    Even though I have set the BT Menu to STBY OFF (standby off), it sometimes comes on or changes from another setting to BT when I open and turn on my laptop, and sometimes it doesn't. I've learned to live with it and otherwise, it serves me well.

      Hello jo264,

      We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with your Sony STR-DH190 while using STBY feature .

      To resolve this, please try the following steps:

      Distance Management: Try to keep a reasonable distance between your laptop and the receiver if possible, to avoid unintended Bluetooth interaction.

      Turn Off BT Power in AMP Menu: Make sure the BT power is turned off in the AMP menu when not in use. This will prevent the receiver from automatically switching to Bluetooth mode.

      Reset the Receiver will help if there is a glitch in the software:
      Press (power) to turn off the receiver then press and hold (power) for 5 seconds

      Here is the link and you can go to page 32 and 29 for further reference:

      Thank you for trusting Sony!

    Perfect for me. I either listen the radio or my own music. It has a FM tuner and Bluetooth. With several inputs for 'other' media. Simple to operate . Connected to a pair of PolK audio bookshelf speakers and the sound is spot on.

      Hi PureK,

      Awesome! We're glad that you found the perfect 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!

    I have had many Sony Receivers over the years. This one is easy to set up and work with. Nice change from the old one I had. Hopefully this one will last as long as my previous receiver. That one lasted about 20 years. I a haven't set up the blue tooth yet. But that's a nice feature.

    Only had to connect the receiver to my phone once. Now each time I want to connect via Bluetooth all I have to do is turn the receiver on in the vicinity of my phone and it automatically connects every time. Super convenient.

    This thing can push some serious watts. I've heard receivers with twice the wattage sound weak and maxed well before it should. I don't get to really crank up to often but when I do, it rocks!
