Best Bang for the buck
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looked around at other stereo receivers that have Bluetooth and the Sony was the best bang for the buck. I have it installed in my garage with 2 Bose bookshelf speakers hooked up to it. Sound is great and is very user friendly. Buy with confidence.

Home Theater Value
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fit my need for home theater sound, thru blue tooth. Didn’t like having to connect to tv screen for setup, since I am using a projector. Luckily had small tv for setup.

preliminary review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a preliminary review, based only on very good apparent value and on good service through the delivery. I have been unable to install the unit yet. The story is as follows. The electrical power in my house is messed up, with lights flickering, dimming, surging power to fans, etc. Due to this problem, I lost an excellent Onkyo receiver, even behind a surge strip (which also burned up), hence this purchase. However, the electrician I first hired is stumped, and I am still trying to get another one out here. I won't hook up the new unit until I get an all-clear on clean power. My quantitative evaluations should be read with this info in mind.

Sony STR-DH190
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to replace a higher priced receiver & was looking for one that had a phono input. I purchased the sony STR-DH190. The sound quality is very close to what i had with the higher priced unit. I feel for the price & features this model is very good.

Sony Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just what we needed. Very switchable output for every input, including a discrete phono; and plenty of power for my 4ohm speakers. Much easier to hook up and use than the 1080 it replaced since I don't really need the video functions in this location.

Great price
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a good receiver for the price. I have it paired with two outdoor speakers. The Bluetooth range is great! The range exceeded my expectations. The one thing I don’t like is that when connected to Bluetooth, you can turn your device (phone, tablet) all the way up but the receiver caps at 70-75%. You can have the receiver go higher but you have to do it by turning the knob or using the remote. It’s a little annoying since I am mostly in my yard using my phone. When paired with great speakers, this unit is great!

Posted .Hi Matt, You've made an excellent choice! Good to hear it paired perfectly with your outdoor speakers, and you like the great Bluetooth range of your Sony STRDH190. We also appreciate your feedback about the volume adjustment when connected to Bluetooth. I would suggest turning up the volume on the receiver itself i you don't want to switch between turning up the volume on your Bluetooth device and the supplied remote control.

recommended for 2 channel systems
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent 2 channel receiver - has phono input along with blue tooth! The audio quality is good, and plenty of power to drive bookshelf or even larger floor speakers. Easy to set up, program stations, connect devices thru the blue tooth. There are a few misses however. There is no dedicated subwoofer output ; the function buttons on the face are tiny and not illuminated; the FM antenna has a small 2 pin connector - and no way to connect a better antenna. But still, for the price, an excellent choice for a "blue tooth system", playing your vinyl, or a basic straight forward 2 channel sound system.

Good sounding receiver
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Sony receiver is great with lots of inputs for my various components including input jacks for my turntable. Also can stream music through Bluetooth. My only complaint is the fm reception is not nearly as good as my 30 year old Teac receiver had been and the Sony lacks an am tuner.
