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.

    This is great for what I am using it for. Sound good through my nearly 60 year old speakers. The Blu Tooth connects well and sound good as well. Also good for a record player.

      HI Captainkirk, Thank you for the 5-star rating! We're very happy to hear it works great with your record player. Good to know also that you like the amazing sound quality and features 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! Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US

    This is the second receiver I've bought like this. We decided to buy the same one for the basement. I've started collecting CDs since you can now find them for next to nothing at thrift stores. I found a 6-CD player and some great speakers secondhand, and this receiver was very easy to connect to the older equipment.

    This is a great receiver, especially for the price and if you only need 2 channels for the stereo. The power and sound is sufficient. I do have a complaint about it though. When the bluetooth is connected to your phone, it will let you turn the volume down, but you it won't let you turn it all the way up via phone. You can only turn it up about halfway. It's almost a deal breaker but for the price and no other similar options available this one works fine.
