Hi John, thanks for reinforcing what I have said. I have some Sony equipment like Timex, keeps on ticking, along with some jvc stuff that is 25 years old. I am going to throw out a sharp stereo that had the cd changer and cassette decks go bad soon after purchase, and have been using the amplifier for other auxiliary components.
