Great upgrade
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgrading from an old TEAC receiver from the 80’s that didn’t have a phono input and was scratched and had other issues. This Sony receiver was exactly what I needed. It is the perfect modern receiver with a phono input (because I’m a vinyl collector) and Bluetooth. The receiver also has a gain boost for the phono input. This gives the turntable more gain. Really nice feature. This is the perfect 2.0 receiver for Bluetooth and vinyl.

Finally got a receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This receiver is pretty cool. The bluetooth works great..playing music off my phone. My 6 cd changer running from it is awesome. My old speakers(studio monitors) sound great and loud. Room for improvement thing (why 4 stars) is am/fm antenna could be upgraded to bring in better station strengths. But i did read that on reviews so/or/and not big deal to me. Sale price was a final decision to buy. Good quality. Very satisfied.

Posted .Hi Macersgirl, thank you for the detailed review! We're glad you like the easy Bluetooth pairing, powerful sound, good overall quality, and you feel that the price is worth it. 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

Just what I needed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Another great SONY product. I just needed a small no frills receiver for a medium-sized room with two excellent speakers and a large CD collection. No home theatre or other luxuries. This SONY filled the bill perfectly; it has just enough power, is easy to operate and the sound it and the speakers provide is superb. I've bought many SONY electronic products in the past, and based on my experience with this receiver, will continue to do so.

Good player, gets the job done.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed something that would run my turntable. I'm an old guy with vinyl and a turntable I bought in 1979. It's a direct drive (not belted) ultra quiet, counterbalanced beauty that needs a decent amp to run it. Being an old guy with no sense, I discarded my Marantz system (also bought in 1980) and discovered I had no way to play my vinyl. I don't even let my wife touch the records, so there was no way I', buying a cheapo "record player." This seemed like a suitable alternative. It does not disappoint. Now if only I hadn't tossed the Marantz speakers....

Totally easy plug-and-play
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It surpassed the phono amplifier I had imagined in my head. I was looking for something that was easy to set up and it ended up being much easier than anticipated and the sound is great.

Outstanding
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an outstanding stereo receiver that includes Bluetooth for streaming and a phono amp. I got it on sale but even at the list price of $150 it is a bargain. My last Sony receiver lasted over 20 years. My only complaint is the speaker connections are very tiny spring loaded connectors. It was very hard to connect my speakers and I had to get separate connectors

Great Product for Simple Needs
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony STRDH190 is a solid performer for a variety of basic home stereo needs. It has 4 L/R audio inputs, plus an additional phono input for turntables with an MM type cartridge. The unit has bare-wire connectors for two sets of speakers, A and B. The setup guide makes it clear that you MUST have speakers connected to the unit before applying power. Without speakers, the amplifier could fail. Permanently. I really like the built-in Bluetooth capability; I can stream music from my phone or computer without a hassle. This unit replaces a 20+ year-old Sony receiver that served me well for a long time. I expect this one to last at least as long.

Great Receiver/Amp with Turntable Inputs.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a great stereo receiver/amp. It's a SONY, so you know it's top quality. It is powerful. It has multiple inputs. But the main feature, and the reason I bought it -- was the input for a turntable. Like many of us, we still have our old (or new) turntable, and this unit has the correct input for it.And with BestBuy's deals, the price was just too good to pass up. You can't go wrong with this receiver.

Basic Receiver/Simple Set Up
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great simple and basic receiver! I use it to power my outside speakers. It works perfectly for what I need it for. I enjoy the BT feature. I also like that it is smaller than most receivers so it fits perfectly into any tv stand or any furniture that can house A/V components. I own 4 receivers and they are all Sony. They are good quality and stand the test of time.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed an upgrade from an old non bluetooth. Happy I bought it at a good price. Connects to my cell phone easily with a touch of the button on remote. I have it hooked up to a powered subwoofer to watch movies.

Perfect if you don't need multi-channel output
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my wife's studio, replacing a 20-year old JVC receiver. Since it's not being used in a living room or with an entertainment center, 2-channel output was all that was needed. The sound quality is excellent through the Polk speakers already in place. The Bluetooth pairing was effortless. As soon as the receiver is turned on, it immediately syncs with her iPhone. And the quality is as good as the sound when playing CDs or tapes through the unit. Be aware that this receiver is FM only. But you can easily play AM stations through your Bluetooth phone. I'm a longtime fan of Sony equipment, and this is not my first Sony stereo receiver. This one is absolutely the right device for this application... However... A couple of caveats — Sony provides a single-wire antenna with a special plug at the receiver end. The receiver will accept the plug, but there is no way to connect a stand-alone or amplified FM antenna. That said, the FM receiver is so good that even with the single wire we can still get more than a dozen stations clearly. Another thing to consider: most of the functions are controlled by the remote, which works very well. Just be careful not to lose or damage the remote or you'll be out of luck.

Best value around
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought 2 of these for backyard, 1 for patio and 1 for pool. It's Bluetooth ready but didn't know if distance from porch to pool deck was too far. Turns out I only needed 1, works great and sound is beautiful. Hooked up 2 speakers at pool and 2 speakers on patio with 1 receiver. Even the fm radio comes in clear and I get many Moore stations than I used to. Remote control does everything and easy to use.

It also works well with my older sony speakers
