Depende how it was used and anong klaseng speakers yung ka-packaged. Personally I like older models of receivers since they are for me, better constructed that the recent ones. I like the SR-703 because it still has a phono input, pre-outs and 7.1 analogue inputs which are almost disappearing from newer models. So unless you can live without HDMI connections and DTS-HDMA or Dolby True HD, go for it. Tawaran mo na lang ng 50% off, baka naman ibigay since he is your friend.
