Posted .Hi Mike, We're very grateful for this positive feedback! 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

Nice 2 ch receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the blue tooth capability this receiver has.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit is ok electronically, but be warned there is no line out, and the flimsy FM antenna that comes with the unit is the only antenna that will work. Sony's customer service entry on this says you can't hook up an external FM antenna to this receiver, which is awful to find out if you have weak signal coverage.

Posted .Hi ScottF, Thank you for the feedback on your experience with your STRDH190 receiver. We appreciate your feedback about the supplied FM antenna and the lack of line out.

Good it works well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good. I like it very much. I thought the price was good.
I would recommend this to a friendNot great for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally had purchased this and ended up returning it within a week. My unit may have been faulty though. Seems like Sony cheaped out with the power supply on these and reviews online mention it being a common failure point. When turning my unit on, it would hum very audibly (louder than my gaming pc at idle running Cooler Master SickleFlow 120s), and you would also feel the vibration when touching the unit. The volume control knob was quite difficult to turn, I wasn't expecting the feel of a nice Denon unit, but I expect it to not have a significant amount of resistance, the input control knob wasn't too much different. Despite this, my unit didn't appear damaged. It gets worse though, I had bought this to replace a Legrand amplifier which was faulty and had sound bleeding between the channels (causing distortion). Even with that issue, my speakers sounded worse with the Sony, just horribly muddy, no highs or lows, just mids; they're not fancy either, just 8ohm 40w ones (the Parts Express Overnight Sensations DIY kit). There's a similarly priced Yamaha that should be better, though I went for an Onkyo TX-SR393 instead and have been extremely happy with it, all issues I had with this Sony are non-existent with that, even providing an accurate frequency response.

Posted .Hi vince, We regret to hear about the issues you had with this receiver and it had to be returned. This is usually not the case for our stereo receiver nor the experience we want you to have.

Also, the knobs should move freely and not be overly tight.
If all you hear from the speakers is static or distorted sound, there could be an incorrect setting or there may be a problem with the speakers. Following the steps on the link below should resolve the issue.
