Subwoofer Capable but No Volume Control
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm very pleased with this purchase. I don't know why the Sony experts and other customers keep saying that you cannot connect a subwoofer to the STR-DH190 which is not true. In the "Input 4" is a "Line Out" which serves as that function. The only problem is that you can't control the volume. I have a Mac mini 2014 connected to the STR-DH190 which is connected to "Klipsch - Reference Series 5-1/4" 340-Watt Passive 2-Way Bookshelf Speakers" and in the Line Out I'm connected to a "Klipsch K-100SW 10-Inch Powered Subwoofer" and everything works fine. You don't need to buy the STRDH590 for a hundred more. It just depends how serious you are and what's your budget.

Posted .Hi headlocker, We're very grateful for this positive feedback! Good to know that you've managed to get your subwoofer to work with this receiver. We only recommend connecting 2 channel speakers to this receiver since we cannot guarantee the full operation of connecting a subwoofer.
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! -Sam

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.make sure you understand that you need a speaker that is sony because you get the best quality and you get your money worth dont but or get any another speaker that not sony because it can blow your speakers and it will not be the realest power for your receiver i suggest a bookself two way speaker and a 14 gauge wirer so the ohm are good enough to keep it lasting forever and you will be fine wish you the best and i know noone listens to me so ✌️
