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.

    The unit works excellently. Balancing the channels was a minor issue. Instructions can be improved.

      Hi RobH, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your Sony STRDH190 receiver! We're glad you like the FM radio for garage listening. To improve the FM reception using the supplied antenna, please follow these steps.

      Adjust the position of the supplied FM wire antenna (aerial) to a place where the reception condition is good.
      Place the antenna near a window.
      Position the antenna as horizontally as possible.

      Hope this helps!

    Great stereo, works flawlessly. Sound quality is great. I'm an audiophile. Just with it at a flat EQ, it has such high fidelity sound with good bass. It satisfies me very much. I definitely recommend this receiver.

      Hi Quent, While we're glad you like the ease of setup, we regret to hear that the front panel display is not working. To isolate this issue, please try to press DIMMER to adjust the front panel display brightness. If it doesn't work, please perform a factory reset.
      Press (power) to turn off
      the receiver. Then press and hold (power) for 5 seconds.
      “CLEARING” appears on the display panel during initialization.

      And if the suggested troubleshooting steps didn't resolve the issue. Please contact our product support team via phone call or chat through this link for further assistance: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/service?language=en_US.
