Sony has been a leader in home and personal audio for decades. I’ve been listening on Sony products for most of my life (I even owned a bright yellow Sony Sport Walkman years ago). My taste in music has changed (slightly) but Sony quality has not. However, the range of Sony audio products is huge; you may have trouble deciding which one to get for your home next!. Well, since September is Home Theatre Month at Best Buy, we think it’s a great time to give Canadians a chance to win some of the fantastic Sony audio products that may be on their wish-lists. We have two contests offering Sony Audio prizes in progress this month. In this contest, I have one combination prize of a Sony receiver and turntable. See below for the link to our other contests at Best Buy.

Which audio component is next on your wish-list

In life we all have to make choices. Some choices are harder than others. For example, you may have a hard time deciding which of the recent viral shark songs you like best: Baby Shark or Reggae Shark (I’m leaning toward Baby Shark myself; I can’t help but smile when I watch it!).

 

Think for a second about your home audio system and the components that it’s lacking. Which new audio component is first on your list? You may have a stack of records that you can’t play, so a turntable may be next. Alternatively, you may realize that a turntable will be useless without a great receiver and amplifier to carry the signal from the turntable to your speakers. Just like trying to decide which of the above videos you like best, it’s a dilemma!

Which Sony audio component do you need in your home

In his review of this receiver and turntable, Brad Moon discusses that someone just getting into vinyl or wanting to get an entry level player for his old LPs would be well served by the Sony PS-LX300USB turntable. It’s easy to setup and use, and has the added benefit of USB connectivity so you can connect it to a PC and convert your vinyl recordings to MP3. He also pointed out that pairing this turntable withĀ Sonyā€™s STR-DH190 receiverĀ is a solid choice. This receiver comes with Bluetooth support so you can stream music from your phone through the receiver.

Now, if you had to choose, which one would you prefer to get first for your home: the turntable or the receiver. One lucky person will not have to worryā€”the person who wins this contest will get both!

HOW TO ENTER

Entering this contest is easy, but you can only enter once. In a comment below this article, tell us which you would prefer for your home: the Sony turntable or the Sony receiver and why. If you want, you can also weigh in on the other tough choice discussed above: Reggae Shark or Baby Shark.

WHAT YOU CAN WIN

At the end of the contest we will select one winner to receive both Sony audio components: theĀ Sony PS-LX300USB turntableĀ and the SonyĀ STR-DH190 receiver.

This contest will run from Sept 12th until Sept 25th.

Remember you can only enter once. However, you can tell your friends and family about this awesome contest. You could even strike a deal saying, “let’s split the prize and whoever wins gets first choice.” At the very least you can introduce them to those two shark videos above!

  1. Although I would love both components I think I could use the receiver more as I have two turntables from the 70s. A Dual and a Connaisuir. Not sure if I spelled the latter correctly. Really need an amp lol.

  2. I would really enjoy the Sony Receiver. I’ve got a vintage turntable which I love but my receiver is losing a channel every so often and can be disappointing. Would love to hook it up to a new receiver and compare the sound!
    Thanks!

  3. The timing of this contest could not be better. My turntable bit the dust about 2 weeks ago and I have been shopping around for a new one. I would LOVE to win this. I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Thanks for the contest.

  4. i’d be very happy if i won the Stereo Receiver, it would be a great addition to my audio system. Good luck everyone! šŸ™‚

  5. I would choose the Sony turntable as I don’t have one and it would be wonderful to have to listen to old and new vinyl.

  6. I would love the Sony turntable. I have vinyls (which my daughter is slowly taking because I have nowhere to play them lol) so it would be great!

  7. I’d love to say the Sony turntable but I really do need the Sony receiver more as my current set up is around 30 years old and anew receiver would make a great start to updating things.

  8. Both products are great. I am especially fond of some features on the new Sony receiver. Notably a really good “phono input”, which tells me that this unit is using discrete circuitry, which sounds better, as opposed to chips or Integrated circuits. Also the receiver has what seems to be a tape input/output (input 4) which will allow me to integrate something like a Sonos Connect, for wireless audio and internet radio..,or a tape deck šŸ˜‰ . A feature I haven’t seen in a long time and hope to see more often in today’s receivers.

  9. The turntable would be my choice as our current turntable just died. It had a good life but we have pulled the plug and we must start looking for a replacement before the dust settles on our vinyls.

    • I meant to say I would love to win the receiver as the Sony Mini-hifi I bought back in college, over 30 years ago, is on its last legs. Both cassette players don’t work and the cd player is not reading anymore. I got my money’s worth though.

  10. The turntable would be amazing! I had one that unfortunately no longer works and my records are awaiting their next play! Thank you for the chance.

  11. I would like the receiver because it is Bluetooth compatible to be able to stream music through the receiver. My choice is Reggae Shark because I love listening to reggae.

  12. I would like the receiver because it is Bluetooth compatible to be able to stream music through the receiver. My choice is Reggae Shark because I love listening to reggae.

  13. I would like the receiver because it is Bluetooth compatible to be able to stream music through the receiver. My choice is Reggae Shark because I love listening to reggae.

  14. I would like the receiver because it is Bluetooth compatible to be able to stream music through the receiver. Reggae Shark is my choice because I love reggae music.

  15. I would prefer the Turntable. I have records from the 70’s and I so want to play them again. Bring on the Turntable.
