Product Description

The main function of the lens hood is to shade the lens from stray light, improving your contrast and image quality. But it will also protects the front barrel from the inevitable impacts against walls, door frames, and other real-life obstacles and in inclement weather, it can assist in keeping moisture or wind-blown debris off the lens. The advantage of the petal shape design is, that it offers the same prevention of flare as the corresponding circular or rectangular design, but with a smaller size and a lighter weight.Installation: * Rotate lock-ring to expose the thread’s mounting thread * Attach the hood by screwing it on the filter or lens thread. * Rotate lock-ring back to fix the hood on the thread. * While fixating the hood with the lock-ring, keep the ” ” symbol on the hood exactly at 12 o’clock position for the correct perpendicular orientation of the higher sides of the hood.

Don’t waste your money
I bought this stereo receiver to power some small Athena bookshelf speakers in my office. The power rating is supposed to be 100 wpc but it doesn’t seem to more than 20 wpc. I paid $100 when I could have done better spending $10 at a garage sale. Save your money and get an old heavy receiver from the 70’s.

Great features, quality, and performance for the price
Well, the output from this amplifier sounds comparable to another fairly high-end unit I have, so that is good. It’s a well balanced sound with no notable features (I’m not into megabass).

Two other positives.

First, it can drive A and B speakers simultaneously (or one at a time). But the great advantage is that they are driven independently: turning on the B speakers creates no dip in the volume of the A speakers, and vice versa - even with the very different speakers and cable lengths that I use on A and B. Not something you see every day.

Second, it has robust quality. For instance, during a recent thunderstorm it went into “protect” mode when there was a dip in the power supply, rather than continue to operate and potentially die. And that was behind a surge protector, so it’s pretty conscientious.

Amazon are no longer offering this unit, but if you can find it elsewhere it’s well recommended.

really nice system
Really great bass sound though the treble could be a bit better… this could be a result of 10 year old JVC speakers, but I think it is the system. still if you are on a budget and looking to build an audio center, this is a good place to start. Even at almost max volume, there is no distortion. I live in an area with poor radio reception, yet I get NPR crytal clear… and in STEREO!! Usually I have to settle for putting the station on FM mono. I have my Dish Network receiver and DVD player hooked up and everything sounds great. Maybe I will splurge for some new speakers… after all I can hook up two pairs and I’ll see if there is any difference.

Sony Quality
This a good quality receiver. The price is comparable with most of the other receivers in this class. The big difference that I see is legendary Sony quality. I own many Sony products and have been pleased with their performance. I think this is one instance where a “name brand” will pay off. Sony doesn’t make any “junk products”!

Great Reciever!!!
This is an awsome reciever!!! It replace my 10 year old Sony Reciever, which I used atleast eight hours a day. Wow, how things have changed with recievers, but for the better. One of the great thing about this reciever is th Auto Calibration, which automatically sets up the surround sound (like distance of each speaker from reciever for instance? Even with all the plugs on the back it was easy setting/hooking up the reciever and every plug is well marker. Another great thing is the ability to hook everything directly to the reciever with HDMI cables. I could go on and on, but I won’t. If you are looking to buy a HIGH quality reciever, this is the one. Sony is the best!

Very good receiver for the bucks
Why spend more? This has it all, enough power for a living room, nice appearance, and plenty of inputs. Leaves money to spend on dvd players, recorders, and speakers.

Value, convenience, performance
This was purchased to replace a much more costly Harman Kardon 5.1 receiver, which I found had a weak FM tuner and difficult to configure surround settings. The Sony has been a pleasant surprise; good FM, more than adequate power and the 7.1 surround is quite and improvement over the 5.1. The remote is even user friendly (though I use a Sony touch screen universal). I think it may have a slightly edgy sound (compared to the H-K); but I’m always looking for flaws because of the low price!

For years I used Sony products until their reliability became very poor. But recently that seems to have changed, happily enough.

Sony Slips
The price looked right, but as others have mentioned this receiver has:

*a poor layout for inputs,

*a terrible manual,

*a difficult remote,

Sony is coasting on their name with this one.

In addition, after a period of full, normal operation the unit began to go into “Protect” mode… there was little information available (not in the manual), so I began troubleshooting, as recommended in some online forums, by removing all connections - and found that the unit still entered “Protect” mode with nothing else (components, speakers, etc.) connected… power on… protect mode. Very frustrating to have no information from Sony.

This “Protect” issue taken with the other afforementioned and unrelated design and documentation faults led me to return the unit and go in a different direction.

I spent a little more and purchased a Pioneer VSX-1015TXK; I have been much happier with the Pioneer unit. I also considered the Harman Kardon AVR 240, but this Pioneer has proved to be a winner. I recommend you stay away from Sony until they get it right.

Gets the job done nicely
If you need to drive your 7.1 surround speakers, this SONY does a nice job. It is not the best out there, but it may very well be the best one for the money. All video sources are “upconverted” to S-VIDEO to send them all to your TV with one cable. It took a little while to figure out which surround modes sounded best and how to seperatly adjust the volume on the surrounds, but it does great when properly tweeked. The ProLogic-II modes do great on movies and games. This is a great value, but the universal remote dose not work all my gear.
