    This wasn't the amplifier I originally desired but I'm very happy with the Amplifier/Receiver I purchased. I won't be using the receiver but it's presence doesn't bother me.

    Good value for a stereo receiver, only drawback is that you cannot hook up an external antenna. It only has a unique style plug to use with the basic thin wire antenna that comes with the unit. No coax plug or screw terminal plugs.

    This our second purchase. First was to connect outside speakers, inside, xm, etc. This is for smart TVs, surround, xm, etc in lower level. Only complaint is that my speakers.don’t appear to have the same power. Could just be me. Stuck in the old Pioneer receiver days.

    I did not know that I had to have a receiver in order for our speakers to work. I was not told by my salesman that I needed one. So it was an inconvenience to have to make another trip to Best Buy and purchase it before I could have the speakers installed.

    I bought the receiver that I had since late 70s. I bought it a yard sale. After so many years different things no longer worked properly so broke down and replaced it. I did it on line and in a few days it was at my door. I now enjoy listening to the large collection of albums I have.

    I didn't install this unit for 2 months after I purchased it and I'm sorry I waited. I finally replaced my old receiver with this one and I got to say I'm not very impressed with the overall sound compared to my old unit. The highs are very weak especially listening to classical music and it's not the speakers, they sounded great with the old receiver. It seems there's not enough control of bass & treble. It's overly complicated for any adjustments. I'm not happy at all.

    Excellent 2.0 receiver. I'm convinced to go all Sony with future component purchases through Best Buy. Next up will be 5.2; then their turntable. After two Sony 65" TV's, it makes sense.

    5 stars if it had sub woofer output and 75 ohm F type antenna connector. Otherwise doing what I needed. Bought $35 speaker to line level adapter, rigged the antenna connection with a direct coax wire and cable tie strap.

      Hi JeffZ, Thank you for purchasing the Sony STRDH190! Good to know that this is what you've been looking for in a stereo receiver. If your subwoofer supports IN and OUT speaker wire connection. Then you can connect the left and right speaker wires from the stereo receiver into the left and right speaker IN on the subwoofer.

    I bought this for my husband for fathers day, because his was shot & he really likes o watch Tv in stero. We had to return this one and paid almost double for the next upgraded Sony with the 4k so he could hook up all his speakers and have subs or Bass or whatever its called.

    Works fine but I was surprised to learn it does not receive AM stations but not an issue for me - I only listen to FM stations. I was able to plug in all my ((old components but still have not tried them all. So fare, so good.
