A friend wants to give me this reciever.Read the Specs on it. 110w in 4ohm and 70w in 8ohm. What are opinions on this? worth the drive to check out?

I used to sell those, nice little receivers. One up from the entry level 440vxi, actually 45 wpc. A product of the cost cutting years when every series was lighter than the previous one. Not a monster at 15 lbs but good sound quality.

A nice little receiver if you can buy it cheap, and you don't need to impress the neighbors.
