    Bought this simple Receiver to use with two speakers and a turntable, and what do ya know? It works really well for that setup! No complaints. Just enough control over settings.

The STR-DH190 has four analog audio inputs and one output, for easy connection to your audio recording device and other audio equipment. 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. ~Earl Sony_US

    I got this product so that my husband could finally add speakers to his turntable, that our children got him for Father's Day about 3 years ago! It works so well, even beyond our expectation!

    I bought this receiver to hook up to my TV. I got tired of sound bars and peripheral speakers and went back to a 2 channel unit. It may not have all the ambiance of of the multi-channel units but it sounds great in my family room. The only minus is the lack of an optical input.

    Very good quality and excellent sound. Only thing that could make it better would be to have some light on front of receiver to help you see the controls. Especially on/off. I have mine in a cabinet and it is very difficult to find / see.

    This produces great sound and plenty of power for my two ceiling speakers. The Bluetooth range is incredible. I was all the way upstairs and outside probably 40 feet away through floors and walls and it was still connected and playing.
