    Loving this Receiver

    The first one I bought had an issue but BestBuy replaced it and that's when I really got to see the benefits of this receiver. It did exactly what I wanted, the Bluetooth functionality is a big plus and I really needed it for the phono capability. The sound is great (sony quality) and the price point cannot be better. I do wish there was a bass output but I ended up making it work the best I could. Overall for the price, brand, and sound I would definitely recommend.

      Hi Zals, We're glad to hear you that the replacement unit is working great for you. Every component in the STR-DH190 has been designed for detail and clarity. We hope you also enjoy the BLUETOOTH for easy connection with mobile devices and the A and B speaker function for flexible installation. Thank you for choosing SONY. -Sam Sony_US

    Great Stereo Receiver With a Phonograph Hookup

    This receiver was the perfect choice for my stereo system. After my other receiver quit working many years ago, this was nice to have my record player connect to it and have it operating again. The added Bluetooth feature works great in allowing me to connect my phone and play other music I have saved to my phone. The price was right too!

      Hi TomH64, Thank you for purchasing the STRDH190. You've made an excellent choice. Good to her you appreciate the added Bluetooth feature and it works great with your phone. 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

    Had this for a couple of weeks. Needed a quick replacement for a vintage amp that was going wonky. This is just the ticket if you need an inexpensive stereo amp with a phono input. Ordered online at about 8 PM, picked it up with curbside service at around 8:50. Was listening to music by 9:30. A flawless transaction.

    Bought this to power 2 vintage jbl P-30 speakers. Simple 2 channel with decent power and clean transparent sound. Simple bass and treble boost/cut Definitely fits the bill!

    I needed a new receiver for my back patio TV to power the in-ceiling speakers. Wanted something with some power, bluetooth, and good sound. More powerful than several of the others at this price point, bluetooth connects easily, and it sounds great. Would buy it again.

    This is a great receiver for basic use. I bought it for 2 reasons. One is that it is Bluetooth capable so I can stream SiriusXM and other apps. The other reason is that it has the ability to operate 2 sets of speakers. I have one set mounted on the back of my house so I can play music while hosting a backyard cookout or just enjoy while grilling my own dinner. The other set of speakers is mounted in my garage so I can listen when working in my shop area.

    Sony to replace a 30 year old Yamaha

    Four stars because of the black finish. Grey metallic would have been preferable and easier to read the button lettering. Classical music sounds great through my old trusty Bose loudspeakers. There is some heat build-up underneath, but the manual explains - it's normal. This Sony Receiver replaces Yamaha tuner, amplifier, tape player, 5CD player stack that was purchased at Circuit City 30 years ago!

    Great quality receiver with easy speaker connection and a wide choice of inputs. The phono input works great for my turntable and the standard inputs work great for my CD player. The Bluetooth connection works well but has a bit of an annoying delay when I'm trying to stream movie sound through it from my computer. It's perfect for music though. It would be nice if it had a 3.5mm headphone jack for audio output. It only has what I believe is a 6.35mm size.
