    Everything works as expected. Being used with 2 bose bookshelf speakers and a kilipsh 12" sub which replaced a Razer Leviathan soundbar and subwoofer. Sound quality is much better than before.

    Good features for an inexpensive receiver. I like to listen to local FM radio. Unfortunately, the this receiver’s tuner reception is horrible. Must be where they elected to take cost out of it. And there is no AM. I expected better from Sony!

    After turning on you have to select which input you want to listen to instead of it just staying where you left it prior to turning the unit off. It does the trick but it’s a little clunky to use. The price is right.

      Hi Remote,

      Thank you for telling us about your experience with your STR-DH590. Your feedback is extremely important to us and is very much appreciated. This STRDH590 delivers up to 145 watts at 6 ohms, 1 kHz, 0.9 percent THD, 1 channel driven when on surround mode and 105 W + 105 W output power when on stereo mode. This model also brings all your devices together with Bluetooth connectivity, however, it doesn't have a capability to output sound to Bluetooth speaker. The Bluetooth feature of this unit is actually designed to receive audio from a WALKMAN, smartphone or tablet that has a BLUETOOTH function and listen to the received audio content via this receiver.

      If you cannot make a Bluetooth connection or sound skips on the unit, please see page 44 on the instruction manuals link below to help resolve this issue.

    Whether it is the receiver or the speakers, I am not getting good quality sound. I cannot adjust the treble or base. It is what it is.

      Hi EdfromBronx,

      We do apologize for the inconvenience. You can adjust the bass/treble level of the front speakers. Select [Sound Effect] from the home menu. Select [Bass] or [Treble]. Press up/down to adjust the level, and then press middle button.
