This model circa 2003 is a decent receiver and has enough power (100W per channel) for most home use. It predates HDMI but has optical and coax digital inputs so can be used for surround sound. It has tape monitor so can be used with older analog tape and speaker processors.

Like others, I bought this based on consumer reports review. It is a great piece of equipment. It has just the right amount of features without all the useless fluff that a lot of newer receivers have. Surround sounds great, it even has a phono mode. Remote is ok, not too complicated like other receivers. Like other Panasonic electronics that I've owned, I'm sure it will last a long time. If you see one of these on ebay, grab it!
I was looking for a digital receiver that had an option of adding an equalizer. Sadly, none of the current digital receivers on the market provide this option. An old Consumer Report had given a good review to the Panasonic SA HE75 so I decided to buy the similar but more powerful SA HE100. And I have not been disappointed. It sounds great!!! Combining equalizer to the receiver gives me great satisfaction when listening to stereo music. Of course I am able to go completely digital (without equalizer) when watching movies. My only gripe, if any, is that the output could have been more powerful. However, if you are in the market looking for a digital receiver that can combine equalizer, the Panasonic SA HE100 is a great option!
