Check the reviews on Amazon link above. This one is hard to beat for less than $200, if you're open to refurbished.

At 63% less than new, I personally would roll the dice for the savings but that's everyone's decision to make. 90 days is plenty of time for a full test / shakedown, and if everything is A-OK I wouldn't expect any problems for years afterwards.

Nice price, but the 80W/Channel is a big difference from 145. I'm rockin an old Onkyo HT-RC260 that has served me problem free for 15 years. The only thing I wish it had today is 4K passthrough. Otherwise it's awesome and has enough power for my HTPC needs.

This unit is NOT145w per channel. The Sony manual states that it is 90w per channel into 6 ohms.

For anyone who read the manual (link above) the unit is only 90watts per channel into 6 ohms. Only speakers rated between 6-16 ohms are compatible (according to the manual).
