Technics SA-DX950 A/V Surround-Sound Receiver -- Can I Pay for it with Food Stamps?

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2002
The Bottom Line: This Consumer Reports "Best Buy" may not be the best for you to buy.
Review:

Excuse me while I wax nostalgic. Back in the turntable daze (intentionally sic), me and my pals all tried to outdo one another in stereo-buying competitions.

For humble children of the lumpen bourgeoisie, the mathematics of...

High Power, Low Price

Date of Review:  Aug 26, 2001
The Bottom Line: Technics has been know for their high quality components for many years. The DX-950 is perfect for those with a DVD player.
Review: The Technics receiver is by far the best unit on the market for under $250. I purchased this unit because of its great features and its outstanding benefits. The unit contains an abundance of inputs and outputs such as s-video, digital out and in,...

Good value for the Price

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2002
The Bottom Line: Great for DVD/VHS/TV surround sound and unbeatable for the price. Not particularly impressive for classical or large ensemble/orchestral music listening.
Review: It's pretty hard to beat this CR "best value" receiver for the price (1/3 the price of the competing Onkyo DS696) but be prepared to give up some important features. The DVD/SatelliteTV surround performance is excellent in both digital modes.

SA-DX 950 The Best Technics AV Receiver

Date of Review:  Jul 13, 2003
The Bottom Line: There is no difference between SA-DX 950 and SA-DX 1050. So, don't spend more money for a blue light ...
Review: All the perfomances are almost ready to use in professional application.
The remote control is a litle bit not to good because it is impossible to change the selected tunner channel Up and Down with a single button touch.
There is a small...

Great receiver for the money

Date of Review:  Mar 12, 2002
The Bottom Line: Great buy for the money, more options than a beginner would ever need.
Review: I chose this as my first receiver based on its price, reviews, and options. It has plenty of analog inputs as well as three digital (1 coax, 2 optical). It remembers your settings for each mode and lets you assign certain devices to different...

Another great Technics receiver

Date of Review:  Dec 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: For 250 bucks, you get superb sounding audio and all the features you could need for years to come.
Review: Technics has always been one of the best companies to turn to for high-middle-end audio equipment. The SA-DX950 is no exception.

Want to hook up a CD player? How about a tape deck? Phonograph? VCR? DVD player? Output from your computer to...

Value for money

Date of Review:  Oct 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: Meets all my needs
Review: Crunch time, the 30 yr old receiver's tuner had been giving us problems, it also had no remote. Two trips to get it repaired over the last 10 years meant good money thrown after a bad receiver.

The Nov.2001 issue of Consumer reports rated...

Technics is great for the money, but there are better.

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2003
The Bottom Line: If you want the best this isn't it, but it isn't bad either.
Review: Price
This is one of the cheapest receivers available. I purchased at K's Merchandise for under $200.

Performance
This receiver performs very good with fiber optic and digital coaxial inputs. Dolby digital Sound quality is very...

Sounds Great!! Good $$$

Date of Review:  Feb 28, 2002
The Bottom Line: You don't have to spend life savings to get great surround. Middle of the line, great price (also rebate) for anyone looking to invest.
Review: Have recently upgraded to this new unit from a DD Philipps. What a difference!! Yes this has more power and DTS capabilities, but I know I'm running good when I can't hear my wife yelling at me from up stairs.

Set up was quite easy (and...

High-end features at a very reasonable cost

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 2001
The Bottom Line: I definitely recommend this receiver to anyone looking for a digital home theater receiver that doesn't break the bank.
Review: I upgraded from an earlier model Technics receiver in order to take advantage of digital audio. Hookup was relatively simple (after running out to the store to buy the cables I needed), and configuration of the receiver took only a few minutes.
