Customer Ratings & Reviews

got this as an open box and it still works as my PC and sim rig station. Years later it still works. BB, please give me my $400 gift card already. Onkyo and Denon still the best but i don't need that for what i'm using it for. The Onkyo is in the home theater. always buy Onkyo for massive project.

Sounds great and super duper easy to setup. One thing to note is that the RCA audio inputs are assigned to the HDMI ports for some reason. Just something to be aware of if you're like me where you have many video and audio sources like a turntable, CD player, along with an Apple TV or other Set Top Box. Other than that, it's a great entry-level receiver for those on a budget!

I bought this receiver so I would have a dedicated HDMI port for all of my devices. The improvement of sound and picture over my old receiver was a pleasant surprise. Very easy to set up and use.

Bought this to replace an aging Yamaha unit. It's pretty much plug and play! Since it's on standby and not truly "off" you can simply connect to the receiver from your Bluetooth to instantly wake it up! Volume is then controlled from your device, truly a hands free experience. I am using it as a 2.1 system for music so i can't speak to the surround sound (5.1) but i have to assume it sounds just as good as 2.1

I should start by saying that this is NOT meant for people who have difficult-to-drive speakers. If you have reasonably efficient speakers, however, this is for you. Sound is clean, set-up is simple, and it worked right out of the box. Now, for the most important thing in my opinion: It just WORKS. I plugged in a Chromecast for my streaming. I can cast to Spotify, and the receiver turns on, sets the input to the Chromecast, and starts playing. When I switch to the TV, the receiver automatically switches inputs (I have it set to optical input). There is no hassle, and my wife is able to operate as well.

This receiver is great. It pushes my 5 speakers and a sub. I like the functionality especially the 4K. The is a great buy.

Clean sound and easy set up. I’m using this with high end speakers in a home theater 5.2 set up. Great performing. Excellent price.

This Sony receiver is perfect for how I’m using it. I have several other Sony receivers but I wanted something a little smaller for my bedroom. I have front speakers, surround speakers, a center channel and a subwoofer attached. Everything sound great. I especially like the Bluetooth feature. I can listen to media on my iPhone. I would definitely recommend this receiver for anyone in a small space wanting a lot of sound.

I love this receiver! Great sound on my speakers (6-inch Somance pair), wattage to spare, multiple HDMI inputs + ARC for sending sound back from the TV, if desired (with an ARC-enabled TV). While I would love to see a Wi-Fi connection option, that would be an entirely different device - Bluetooth is adequate for a quick play from my phone and I plug it into my laptop or tablet for high def audio. I am looking forward to using the automatic tuning feature with the included microphone.

Excellent reciever. The set up was extremely easy and so much more accurate than with older more expensive models. It comes with a mic you set up in the optimal area of your room and gives a great speaker by speaker notice and perfect surround sound.

I got the Sony - 725W 5.2-Ch. Hi-Res 4K Ultra HD A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black to run my Polk T series 5.0 setup and man what a great combo! Setup was pretty straight forward and learning to get the best sound out of this receiver was pretty easy with a little research. The sound quality is the best I've ever had ring through my ears in a home setup. It even supports Dolby Atmos that we run through our PC which takes the surround experience to a whole new level! We were going to get a powered sub, but the sound is good enough we don't feel we even need to. If you're looking for an entry level receiver, this is the one you should get!

We replaced an older upscale 7.1 Onkyo with this 5.1. It has very good sound and powers a nice speaker system. It operates with a newer LG C2 well. It took just a little time to get things functioning. I like it and recommend it.

I wasnt planning on getting a new AV receiver for a while but i could not pass on the sale price and I have 30 yr old Sony equipment so I expected alot. As usual, they did not let me down. The set up was simple, the sound is amazing, and the connection to my TV/wireless devices is seamless.

Great sound quality and was easy to setup. Bluetooth enabled is a plus as well.

If you are looking between this and the comparable Denon, this is the one you want if you like it loud. If you want to listen to golf matches, get the Denon which has -slightly-, and I mean a fraction more clarity, but at a large reduction of the power per channel. Really a great start for My First Receiver, but I recommend spending a couple hundred more and getting the 7.2 with Atmos. If you are concerned with the reported Sony STR-DH590 auto-turn on disability, turn off CEC on your television. You are welcome.

Connected to our 65" LG TV - totally upgraded the audio quality of our system

Apart from Dolby Atmos, everything I needed and wanted in a new receiver the STR-DH590 has, including Bluetooth. The receiver is a replacement for my previous Sony STR-DH540 A/V Receiver which I replaced simply because it was unable to pass HDR and HDCP 2.2.2 encoded 4K Blu-ray and Streaming HDR contend. Like the my previous Sony receiver, the sounds is very clean and powerful with excellent Dynamic Range, and because I have two Subs, the 5.2 Channel is great to have. For the the features, the price paid made it an excellent value for me.

Excellent sound and price is great. Easy to set up

Highly recommend this home theater receiver! Awesome sound, and the best answer to Blu-Ray players that don't have traditional RCA or composite outputs for sound. Everything goes in to unit with HDMI cables, and one HDMI cable out to your HD TV. (So plan on maybe needing one extra cable). The remote controls everything, so for instance if you're watching SAT TV, and you want to switch to Blu-Ray, one button press switches you over. Get the Sony SA-C59 subwoofer with it, and you will love the sound quality!

What a great experience! The Geek Squad ( Duncan and Salvador ) worked as a team in setting up our new Sony Receiver. Wow! The sound is awesome with our surround sound. Both Duncan and Salvador were punctual and very thorough on helping us understand the unit. They truly wanted us to have the best experience with our new toy! They were very respectful, knowledgeable and kind to us. We will continue to do business with Best Buy when the customer service is top notch…. Like us was for us!
