    I don't do anything fancy with receivers and I won't pass HDMI through one unless it's something like a Nintendo Switch, but if you're just needing an affordable TV receiver to power your big speakers, this works excellently and is fairly seamless.

    Awesome. Pairs very well with my Sony bookshelf speakers and 8" powered sub. Setup was super easy, sound is clean and plenty of power for my speakers. I don't use surround but the setup looks very simply and intuitive. If you just need a basic receiver with some digital inputs, this is perfect.

    The setup was very easy and is a great size, super compact. Took up less space than the previous receiver. Power output sounds good and able to get up and running very smoothly. The only draw back is that the universal remote does not react to all commands have to sometimes reenter command to get the receiver to switch to the correct input.

      Hi Marcos108, Thank you for purchasing the Sony STRDH590 receiver. We're glad to hear you like the ease of set up, compact design, and powerful sound of the unit. We appreciate your feedback about using a universal remote control. We encourage you to use the supplied remote since we cannot guarantee the universal remote's full operation. Hope this helps! -Sam Sony_US

    Very solid player, if it is a good 4K content, and you have good TV, this makes a huge difference. This player, by all accounts is an entry level unit, but it really does the job. I really like how the dolby atmos/vision auto engage, when I see that pop up on my screen. Literally get your popcorn ready, your in for a visual treat!!

    Needed a replacement receiver for home theater

    When our receiver of 12+ years gave up the ghost we considered switching to a sound bar. When talking to the Best Buy agent, he inquired if the system's speakers still worked, and suggested we consider replacing the receiver with one at the same price as the sound bar. So glad we did. Now we still have the surround sound quality that we've enjoyed.

    I started off with the with the 1080p version of this receiver and when it was time to upgrade tv's to 4k I went with the same product and just like the 1080p version it is truly a great receiver for the money. Great sound not just for movies but gaming as well.

    The receiver performs very good and was fairly easy to hook up. There were some issues such as turning off automatically at a low volume. That was resolved in settings, but I had to figure it out on my own. Also, a minor inconvenience in that when turned on, the menu screen pops up instead of defaulting to the last input used. Easily removed by pushing the button of the device needed.

    We had an older home theater receiver that no longer worked so we were looking for an inexpensive yet quality product. This one fit the bill and we were able to order it online and pick it up in-store which was a huge benefit!

    So far so good. For the price point, it's hard to find anything better. Just be aware that besides the two main speaker outputs, the other outputs only take bare wire. Also make sure it has enough HDMI inputs for your purposes. Sound quality is satisfactory considering the price again.
