    The sound quality and price were excellent for my Sony seven channel stereo receiver. My previous stereo receiver offered a built in seven band equalizer. I didn't think I would be able to find equal sound quality without an equalizer, but this is very acceptable.

    The Sony STRDH190 works great with the in-ceiling speakers that came with our new home. It's easy to use and allows us to stream our favorite music.

      Hi RobertL, Awesome! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying streaming your favorite music and it works great with your in-ceiling speakers. And good to know you like the ease of use of you new Sony STRDH190. 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

    Does what it needs to do and at a great price point. The only complaint I have is it automatically turns on when the Bluetooth on my laptop activated.

    So far? I'm absolutely loving it. I wanted a receiver with a dedicated "phono" input. I have a few turntables, and when I hook them into a more "modern" home theater receiver... (with no phono-had to put it in the CD "in"), it sounds ok? It just has no "punch" or "volume." I even tried a pre amp hook up, but that was all distorted. SO... anyway, this gave me EXACTLY what I was looking for. My records sound fantastic, I also hooked up my CD player, and even a cassette deck. Even though this receiver is somewhat "old school?" It has Bluetooth connectivity, and my phone paired with it instantly. I'm very happy with this receiver, it was priced right (even though I see it for $50 less now!), and I would recommend it highly.. if you're looking for the same things that I was!

    Our old receiver stopped working, got this one on sale. Better sound than the one we had before, this new model comes with bluetooth , now my wife can stream audio from her phone. The sound is excellent for just a 2.0 channels.

    Nice receiver for basic use . I only needed this for my backyard speakers . Bluetooth is a nice feature . The only reason I gave it 4 stars , I bought the floor model and the box said all components were in the box , well I get it home and the remote was missing . No biggy I ordered a replacement remote from the internet and it works fine .

    Nice unit but not the best sound. Ended up returning for a more expensive Yamaha unit. This Sony receiver is fine for streaming music, yet I found the sound to be hollow.

    There aren't many low cost/good quality receivers on the market that still have a phono connection for a record player. Also, the bluetooth works great! I've tried every adapter available for my old stereo and none of them even hold a candle to the reliability and quality of the signal I get to this device.
