Great sound for the price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The right speaker A doesn't work. I only need one set of speakers so I'm using speaker B until I decide if returning the receiver is worth the uninstall/reinstall effort.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good receiver. However, I was very disappointed that Sony decided not to directly output audio, via bluetooth, to wireless headphones -- they do sell Sony wireless headphones.

Posted .Hi WhyHP, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your STRDH190. Although it doesn't have the capability to connect to Bluetooth headphones, there is an option to connect it via the headphone jack in front of the 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

good for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought since it was a Sony it would be better than it actually is. It is just OK. I have a little trouble zoning in on a couple of channels. I don't know if it is the receiver or maybe just my location.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a big CD collection and needed an amp dedicated to just music. This receiver is beyond what I expected.

Great Receiver Stereo and Bluetooth
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does exactly what you need it to. But for some reason the phono in just doesnt produce as clean of a sound as the other RCA's but I might just be using it wrong.

Works Well for My Purposes
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This receiver is being used to power two sets of outdoor speakers around a pool. The unit is housed in a closet. I use the bluetooth feature with my iphone and it works pretty well, although the range seems to vary from time to time.

Extremely weak phono
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought to use with record player. Unfortunately the phono preamp in this thing is ridiculously weak. It works fine for digital inputs, but the volume for playing records is completely unacceptable. If that's what you are purchasing it for, look elsewhere, or buy a separate phono pre instead.
