A:AnswerHi Josh, Thanks for your inquiry. The STRDH190 supports 4 RCA audio inputs. If your xm satellite receiver supports RCA audio connection then it should work. Hope this helps! -Sam

A:AnswerHi APReichard, Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately, you cannot connect a wireless speaker to the unit. We recommend connecting wired speakers to the speaker ports of the unit that are within the impedance rating of 6 to 16 ohms. Hope this helps! -Sam
A:AnswerHi nirsighted, Thank you for your interest in the STRDH190. Unfortunately, no. An equalizer/preamp needs to be connected to the tape monitor loop on an AV receiver in order to operate. The current line of Sony receivers does not have a tape monitor loop. For this reason, it is not possible to connect an add-on equalizer to current Sony AV receivers.
NOTE: Most Sony receivers feature a built-in Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Equalizer. The addition of an equalizer is not needed and would provide no additional benefit to the overall sound output of the receiver.
Regards,
Sam
A:AnswerHi nirsighted, Thanks for your inquiry. Yes! your speakers will work perfectly with the receiver since the STRDH190 requires connecting speakers that are within the impedance rating of 6-16 ohms. And yes, you can connect your TV to the RCA audio IN port of the receiver. Hope this helps! -Sam
A:AnswerYes there is a digital switch reached via the remote. Directions to this is in the manual and an easy setup whether you are using 8 or 6 ohm.
Most functions are through remote.
Just make sure ohms for speakers match ohm you set.
Of course be sure speakers polarity plus and negative are hooked up correctly.
Is this unit over the top load? No but plenty load through good speakers. I replaced basically the same unit (10 years old) to get Bluetooth. My old one will find its way to workshop. This one is for my painting studio.
Plenty of hookups for CD and turntable. It also has preamp built in.
For the price it is very nice.
If you want something for surround sound for tv and movies I would look for specifically designed unit. This one is really nice for music.
Bluetooth pairs easily.
Hope this helps. I know my granddaughters were able to connect with no issues. I had to read manual.
A:AnswerHi there, Thank you for your interest in the STRDH190. You can connect your TV to the RCA audio IN port of the receiver and pair your phone to the receiver via Bluetooth connection. However, there are no HDMI inputs to connect your Roku device. I would recommend connecting your Roku to your TV instead. Hope this helps! -Sam
A:AnswerHi Dabis, The speaker output can only be switched to mono when listening to FM tuner (Refer to the link below for instructions.). However, you cannot switch the speaker output when listening to Bluetooth, or the Audio devices that are connected to Audio IN port.
