    Awesome receiver for the price! Has A and B stereo hookups, used one pair for my speakers, one pair for the sub works perfect. I also have my turntable hooked up directly to phono input, bluetooth for my phone and multiple line in for the TV. Can't be beat!

      Hi MooJr, We're glad to hear you feel that the STRDH190 is worth its price! Good to know you appreciate the A and B stereo hookups, phone input for a turntable, Bluetooth function, and line-in connection for your TV. 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 sharing your feedback! -Sam Sony_US

    I bought this because I live in a rural area and reception is horrible. I can pair it with my iPhone and iHeart or Pandora and have the world at my ears and it sounds great with my Klipsch or Kenwood speakers. That remote is real convenient.

    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.

    Bought this to replace an older Sony that finally gave out. The old one was surround sound, but was only being used to drive a couple of stereo speakers to play LP's and CD's. The bluetooth on this unit was an added plus. Easy set up and great sound.

    If you are looking for a nice receiver to listen to your music and don't want to spend a lot, this is a great choice. Solid delivery by Sony, easy to use, great sound quality. This sets up perfectly for an apartment or moderately sized living room. Good choice of sound field definitions to offer some customization for your various music genre's.

    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.

    This amplifier also brought my living room to life again. I LOVE hearing my surround sound again. My original receiver got too old and stopped working. At only about $99, this was a STEAL for me. Thanks, Best Buy. I love hearing the good vibes again. I set the happy tone for my day listening to sweet, sweet music!

    Nice unit for the price. Happy with sound quality. Some reviewer reported problems inserting speaker wires. But I was able to use our old Cyrus speakers without any trouble. Other reviewers note that it doesn't have an AM channel. One can easily stream that from, say, one's phone via the unit's Bluetooth capability.

    Two years running I've had mine. Bought this one for my Dad. It goes with our AudioTechnica LP 120s. (fancy record player). It kicks butts. I listen to a sleepy playlist every night via bluetooth (for the last two years). Also I play classic vinyls at HIGH volumes while folding laundry. It does both VERY WELL.
