    Great Starter Unit

    My Onkyo receiver went out this summer (2022). I was waiting for Black Friday to replace. The Onkyo WAS a higher end unit, so the comparison isn't as fair. Although I did purchase it on Black Friday in 2015 (so it's 7 years older). The other unit was so far advanced compared to this new unit, that I ended up getting the Onkyo fixed and returned this. I suppose when I'm ready to replace again, I'll have to bite the bullet and spend closer to $1K to get an equivalent to what I have.

    My main concern for this was the 4K passthrough. Which I'm happy to say is excellent! My previous device promised that but it was more of an upgrade than passthrough. Plenty if options for speaker sound fine tuning.

    Fantastic receiver, if for no other reason than it replaced my aging Sony received that's probably close to 15+ years old. While I was able to get all the glorious 4K HDR that I wanted, I could not for the life of me get the ARC channel to work with my Series 4 Roku. I tried every setting that made sense between the TV and the receiver but could not get it to even see it as a CEC device on the network - though it did see a device connected to it, so I knew that it wasn't a cable issue in that regard. After a week of fumbling with settings, I returned it and am now just using a Yamaha soundbar...with ARC working crystal clear.

      Hi SpencerEntertainment, Thank you for purchasing the STRDH590. While we're glad to hear you appreciate the 4K HDR feature of the unit, we regret to know you're having an HDMI related issues with the receiver and it had to be returned. This is usually not the case for our AV receivers nor the experience we want you to have.

      For HDMI-related issues, we recommend following the troubeshooting steps on the link below:

    Pretty much as advertised. Sends around 145 watts per channel, which work prefect for my larger floor speakers. Works well with my sony TV although Sony intentionally makes their TV's incompatible with receivers.
