Pioneer SX-10AE Home Audio Stereo Receiver

TLDR: This receiver has EVERYTHING I want and nothing I don't (at a budget price). REVIEW: I've loved stereos for years. While I've typically purchased Yamaha products the last 30 years, I think i may be a convert to Pioneer. Th Pioneer SX-10AE is a little more musical in that it's a little warmer and seems to have better/richer stereo imaging whereas my Yamahas of recent years seem a little sterile. My B&W CDM-1NT speakers sound great with this receiver, which is good news because I thought the speakers would want a lot more power. As I get older I find myself wanting convenience than anything else. POSITIVES: flawless bluetooth, bass & treble controls right on the remote control (no menu-diving), a bass boost button (come on, you know you want that) an RCA left&right "line out" (the line out is a constant-level output and is not controlled by the volume level), a subwoofer out, a simple remote with big buttons, a simple stereo receiver that has everything I want - I prefer my TV in stereo anyway. CONS: Just one I guess: If you have large speakers you might want more power.
