My old 1970's receiver just died. Is this receiver compatible with my old equipment?

You don't say what type of connections are on your older equipment. I can't remember if I was able to see the rear of the receiver on the website. If you can, zoom in and see if the connections are the same and has all the hook ups you need. Good luck!

It will work fine, I do miss having knobs to control bass treble and balance though.

My RCA Receiver from around 1996, was connected to an older JVC dual tape player, a disc player about the same age, and a fairly new Sony record turn table. It died and I bought the Sherwood Receiver last year. All these devices worked fine with the new Sherwood RX4109, receiver, in fact sounded better. I like it. CK

Yes it should work great. this receiver has a phono input along with the usual line (analog) inputs plus you get the added benefit of a remote controlled receiver - a modern upgrade that is appreciated.

The Sherwood is like a retro-receiver, it even has a phono input for a turntable. If your old equipment is set up for stereo, it should work just fine. It'll probably sound even better than ever.

Probably. I replaced an old 1960s amplifier and everything worked great -- even better, in fact. It is a basic 2 channel amplifier -- it works best with old style speakers. It has an adequate AM/FM tuner. It plays CDs and has a phono input if you have a turntable. There is a tape input but no "Tape Monitor" function which my old amp had. Makes recording a little more difficult, but possible. It is a very good inexpensive old style stereo amplifier. I still like it a lot.

Yes. This is a great receiver but be advised this model was in the 450$ range when I purchased it. I believe this one is discontinued so a current compatible model might be cheaper.

That I don't know. I don't believe so. You can find the manual online if you google it. It should be in there. Let me say though that I have had and continue to have major problems with mine. I have to reset it constantly because I lose audio for some reason. Then I have to go through the setup process all over. Also have problems with the hdmi connections. Wouldn't recommend this receiver to anyone.

Should be fine with your receiver. There are usually several places on receivers to plug in accessory machines that use phono plug inputs. If you're replacing your cd player with this machine, it could plug into the same place where the old machine was plugged into, for instance. I love this machine. Great old school technology and you can randomly shuffle and have continuous music for a long time.

Yes, I'd say you can. I'm currently using it with an old 1999 Sony Home Theater Stereo system. Works great as long as you have RCA connections to the amp/receiver.

yes, this is the receiver I am using, it sounds great, but you may want to get a powered sub...

They should be compatible with most, if not all, receivers. You might have to splice the cables to attach to the alternate receiver. You might want to double check on a Sony AV board but I use to use Sony speakers with my old Technics bedroom setup.

I am using my pinoneer speakers which are about 15 years old. They sound great. So as long as you have any decent set of speakers, they will work fine with the receiver.

What I would do - is get an older receiver off of fleabay or crglst. But these will take up a lot of desk space. Once you get away from the top of the line models - some old stuff sells for quite cheap. One quick check on crglst for me locally gets - http://raleigh.craigslist.org/ele/4876097189.html

Check the rear of the receiver. If there is an RCA connector marked "sub out" or "lfe out" or similar, it will work just fine. It will probably be yellow in color. I'd be very surprised if there wasn't such a connector on any modern receiver.

It should pair pretty much with any receiver. A vintage piece with a 'Phono' device input will most likely *not* need a phono preamp unit -- which will be necessary for recent receivers.

I have a Yamaha receiver (its about 7 years old) and it works find. I'm sure any newer model would work fine.. I have 4 different versions of the Harmony and they all work very well. I HIGHLY recommend these devices for people that have to deal with multiple home auto systems.. I will never go back to a regular remotes especially now that I gave 2 kids that lose everything!!

Alas, no. I also have an old turntable, and there is no appropriate connection to the receiver.

If your receiver is RF compatible the answer is yes. Most newer receivers are RF compatible. Some of the older ones were not. Look in your remote setup and see if there is an RF option for the remote in the setup or call Directv with your receiver model number and ask them.

Go to RCA's website, download the digital copy of the manual, and look for your particular old receiver. My TV wasn't specifically listed, but there were 4 codes for the brand. The first one worked. Based on my personal experience, I think it will probably work. But, you know, it is only about $7, live dangerously and take a chance!

Don't quite understand what you're asking. This unit will take a digital out from something, either with optical or rca and turn it into analog, so you can use older receivers, etc

Yes, in fact I had the old one you are talking about, this one is full audio on all hdmi. Its a great receiver
