    Good so far--too early to judge durability

    It's too soon after our purchase to evaluate how the receiver will perform over time. But it has been excellent so far. The Geek Squad's installation of it in our complex home theater set up went very smoothly.

      Hi Journeyman, Thank you for purchasing the Sony STRDH190! Good to know you're having a great time so far with your new receiver. Whether you choose to enjoy the warm sound of vinyl via the phono input, or stream music from your digital music collection, you’ve found a perfect match. Don’t forget the receiver’s A=B function lets you connect two pairs of speakers. You can easily switch between A or B or use them all together at the same time. When you factor in the low-profile design, we’re sure you’ve found the flexibility and performance you’ve been looking for! Thanks for choosing Sony! -Sam Sony_US

    Excellent sound. Intuitive controls. Never occurred to me when I bought it that anyone would make a receiver with NO AM receiver. Not interested in rural customers I guess.

    I needed a receiver that I could play music via WiFi from my iPad. My system is older (hard-wired speakers behind the walls). It took me less than 5 minutes to hook up. Works perfectly!!!
