      Hi GarydeanR,

      We're sorry you've been running into difficulty. With regards to programming third-party remote controls to operate your Sony Home audio system, manufacturers may assign different code numbers in their universal remote controls to identify the Infrared (IR) signal of a Sony product. Thus, the code number used for operating a Sony product in one remote control may be different from that used by another.

      If you need help with a non-Sony remote, please contact that remote's manufacturer.

      Despite your concerns, we're truly happy that you like most of the features of your STR-DH590 AV receiver. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US

      Hi Loudmusic,

      Thanks for the feedback. Double-check if the speaker pattern is correct. Also, the sound will depend on the source that you're playing. Try to test tone to isolate the issue. Check the link on how to.

    This is my first new receiver and, while it sounds fine with some Polk speakers hooked up to it, its menus are very basic and cheap-looking and its remote is also very light plastic. No complaints otherwise.
