thunder is half the fun. After messing with the EQ a bit I got a pretty gnarly tone I was digging and was rattling every window in the house. Its not something I would cart to a gig, but great for making noise and playing at home or to get random jam session goin with buddies. I got far more bang for my buck than I would have got if I bought a little $100 combo practice amp. It has a line out I may use to play around with for some home recording. I may not ever mess with it but I think it is cool that it's there. You can plug into this thing pretty much anyway you can think of, too.I've had it a month or so and really couldn't be more pleased with it. It's fulfilling the uses I got it for. I got this as an open box, like new deal for $90. I didn't have super high hopes because it seemed TOO cheap. I'm going to 5 star it because usefulness/features to cost ratio is just too damned good. Hopefully it doesn't randomly stop working in a couple weeks and make me come back to take away the praises I'm Pyling on. See what I did there?

4.5 of 5 Stars. Great amp for the price. I am a teacher and I was using an old Sony rack system with the big wooden box speakers in my classroom for music for the kids while they worked. After 30 years, it died. I needed a new amp for my room and wasn’t looking to spend a ton of money on it but also didn’t want garbage. Decided on this guy. Sound is decent, not perfect, but it’s not a $500 amp. Features are pretty good. Radio works well, wired connection for my phone works good, Bluetooth is adequate. I like that when I have the BT running, I can use the remote control to pause and skip songs on my phone. There is no power button on the remote to turn it off, so you do need to get up for that. Not a big deal.Plenty of power to push my speakers. Before taking them to school, I did a movie night with a digital projector and the sound was pretty darn good for a movie outside.I opted to buy the Amazon warranty to cover 3 full years for $4 just in case this guy doesn’t hold up, but hey, $100 is cheap for what you get.

I had high hopes for this, probably too high considering the cheap price. This unit replaced a different, perfectly working amp that I gave to a friend. I have a four-speaker setup (A+B, two left and two right).Upon powering up, the speakers had an immediate loud hiss, almost sounding like the AM/FM tuner was set to an in-between station. The problem was, EVERY input was making that noise, even inputs that weren't in use. I tried different speaker wire and plugging the unit into a different power outlet, no difference.I tried seeing if I could live with it, seeing if when music was playing (loud enough) if the hiss was not noticeable. Unfortunately, the hiss was far too noticeable when the music was played at any level.I also noticed that the part of the display (that I can only assume is some sort of EQ display), appeared to be stuck in some sort of Knight Rider-type display.Other observations:- The Bluetooth did connect quickly and easily.- Even though this has the ability to plug in two sets of speakers (A+B), you can't select just A or B. It always plays both.- The remote feels super cheap.- I realized before purchase that there was no headphone jack, but this really could use one.After trying everything to get the hiss to go away, I opted to return it for a refund. Either the unit was defective or so cheaply made. I wound up instead getting a Sony STRDH190 for only $40 more, which sounds perfect. No hiss and I love the ability to select speakers A, B, or A+B.
