Your media, on tap

You can connect other music players to the front-panel auxiliary input, while the rear-panel A/V input allows you to connect sources like a gaming console. With five preamp outputs, you can connect amps to get your system pumping.

Bluetooth® for your convenience

Once you pair your phone, you can answer your calls with the push of a button, and talk as if your caller is sitting next to you. Plus, the receiver supports Bluetooth audio streaming, so you can stream music wirelessly from compatible devices to the receiver, with basic control functions like play and pause.

Bluetooth note: Use of this receiver's Bluetooth features will depend upon your phone's Bluetooth capabilities. Learn more in our article explaining Bluetooth profiles.
