      Hi SteveV,

      That's great! We're glad to hear that you like your new Sony AV 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! Thank you for choosing Sony!

    I picked up this receiver for my specific need of more power out of my turntable than an old receiver + pre-amp had. It's inexpensive and it delivered. I read many reviews that the sound quality is bad. It's not great, but quite suitable with some simple tuning features. In short, a good, inexpensive option that doesn't need tons of features or surround.

    Great receiver! The A&B channel very convenient, as you can have one set of speakers on while the other set is off, or just have all speakers on at the same time. The audio volume is great as well!

    Wanted a receiver in my garage and this one is perfect. The Bluetooth feature is great and allows me to stream music all day while outside. I don’t currently have my turntable hooked up because it’s my garage receiver, but who knows where I’ll use it in the future. Very happy with the purchase so far.

    If you want good FM reception, this is not a good receiver. If you want to by an aftermarket free standing FM antenna. you're pretty much screwed. Sony has the strangest FM antenna connection I've ever seen. It is not normal and no one, not even Sony(that I could find anywhere) makes a free standing antenna that will connect. I ultimately returned it for that reason

    It’s just ok. The speaker terminals are way too small to properly fit the wire. It’s definitely not 100WPC, either. Not much bottom end even with bass all the way up. I’d go with the similarly priced Yamaha.

      Hi JK4311, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your Sony STRDH190. We appreciate your feedback about the size of the speaker terminals of this receiver. The speaker receptacle is compatible with the commonly use speaker wire gauge. I'd recommend using right speaker wires that are between 12 to 16 gauge. I'd also suggest you connect an active subwoofer if you feel that the bass level is insufficient.
      For compatible subwoofer, check the subwoofer to determine if it has IN and OUT speaker wire connections. If so, connect the left and right speaker wires from the stereo receiver into the left and right speaker IN on the subwoofer. Then, connect speaker wire from the left and right speaker OUT on the subwoofer to the left and right main speakers.

      If the subwoofer does not have IN and OUT speaker wire connections, then it will not be compatible with the stereo 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 sharing your feedback. -Sam Sony_US

    The unit is designed with simplicity at its core. Just the right amount of technology with the power and precision of a Receiver 5 times the value. If you want to revive your vinyls; there is no better way to get the best out of your music than sleek Sony Receiver.
