    Its not a bad reciever and serves the purpose. I'm use to my old pioneer reciever that had surround sound and many other options but i will get use to it. Its hard focusing on radio stations.

      Hi CajsLilBear, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your STRDH190! 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

    I bought this for my husband for fathers day, because his was shot & he really likes o watch Tv in stero. We had to return this one and paid almost double for the next upgraded Sony with the 4k so he could hook up all his speakers and have subs or Bass or whatever its called.

      Hi JeffZ, Thank you for purchasing the Sony STRDH190! Good to know that this is what you've been looking for in a stereo receiver. If your subwoofer supports IN and OUT speaker wire connection. Then you can connect the left and right speaker wires from the stereo receiver into the left and right speaker IN on the subwoofer.

    Works fine but I was surprised to learn it does not receive AM stations but not an issue for me - I only listen to FM stations. I was able to plug in all my ((old components but still have not tried them all. So fare, so good.

    Satisfied, except I should have shopped a little more carefully. Two features it lacks: (1) no coaxial input for an external antenna, only a cheap connector for a single-wire antenna (supplied); and (2) the volume cannot be adjusted using the handheld remote control.
