    Great sound. Rotary dial is so easy to change inputs. Inputs can be renamed on display so easy to switch. Remote does everything so I never have to get out of my chair. Very happy with this purchase. Connection with bluetooth is a bonus.

      Hi amourdelamusique, That's great! We're thrilled to hear you like the amazing sound quality, easy to use controls and user interface, and Bluetooth feature of your new 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 Sony_US

    ¡WOW! I'm just mezmorized the sound for the price is like having a AUDIOPHILE SYSTEM that is worth THOUSANDS I was skeptic at first because i only had 2 very old Panasonic bookshelf speakers with only a small 4.5 woofer and a 2.5 tweeter that can hold 50 watts RMS and boy I was so surpriced. I don't need anything else. I'm so happy.

    I bought this to have more audio flexibility with my turntable. It’s such a great alternative. Has phono input so I don’t even need my uturn Pluto. It has Bluetooth so if I ever wanna go rogue and listen to Spotify or something I’m good there. It’s pretty easy to set up and all.

    Sony STRDH190 Stereo Receiver Review

    The Sony STRDH190 is an excellent foundation to build a stereo system around. It was the least expensive receiver with a phono input that I could find, with plenty of amplifier power AND Bluetooth connectivity. The setup is straightforward and the remote control is a great real-world convenience. And most importantly, the sound is everything I could want!

    Easy bluetooth pairing, crystal clear and punchy sound, loud enough for an indoor karaoke party with just two bookshelf speakers and a passive sub. I guarantee you will not find a new amp that's better than this for the price. Be careful with handling as these are known to break if bumped or dropped. The bass is a bit on the boomy and fatiguing side for extended listening if you don't use a powered subwoofer. There is a small bit of background hiss but you wont notice it unless you have it paused.

    It is a simple 2 Channel amp that does what is is supposed to do. Phono/Bluetooth/Line all work great. it has a simple "bass/treble" EQ and impedance settings and that is it in terms of settings. Only minor complaint is the antenna they provide for FM radio wasn't sufficient to get decent reception. That could be specific to my location though.

    I bought this receiver to replace a Sony receiver I had for over 40 years that quit working. It works very well with the CD and cassette players which are also over 40 years, plus a new Sony turntable I purchased to replace an older one that also quit working. The FM reception, the sound quality from the various audio components all are very good.
