    Our new home had built in speakers that we really wanted to use instead of a soundbar. In doing our research we found this model was rated high for our needs. We were suprised to see it at BestBuy and on sale. It was easy to hook up and blends in well with our TV.

      Hi Mack, Thank you for the 5-star rating! We're glad to hear it works great with the built-in speakers in your home and you find it very easy to hook up with your TV. Hi Rege, That's awesome! We're glad to hear you feel that the STRDH190 receiver is worth its price. 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! -Sam Sony_US

    This Sony is really great for the money. There’s a NY Times review that says the same thing. It has turntable jacks. Yay! Looks great. Sounds good. The blue tooth paired right up with my iPad and iPhone which have music on them, and I can play utube music through my stereo. The remote is intuitive. A great buy, so far.

    Music to my ears

    This works very well as my second sound system in another room where I use only quality bookshelf speakers. The bluetooth feature works very well so I can play music off my phone. The A-B speaker selection is very good as I use two different brand of bookshelf speakers with each brand having a different sound to my ears. The remote control provides full control over the receiver and is really easy to use. This receiver also allows you to use 6 ohm speakers as well as the standard 8 ohm speakers. This was purchased to replace my old Sony two channel reciever that finally died after many years of use in playing almost every day from morning to late afternoon.

    I appreciate how easy it was to set this up. Coming from a 7 speaker multi channel advanced receiver which was not easy to troubleshoot issues I enjoyed setting up this Sony receiver. My needs are a lot simpler now and this receiver was up and running in 30 minutes. Sound is crisp and clear. I’m also excited I can play my Vinyl again too

    I have only owned for a month now and, to date, I could not be happier with this receiver. I was concerned, given its price, that sound quality would not be good. It has, however, given new life to my BO bookshelf speakers - they never sounded better. Simple to set up and simply to use. Hopefully built quality is up to Sony standards and it will last a long time.

    This was a gift for our daughter who needed a receiver so that she could use her new turntable and speakers. She loves it! It has more than enough power for her to play her music at a probably-louder-than-the-neighbors-would-like level, and she can use it with her phone if she just wants to play music off her Spotify.

    I was looking for a solid stereo receiver with a turntable amp to hook up with my turntable. I think this one cost less than the Sony receiver I bought 20 years ago. Great sound and it has Bluetooth capability for connecting with my iPhone or iPad. My only regret is it doesn’t have a Bluetooth connectivity for wireless headphones.

    I finally found what I was looking for a while; price, good name and quality to boot. I really wanted to get an Amp that had quality of sound and acceptable power. I love the Amp so much that I returned to purchased a second unit for our additional room at home. The second unit was as good as the first one, excellent.
