    Same thing as a stereo reciever. NOT an AVR ( audio video reciever ). Most common recievers now are for home entertainment centers for surround sound processing which will be more than two channel and have video connections.

    Will power ONE pair of speakers. Sometimes two, but you will have less power going to each speaker

    A sign of the times I suppose.......sigh.

    Just like someone asking what to do with a mechanical watch when it stops. Wind it!

    This is a two-channel audio receiver :-)

    It is only a "receiver" if it has an FM (or AM/FM) tuner section in it as well as preamp/switching and a power amplifier all in one compact package (OK, the Baroque Marantz 2600 above isn't exactly compact...).
