I support this recommendation: I had an STR-550 for I don't know how long, and it was always on the blink. It started with the tuner going bad, which kept going bad no matter how many times I got it fixed. Then the remote, then the display, then the front panel controls. I usually only listened to CDs, and if I left it turned on (always) and left it in AUX mode it wouldn't complain. Since I'm pretty lazy, I was somewhat satisfied to keep it in that condition... Dave
