QuestionI have to turn the volume up pass 50 to start to get sound. I have the Sony speakers for it 5' 3-way bookshelf speakers. also the Sony subwoofer
Asked 5 years ago by John.
- Answer You should get sound at level 1 initially from the center speaker and subwoofer. The other speakers enhance with the surround sounds which you will need to turn volume up higher to experience the full affect. Make sure you have the speaker wires connected (small pull to see if they don’t move) and use an optical cable to connect from stereo to the TV.

Power reset the unit, simply unplug the unit and wait 1-2 minutes then plug the device back in and power on. We also recommend connecting the AV receiver directly to wall outlet. If the unit still has no power, contact our chat support for further assistance. https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact Regards, David

QuestionHi I am planning to buy this but I have following questions: 1. Can I control volume of each speaker (all 7.1 separately) when connected? 2. Can I connect a passive subwoofer to make it work or the subwoofer needs to be active? Please let me know.
Asked 5 years ago by Santosh.
- Answer Yes, you can control each of 7.1 separately. I used the auto-calibrate then bumped up the center channel. I think it only works with active sub, but you can have two.

QuestionWe have an old HCD-C700 DVD/CD/Radio model with 5 wired speakers and subwoofer attached. Want to replace with something simpler that I can simply plug existing speakers into. No need for video player or radio. What are my options?
Asked 5 years ago by JCG.
- Answer The STR-DH790 should work. I used to have a Sony HT-7000DH home theater system. I then upgraded to an STR-DH920, and now the DH790. I'm still using the (4) wired speakers and (1) subwoofer from the the HT-7000DH.

QuestionI would like to add elevation speakers to my set up. Already have surround speakers as well as rear speakers. Can you hook up elevation speakers to this receiver along with those other speakers?
Asked 5 years ago by Kfloamy.
- Answer Hi Kfloamy, Unfortunately, the maximum speaker system that you can do with the STRDH790 is 7.1 so that's center speaker, front left, front right, a subwoofer, surround left, surround right, surround back left, and surround back right. Also, you can only connect speakers with impedance of 6 ohms to 16 ohms. What we recommend is to adjust the speaker size to small or large depending on the source that you're playing. Check the link below for details. https://helpguide.sony.net/ha/strdh79/v1/en/contents/TP0001605064.html Happy to help, David

Here are the benefits and improvements for the STRDH790 latest firmware update: Adds support for eARC feature Notes: eARC is a new HDMI 2.1 standardized function which adds support for the latest audio formats, in addition to audio formats supported by the existing Audio Return Channel (ARC) function.

QuestionHello, Is this receiver compatible with a Samsung Soundbar and Woofer?
Asked 5 years ago by sanab.
- Answer Hi Sanab, Unfortunately, you cannot add a soundbar to an AV receiver. A soundbar is an alternative to an AV receiver and not something you use in conjunction with an AV receiver. Please refer this link to check what kind of speakers you can connect to your AV receiver: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/audio-components-receivers-amplifiers/str-dh790/articles/00205291. However you may connect 2 subwoofer to the STRDH790 Receiver. I hope this helps. Thanks! - Kris
