Customer Ratings & Reviews

Intuitive and easy to set up. Bluetooth makes it compatible with a number of devices. Powers four sets of speakers (8) with base and treble adjustments. A lot for the $!

I'm 55 so have had many an audio receiver over the years. Since most of the music I listen to is from my PC or iPad, I've been considering an audio receiver with bluetooth and this one far exceeds my expectation. The bluetooth pairs up flawlessly and I love the ability to adjust bass and treble from the remote. I originally bought this on sale for our enclosed patio for $99 and loved it so much I bought another for my computer room. May even end up ditching our old Kenwood receiver in our livingroom for another one of these. The Sony STRDH190 simply can't be beat for price, ease of use, and audio quality. FM receiption isn't the best but not a dealbreaker for me since I don't isten to radio anymore.

I paired this receiver up with my Fluance turntable and albums have never sounded better.

What I’d hoped to get from this purchase is what I got - a $150 (sale price) receiver that enables my small Polk speakers to fill my living room with clear, clean music from my phone’s Bluetooth connection, my CD player, and my turntable. It has additional RCA connections if I can ever find room for the tape deck. The FM receiver works well for local stations, even with the included 10 cent wire “antenna.” It doesn’t have AM capability, but the Orioles games are simulcast on an FM sister station, so no worries there :) Just perfect for my needs! Note on my sub-ratings - only had it for a week, so I wanted to reserve judgement on Quality, and haven’t tried programming FM presets yet, so I wanted to wait to rate Ease of Use. But, Best Buy’s system forced me to pick a rating for those categories if I wanted to rate the receiver on Value. Best Buy might want to revise that protocol.

love it great sound quality. fantastic price for what you get. plenty of power for me

I always trust Sony with my audio needs. Easy setup with the rest of my gear.

This has amazing sound quality for my vinyl record player

I got this receiver to use with an outdoor sound system. I wanted something simple and not break the bank . Hooked up Klipsch outdoor speakers , covered it in plexiglass to give it some protection from the elements here in the summer months , it’s also under a overhang , so not directly exposed to sun and rain. Bluetooth is seem less. Works perfectly with Alexa dot and my phone, preset radio stations, etc and puts out excellent sound to my outdoor speakers! This was a good purchase and perfect for my needs for a kickass stereo system in my backyard oasis!

Receiver in my garage finally bit the dust so I bought this as replacement and glad I did. Good sound, plenty of power, great remote, bluetooth, and all this at a very affordable price.

Very nice unit, at a good price. The stereo sound is real good and clear, the amplifier inputs work well. However, I would like the name of a good pre-amp that works well with this one and has RCA outputs to go in to the Sony Amplifier. I like how you can label the different inputs for whatever they are. The remote is a real plus and makes the operation so much more fluid and simple. Maybe someday I will use the Bluetooth app that's built in, but I don't like wireless, so that's unlikely.

I've really found this device useful and of good quality. I'm sure it's not even close to audiophile worthy, but it really made my turntable sound better than the dinky preamp I had. I like that it also has easy to use bluetooth and radio capabilities.

Plenty of features for me! Bought it to replace my '91 STR-AV270x. Slightly disappointed that there isn't bass and treble knobs. I bought it open box for $155

This was to replace my Teac AG 360 which after 25 years started to generate a humming sound. The Sony has the same dimensions so it fits perfectly on the shelf. It sounds great on all modes. I haven't tried the phono mode however. I think they should advertise as a 90 watts per channel with 0.09 % THD instead of 100 Watts per channel with 1 % THD. People who have been around stereo receivers would probably be more inclined to try this one if the did. 1 % is way over what most manufacturers state in their specs. I never need more than about 10 watts myself.

I bought this receiver to primarily power my two Polk outdoor speakers. It has the ability to use speakers on either an A or B channel. It provides great power for the speakers I paired it with. The Bluetooth capability is pretty good too. I have it inside the house, next to a window, and Our Bluetooth devices can reach the receiver pretty well for a good 50-60 ft. The manual speaks to a 98 ft reach, but that would be direct line of sight with no walls or windows. Overall, great receiver for the price.

Great system and works great with Bluetooth. Easy to understand and convenient. Thank you

If you need a 2channel stereo this is it. Got for tv and music on patio. Sound is great. Easy setup. Low price. Grab it before their all gone. Love it

When my vintage receiver failed I was discouraged at the length of time for repair. I decided to purchase a new unit. After considerable research I continued to see the Sony 2 channel on reviewers best pick list. I have very pleased with my purchase, the sound is great and the ease of hookup makes it any easy setup. It sound better than much more expensive receivers and looks classy as well. Great Sony piece.

Have had this for a few months. It's in a medium to large sized interior room in my home. Sound quality is good. I love that this is bluetooth capable and comes with a remote. For the price point, I think I got everything I was looking for and then some. I'm very pleased with my decision to buy this. Also considered the equivalent Yamaha brand, similar features. I feel good about going with the Sony.

Very easy set up and sounds great. the Bluetooth features were just what we wanted.

I purchased this receiver to replace a mid 90's unit. The difference is amazing! Bluetooth is a game changer, and having an aux cord port standard is nice too. The speakers I'm using connected flawlessly and are powered more than sufficiently! Also, the phono provisions are more than adequate, the ground works well, and my player has no him whatsoever. This receiver makes my music sound better in every way I can possibly play music through it. Would buy again.
