    It's a nice 2 channel receiver. It pairs nicely with one of Sony's turntables.

    I purchased this Sony receiver to replace my Mom's 35+ year old Pioneer (state of the art at one time!). She wanted to hook up the 3 devices she had(CD, Tape DFech & Phono). Easy installation and loved the not-too-confusing remote that comes with unit. It has a Bluetooth option, as well as a line-in option as well. PERFECT !!

    Basic receiver with Phono in (and plenty of other inputs) and the ability to play to A/B speaker pairs (or simultaneously). Really great for the money.

      Hi RossCav3, Thank you for the amazing review! We're glad you like the Phono IN option, A/B speaker feature, and overall features of your Sony STRDH190 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

      Hi Happy,

      Thank you for sharing your amazing experience so far with your new STRDH190 2.0ch Stereo Receiver with Bluetooth. We're glad you like the overall performance of the product. We're sorry for the inconvenience regarding the optical wire plug-in. For this, kindly check the connection of the optical digital cable that is connected to the receiver and the TV. Most optical cables ship with a clear protective sleeve on one end or both ends of the optical cable depending on the type of connectors it has. If the optical cable does not plug into the optical port of the audio device correctly, remove this sleeve to use the cable.

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.

    OK for quick replacement of Quality JVC Receiver for Vietnam-Era PX Japanese 1968 unit that just Quit suddenly. Easily powering my 100-Watt 8 Ohm Sansui Floor Speakers. Needs more control for equalization of the sound, especially the mid-range.
