A:AnswerHi FELIX, Thank you for your interest in the Sony STRDH190. The STRDH190 has a built-in FM radio tuner. But, there is no AM radio.Please check these older models STR-DN1050 and STR-DN850 if you're looking for an AM tuner feature. Hope this helps! -Sam
A:AnswerI can't answer the specific question about am/fm. I bought the Sony for the phono input which other amplifiers don't include. I suspect a tuner could be coupled up as there are inputs on the back of the Sony for various devices. Hope that helps.
