    Sony Amp - Great Deal

    Best Bluetooth amplifier for under $200. Bass is not as strong as more powerful amps, but overall delivers an incredible sound for the price.

      Hi Music1, Fantastic! We're glad to hear you feel that the overall quality and great sound of your STRDH190 receiver is worth its price. 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 Sony_US

    2 channel Stereo is so last century. But who needs more than 2. This unit has Bluetooth. I never thought I would use it. I was wrong. It works like a charm

      Hi Sab57, While we're glad you had such an amazing customer service experience, we regret that the unit had to be returned. And if you're looking for an AV receiver that supports more features than the STRDH190, we recommend checking out the STRDH590, STRDH790, or STRDN1080. For more information, you can visit our website at electronics.sony.com. I hope you consider our Sony products in the future. Thank you for sharing your feedback. -Sam Sony_US

    Everything about this purchase was excellent! It did however cause me to call upon a little-used practice called "If all else fails, read the instructions" to determine how to turn if off completely. But the manual was fully explanatory (but perhaps a little more technical than for someone like me with 45 years of electronics experience. Although, not all of my knowledge is current). It works exceptionally well for my application of many inputs (selectable) with high-quality outputs to speakers or even to another device's inputs. Great quality, good service from the store. All in all - Excellent!
