Great 10 Watt amp! (no misprint)

bybimmaguy Sep 9, 2008
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Ease of setup, number of features, appearance, low power consumption.
Cons Runs hot while providing minimal pure power to speakers.
Recommended it? No

Sometime in the early 21st century, I decided to abandon quadrophonics and upgrade to surround sound. So out with the rocks and sticks that made up the old amp, and in with the Sony STR-DE595. Turns out I took a step down. Let me explain.

Appearance: I think this is a sharp-looking piece of... Read full review »

Cons Limited features (but does the job), Runs quite hot, push-in speaker posts.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this amp as I needed a 100W per channel receiver to power my new Wharfedale Movie star 60 speaker system.

Sony STR-DE 197 review
by CheapboxAudiophile

This unit is a far far cry from what you could call audiophile grade equipment. I only bought one because I needed a cheap poweramp for my TL subwoofers. Its use in my system is confined to the sub-50 Hz frequency range.
However I did... Read full review »

Stereo, you know, 2 channels, no DVD player!

bydalesky Aug 30, 2004
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Reasonably priced (don't pay more than $120) basic good quality stereo...
Cons Limited to 2 channel sound, and no turntable input. That's about it. Nice unit
Recommended it? Yes

Here is your simple, uncomplicated unit. It operates easily, and quite intuitively.
Want to store a channel in memory, and assign it to a preset number? No problem, just tune to the station, push the memory button, then push the preset number of your choice. Don't have to hold it any certain... Read full review »
