Sony STR-DH190 Stereo Receiver 100WPC, Phono, Bluetooth
The Sony STR-DH190 is a modern 2-channel stereo receiver offering 100 watts per channel, a built-in phono stage for turntables, Bluetooth wireless streaming, and a clean, compact design that makes it an ideal hub for a vinyl-focused or mixed-source stereo system.
Positioned as Sony’s entry point into dedicated stereo receivers, the STR-DH190 punches well above its price class by combining a capable phono preamp, genuine 100WPC output, and Bluetooth connectivity in a single compact chassis. The built-in MM phono input accepts any standard moving magnet turntable directly, with a phono volume offset function that aligns the phono input level with other sources for seamless switching. Bluetooth Standby mode allows the receiver to be woken from standby directly from a paired smartphone or tablet, adding a layer of smart convenience that suits modern listening habits.
Sonically, the STR-DH190 benefits from Sony’s reinforced chassis and beam construction design, which reduces vibration transmitted from speaker output for a cleaner, more focused sound. A large-capacity power transformer is optimized for low interference, and the phono amplifier is physically positioned to minimize magnetic field interference from the transformer — small but meaningful engineering decisions that reflect Sony’s attention to detail even in an entry-level product. With 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms (20–20,000 Hz, 0.09% THD), this receiver drives a wide range of bookshelf and floorstanding speakers with authority and ease.
Inputs include four analog RCA line-level inputs, one dedicated phono input, and a 3.5mm auxiliary input for portable devices, alongside the Bluetooth receiver. A headphone output on the front panel allows private listening without disturbing others. Speaker A/B switching supports two pairs of speakers, making it easy to run a secondary room or switch between speaker sets. This unit is in excellent cosmetic condition showing only the most minimal signs of careful use, has been fully tested and confirmed working, and comes with the original Sony remote control.

Sony began in Tokyo in 1946, founded by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita, and it helped bring the world the Walkman and the compact disc. We carry Sony stereo and AV receivers, CD players, cassette decks, amplifiers and speakers. We've had more than 220 Sony listings so far, covering more than 185 different models. Every used Sony here is inspected, tested and serviced as required, then photographed in-house and covered by our Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty and Perpetual Trade-Back Program. Don't see the model you want? Tell us on First Dibs and we'll email you when one arrives.
Sony models we've sold more than once include the TC-K61 cassette deck, the CDP-CE305 and CDP-C335 CD players, the STR-DA5700ES AV receiver and the STR-4800SD stereo receiver.
The Sony story, 1946 to today
Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita founded Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo ("Totsuko") in Tokyo in 1946, growing out of a radio repair business Ibuka had started the year before. The company was renamed Sony in 1958.
Tape and transistors. The G-model tape recorder of 1950 is described as Japan's first, and the TR-55 transistor radio of 1955 was the first Sony-branded product.
ES. Sony describes the TA-1120 integrated amplifier of 1965 as the first all-silicon-transistor stereo amplifier and dates its ES ("Elevated Standard") line from it.
Walkman and CD. The Walkman went on sale in Japan in July 1979. Sony worked with Philips on the compact disc, and Sony's CDP-101 was among the first CD players on sale in Japan in October 1982. Sony still makes ES AV receivers.
Which Sony is which?
STR receivers: stereo receivers from the late 1960s on, such as the STR-6120, and later AV receivers, including ES models.
TA amplifiers and ES separates: from the TA-1120 to the TA-E86 preamplifier and TA-N86 power amplifier (1978).
CDP CD players: from the CDP-101 (1982) and CDP-701ES (1983) to changers such as the CDP-CE305 and CDP-C335 we sell often.
TC tape decks: reel-to-reel recorders until 1985, and cassette decks such as the TC-K61 and the three-head TC-K777ES.
SS speakers: such as the SS-G7 floorstanders of 1978.
Buying used Sony: what to check
CD players. Open and close the drawer several times; hesitation can be an early sign of trouble. Laser pickups wear, skipping is a symptom, and tray belts age.
Cassette decks. Belts dry out and cause slipping or uneven playback, and worn heads dull the sound. Run fast-forward and rewind, and check Dolby.
Amplifiers and receivers. Noisy switches and dirty relay contacts cause many faults, and bias settings drift with age. On tuners, look for blown bulbs and broken dial cords.
Everything we list is inspected, tested and serviced as required here, and comes with our warranty.
