    If you are in the market for an AV receiver and don't need or want Atmos, then this is the one for you. I have it hooked up to an older Samsung tv without ARC & do not get the annoying home screen pop up that some poeple complain about. Enough power to handle my Sony speakers + 2 10" Polk subs. Very happy with this!

    Does not power itself off

    This was purchased as a replacement A/V receiver for my Pioneer Home Theater in a box 5.1 system. I've since paired it with the Sony SA-CS9 active subwoofer which works well. This system is used with a Epson projector for a full movie room effect. Pros: I do believe that there were visual improvements over my 10 year old Pioneer. It is relatively easy to setup. Negatives: There is no connection for a passive subwoofer, so I had to purchase a new active subwoofer to use with this receiver. That was frustrating to discover that there is only RCA style jacks for the sub. I used to be able to allow my PS4 to enter rest mode. Once that happens, the Pioneer subwoofer would completely turn off and eventually my Projector would see that there was no signal and would power itself down as well. With this receiver, it seems that there is always a signal being sent, so my projector will run all day if I do not turn it off myself. This is annoying. I've looked into the standby features, but cannot find out how to make the receiver turn itself off. The only time it works is if I use the sleep function.

      Hi Kyle,

      Thank you for the feedback and we really appreciate the time you took to share so many details about your experience with the STRDH590. The only option you have is you can automatically turn off the receiver and any device connected to the HDMI jack when you turn off the TV. This operation is only available using the display panel on the front of the receiver. Check page 42 from this link for details.

    We replaced a 20 plus year old unit (pre HDMI) with this one. Installation was simple and our existing built in speakers sound great! We probably should have done this when we bought our tv.
