“Should a preamp be used with this receiver? I have a Rolls phono preamp VP 29. When I had it hooked up, it distorted the sound significantly, but without the preamp, I have to raise the volume considerably to get good sound. Any thoughts?”

Hi 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
