For the last few months, I have used a Technics SA-160 receiver as a bedroom unit. I found it for less than $20 at Goodwill. I snatched it up because the balance was slightly off and a couple of LEDs were burnt out on my Sony unit.
The Technics SA-160 is less powerful than the Sony. But, certainly does well as a secondary unit.
Serious audiophiles will probably scoff at this receiver. For example, this poster on Head-Fi pronounced it black plastic crap.
However, in the dirt cheap audio space, working trumps all specifications. Since space is at a premium in our new space, I'll probably re-donate this unit and use a micro system or radio instead. I have a couple that work really well.
