    My husban bought a stereo system 30 years ago when he was in the Army. I finally convinced him to upgrade the components. For the money this receive has been great for us. He has a 6 disc changer, TV, and 30 year old speakers hooked up to it. Everything is working and sounding fantastic. He had it set up in under 10 minutes.

    The Sony STR-DH190 exceeds all my expectations for listening to albums and radio broadcasts. If you are more interested in home theater audio gear this may not be your first choice.

      Hi John, We're glad to hear you feel that the STRDH190 is worth its price! Good to know you like the ease of installation and easy Bluetooth pairing of your new 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. -Sam Sony_US

    Great Stereo Receiver, the volume nob is a little tight, it could be easier to turn, and the FM antenna is about as flimsy as you can get.

    Does exactly the job I bought it for, and it does it well. I'm using it a a Bluetooth preamp for my Phase Linear 500 amp driving my legacy ESS AMT 2 Rock Monitors in my garage. (My wife won't allow them in the house). Now, I have crystal clear sound from punchy bass to feather light highs at any volume I like...

    Exactly what I was looking for, at a price I can live with. Needed a shop stereo to play music over two small speakers in the clean room, and two large speakers in the outside shop. This has the watts to push the speakers, separate channels for inside and outside, and bluetooth to boot. Only way to make it better is to make it free.

    Wonderful receiver for streaming music via Bluetooth or listing to FM radio stations. This was purchased for the sun room/back yard area where complicated surround sound settings aren’t needed. Receiver has A/B speaker control allowing you to listen to music in two different areas or both at the same time.

    I was looking for a stereo only receiver for my garage/shop. Using for stereo music in the the shop and with outdoor speakers. Does well pushing my old Klipsch K4's as well as the Kicker outdoor speakers. Bluetooth has good range as I can control it from outside the garage with all doors to garage closed at about 50-60 feet.

    I wanted to buy an inexpensive receiver with a remote control for my TV audio. I have a couple of really old very high quality speakers (15" bi-axial Altec-Lansing). This amp powers them amply and the TV audio is great (further enhanced with a new Polk sub-woofer). I'm very pleased with the product's performance.
