Good unit for garage tunes, poor volume control
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice unit for garage tunes. The volume dial feels rather wonky when spun by hand as many have reported. Blue tooth connection and automatic turn on of unit from I-phone is very nice feature! Unfortunately, the volume control from the I-phone is limited at "50" maximum on the dial display which is ok for casual listening but not cranking to rock out. Poor design by limiting remote volume management to some arbitrary mid-level value.

Posted .Hi Wadnik,
Thanks for the feedback. Please be assured we take this feedback very seriously and continuously strive to improve our products. 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!
Regards,
David

Good Performance, Low Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was replacing a Sony receiver that was having issues after several decades. I chose this one because of the good experience I had with my older unit, and because of the reasonable price. It seems to provide quality sound. The two downsides from my perspective: (1) it has only FM, no AM; (2) the all-black front looks sleek, I guess, but it is very difficult to see the controls and buttons in low or dim light.

We value your inputs and appreciate the feedback. Unfortunately, the STRDH190 does not have an AM tuner, only FM, along with all its other features including Bluetooth connectivity, dedicated inputs for a phono/turntable, and more. 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.

Posted .Hi inpersonnotonline, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your Sony STRDH190 receiver. We're glad you like the great sound quality, adjustable treble and bass, and A/B speaker switch function of this receiver. We also appreciate your feedback about the size of the speaker connectors. We highly recommend connecting speaker wires that are anywhere between 12 to 16 gauge which are most commonly used for connecting speakers to an amplifier or an Audio/Video (A/V) receiver.

Great 2 Channel Receiver
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a new receiver for my back patio TV to power the in-ceiling speakers. Wanted something with some power, bluetooth, and good sound. More powerful than several of the others at this price point, bluetooth connects easily, and it sounds great. Would buy it again.

Worth checking out!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have not had luck with amplifiers lately. This one had great reviews so I purchased it. So far I really like it. No real complaints for the amp. I have it hooked up to a pair of Klipsch RF-7s. So far the amp has performed well. After the amp warms up and I find the sweet spot on the volume I turn pure direct on and it sounds great. I don’t believe you’ll find a comparable amp at this price point.

Great Stereo Receiver With a Phonograph Hookup
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This receiver was the perfect choice for my stereo system. After my other receiver quit working many years ago, this was nice to have my record player connect to it and have it operating again. The added Bluetooth feature works great in allowing me to connect my phone and play other music I have saved to my phone. The price was right too!

Great choice for Vinayl Fans
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had this for a couple of weeks. Needed a quick replacement for a vintage amp that was going wonky. This is just the ticket if you need an inexpensive stereo amp with a phono input. Ordered online at about 8 PM, picked it up with curbside service at around 8:50. Was listening to music by 9:30. A flawless transaction.
