    Good inexpensive receiver. Have it paired with so mid range speakers and the sound is OK, I'm sure it can drive better speakers. BT is good but it connects and turns on as soon as it detects a device which is a little annoying. All in all a solid receiver for the money.

      Hi SipnEat, thank you so much for the 4-stars rating! We are pleased to hear you are satisfied with the overall performance of your new STR-DH190 Stereo receiver with Bluetooth. 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!

      We are sorry if the Bluetooth function of this receiver did not meet your expectations. As part of the normal operation, the receiver connects to the last connected BLUETOOTH device. The BLUETOOTH connection will be disconnected when you perform either of the following operations:
      • Switch the input.
      • Turn off the BLUETOOTH function on the BLUETOOTH device.
      • Press BLUETOOTH PAIRING.
      • Turn off the receiver or the BLUETOOTH device.
      • Press BLUETOOTH on the receiver again.

    Great sound for the money. No all situations need surround sound but this does allow you to attach 4 speakers. You can turn on the unit simply by attaching via bluetooth which is a great option for locations the remote does not reach.

    I purchased a turntable and then purchased the Sony receiver along with some Sony tower speakers and it sounds great. This receiver has the power to get the sound I was looking for.

    Bought this receiver on-line with pick-up at store. Service was very good. When I got this receiver and took it out of the box, the unit looks a lot better in person than on-line. It was a bit hefty which to me speaks to Sony making a solid unit. Then I hooked it up the dvd player and my Mirage speakers tweeked bass ,trebel, and mid range to suit the room. All I can say is wow I never thought I could get a unit with the sound bit puts out for well under $300.00. If you need a new receiver and you have a limited budget this is the one to buy! Bill K

    Easy connections with the speakers and CD player. Unfortunately, when we tried to connect our older turntable, it was unsuccessful and there was only a loud screeching noise. We are still trying to figure out if our turntable can be used with this system.

      Hi cooktop, We regret to hear that your turntable was unsuccessful in connecting to the STR-DH190 Stereo receiver with Bluetooth. To connect a turntable to a stereo system, the stereo system should have a PHONO input. If a PHONO input is not available, the turntable must have a built-in amplifier or an in-line amplifier must be used to connect the turntable to another input on the stereo system.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We were very surprised to see that this unit does NOT have the ability to receive AM radio stations. Easy to set up and very easy to set the Preset stations. We seldom listen to AM radio stations, although it just would not seem right to not have the ability to listen to AM if we wanted to. Especially in bad weather conditions when we want to listen to local radio stations. What a shame. Otherwise it seems to be a good unit. Only reason I would not recommend this to a friend is because of the lack of the AM stations. We did not realize that it did not have AM and now only see that it is noted that way in the small print.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
