    Great price and sound quality. This Sony receiver is doing more than the job delivery sound to my four Sonos speakers. This receiver has HDMI ports to be connected to a TV or DVD player. Get your Sony device now!

      Hi Gamer2totheRescue, We're glad to hear you feel that the STRDH190 is worth its price. And, good to know you like the sound quality and it works perfectly with your speakers. 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! -Sam Sony_US

    Been using it for a month or so and so far so good. The sound is good, clear. Not a ton of power but enough to sound good. No subwoofer output but it has a phono output which I was looking for for my record player. Overall satisfied with it.

    Overall, I am pleased with the unit. Works well and sounds good. The price was a fair one. My only complaint was in the control design. It's awkward to switch between the functions, and the display is small and not very bright.

    Just using it for a couple of outside speakers that are in the front yard. So we do not crank up the volume all the way. So we use it for easy listening. Good receiver for the price. Good for what we use it for.

    Bought this to replace an older receiver at our dock house. Has worked out great with the A/B pair speaker setup as we need to crank the volume up in the open environment. Kids like the Bluetooth feature also everyone can share their music.
