Customers have good things to say about the sound quality, Bluetooth connectivity, and ease of use of the STRDH190 stereo receiver. Many appreciate its affordable price and the inclusion of a phono input for turntables. While some users mentioned the bass could be improved, and the volume control could be more refined, the overall feedback is overwhelmingly positive. The receiver's compact size and straightforward setup are also frequently praised.

    Picked up this receiver to use with an existing in wall speaker system for my pool area. The main function I wanted was a good BlueTooth so I could stream music directly from my phone while hanging outside. The receiver picks up great from about 25-30 ft with no drops in coverage (also inside a cabinet). Setup took less than ten minutes out of the box.

      Hi JChad, thank you for picking this up! We're glad you appreciate the Bluetooth range and ease of setup 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! Thank you for choosing Sony! -Sam Sony_US

    Needed an upgrade from an old non bluetooth. Happy I bought it at a good price. Connects to my cell phone easily with a touch of the button on remote. I have it hooked up to a powered subwoofer to watch movies.

    Purchased to replace an old Technics stereo amplifier. Way more versatility and updates the technology of my component set. Great reception on the tuner, but it only receives FM. Handles my four speakers well and has adequate power for my listening use. In addition to supporting my tape deck, turn table, and cd player, it has blue tooth capability that allow me to play music apps from my phone on my speakers.

    This receiver is pretty cool. The bluetooth works great..playing music off my phone. My 6 cd changer running from it is awesome. My old speakers(studio monitors) sound great and loud. Room for improvement thing (why 4 stars) is am/fm antenna could be upgraded to bring in better station strengths. But i did read that on reviews so/or/and not big deal to me. Sale price was a final decision to buy. Good quality. Very satisfied.

    After 35 years, my old receiver would no longer turn on. This is a good replacement 2- channel receiver. It does everything that my old receiver did, plus it has Bluetooth. I was able to connect my family room TV's sound to the receiver. I also have a turntable and blu-ray / CD player connected, As it is 2-channel, it is not for those who want home theater with multiple sets of speakers and a subwoofer.

    Upgrading from an old TEAC receiver from the 80’s that didn’t have a phono input and was scratched and had other issues. This Sony receiver was exactly what I needed. It is the perfect modern receiver with a phono input (because I’m a vinyl collector) and Bluetooth. The receiver also has a gain boost for the phono input. This gives the turntable more gain. Really nice feature. This is the perfect 2.0 receiver for Bluetooth and vinyl.

    This is an outstanding stereo receiver that includes Bluetooth for streaming and a phono amp. I got it on sale but even at the list price of $150 it is a bargain. My last Sony receiver lasted over 20 years. My only complaint is the speaker connections are very tiny spring loaded connectors. It was very hard to connect my speakers and I had to get separate connectors
