Might work for some but fail for me

My 20 year old Sony receiver finally died. I need something to support my 5 surround speakers and stream audio to my satellite box. The Pyle PDA7BU looked good but was almost useless so I returned it. It had features I didn't need, like two microphone inputs with volume controls for carioca, support for SD and USB inputs, and Bluetooth. I had to take an RCA audio input and connect surround speakers. All the connections were there but it didn't work with volume control and mute - see video. Pros: - Bluetooth, SD card, and USB inputs - Auto scan/save FM radio stations - Short metal body - 2 mic inputs (? I haven't tried it) (- Price dropped $20 after I saw it bought it but seems to have grown it again) Cons: - Remote does not select or control the RCA inputs for volume or mute - Remote does not control power to the unit - FM antenna is not an F-connector - No 5 -Speaker surround sound setting -Not obvious way to change/edit saved FM stations -Almost no manual available (check online) -No headphone jack -Cheap center/surround back speaker jacks The one sent to me also had a kink in the corner of the back wall - see picture. Generally it was a smart thing to collect some features that someone needs but not me. For twice the price I got a replacement Yamaha RX-V385 that had all the features I needed and more. Pyle was smaller than my old Sony, Yamaha was much bigger.
