Yes, it’s only two-channel. But that’s what makes it perfect for going back to one’s youth by listening to all the saved and carefully preserved stereo albums. Yes, I have all of my ORIGINAL records from when I was in high school and college. And I’m retired now, so that gives you an idea…Lol.
This unit has the ALL IMPORTANT phono input for playing records…and the grounding terminal to prevent hum and feedback. It also has four additional RCA phono input sets and a buetooth in put as well for connecting to mobile devices. FM only but who listens to talk radio anymore, anyway?
The stereo sound is quite good for those of us who aren’t audiphiles, and the volume steps per Sony’s standard goes from “1” to “50” I rarely have it set below 10 or higher than 35. Through my large Pioneer uprights…plenty loud.
The case is something of a Sony standard size, as it seems to be the same size as the Sony six-channel receiver it replaced. That unit was at least fifteen years old when I replaced it…there’s something to be said about continuity of size…you don’t have to rearrange your “stack” to accomodate a different size component.
I paired this with an Audio-Technica turntable and all is right in my audio world again. 🙂 😉 <3 <3 <3

I purchased a pair of Sony Core bookshelf speakers with a Sony STRDH190 stereo receiver originally for my home office. I have since relocated the system to my bedroom. For a budget receiver, it’s really nice. I’ll point out a few things I like about this receiver. One, it has built-in bluetooth. I can easily pair it with my iPhone and stream music. It also has plenty of inputs, including an 1/8″ PORTABLE IN mini jack on the front that allows you to make an easy wired connection to your phone or computer. That saves you from having to get a flashlight and reach behind the receiver to make the connection. It’s a nice convenience option. The remote is excellent too. I also appreciate the moderate size and weight of the receiver, which makes it easy to lift. My Sony Core bookshelf speakers sound great with this receiver. I’ve had this Sony receiver and Sony Core speakers for more than two years, and have had zero issues. Thumbs up!

Great receiver for the price. Have had it a few weeks. Paired it with Sony floor speakers and a Audio-Technical turntable to listen to my vinyl collection. Sounds good.

Just purchased the Sony STR DH190 stereo receiver to replace my old Yamaha that finally crapped out. Set up was a piece of cake. I have my turntable, cassette deck, CD player, and 8 track player all connected. I also have a sonos connect connected so I can access my amazon, apple, sirius, pandora and other digital music. I have the receiver connected to my original Polk Audio Monitor 10’s. I have that combined with a couple of Sonos Play 5’s and it sounds like I’m back at L’Amours Brooklyn in 1984 watching Raven and Exciter! Black Sabbath and Priest never sounded so good crankin’ through this receiver! Very happy with the purchase! Oh yeah and for $98 dollars it was a complete steal!

I was looking for an inexpensive receiver with a phono input for use in my basement listening room. I ordered this. It far exceeded my expectations. This is a very heavy unit indicating a robust power supply to feed the output stages. The phono input is very clean and sounds wonderful connected to my vintage Akai turntable with an Audio-Technica Elliptical stylus. I would rate it right up there with my Onkyo received/Rega turntable pair upstairs. I am also feeding it with a early 80’s Sony cassette deck and a Sony CD/DVD player. Everything works as expected. I didn’t buy it for the Bluetooth capability, but it was easy to pair with my phone and sounds good streaming as well. If you are looking for a reasonably priced receiver with a phono input, look no further.

I bought this to replace a remote controlled Sony receiver that finally died after 35 years. I chose this model because it included a phono input, which works very well. Setting up the tuner on this one is more difficult because it lacks a numeric keypad on the remote, so you just have to cycle up and down the frequencies and save the ones you want as presets. You can save up to 30 of them, I think, but only 3 can be directly accessed via buttons on the remote; the rest have to be reached by moving up and down your saved presets. It’s a bit of a nuisance, but I pretty much focus on only 3 stations anyway, so I don’t really mind. The unit comes with a rudimentary FM wire antenna but lacks a coax antenna input, and there is no AM tuner at all. It has a reasonable number of device inputs, including Bluetooth, but only 1 line output, and as far as I can tell, no Bluetooth output (but I could be wrong about that). It doesn’t handle video at all, so you have to choose a different model if you want something to control a home theater system, but that’s not what I wanted and this unit meets my needs fairly well overall. I used to rely on the AM tuner of my old unit to switch among radio stations for traffic reports before my morning commute, but fortunately I’m now retired and can mostly do without AM, though I wish it was still included. Sound quality seems okay to my not-very-critical ears. All in all I’d recommend this receiver despite its limitations.
