Customer Ratings & Reviews

easy to set up. works great even in bluetooth. produce good sounds.

Great features and capability for the price. Rated output power and its low noise rating seem to be accurate when pushing out content of various sources at very high levels. My only complaint is in regard to accessing and understanding the on-system menu and its hidden sub-levels and categories. I really needed to spend a lot of time figuring out where basic adjustments and system features resided! But other than this issue, no complaints and a strong buy recommendation for a great 4K HD 5.2 Ch system such as this Sony STRDH590 unit!

I recently replaced my receiver with this Sony, because my old receiver did not have HDMI inputs or ARC. I wasn't expecting too much for this price, but I was surprised when I got this home! It has a microphone to adjust speaker levels and sound to your room, and it sounds twice as good as my old receiver, which cost me 4 times as much as the Sony!

Absolutely loving this receiver! Highly recommend it if you are looking for a simple 5 channel for your living room or movie room. I’m using it in my movie room. I have a project hooked up that is older so I had to run a 50 ft hdmi cord and have all my gaming systems in there. So we use the Xbox to play movies as well. Have my 5 corded Bose speakers hooked up. Easy to hook up and set up sound with the mic it has. You can connect your phone (Bluetooth) and play music, it just overall worked really well for me.

Excellent receiver for the money if you do not need more speaker channels. Easy to set up and program for desired sound effect. Only downside for me is I have a couple of old components that only have RCA outputs, and receiver has no RCA inputs—easily solved with a $10-$12 RCA to HDMI converter.

A lot of nice features. Bought this for a patio projector screen system. Price was definitely the deciding factor. It comes with all the features you would except in a surround sound receiver. The only thing it is lacking that I wish it had is a second zone, other that that I am very happy with this purchase.

I bought this to replace my 12 year old receiver. Easy to set up and we connected it to the 5.2 surround sound in my sitting room. Only confusing thing is we couldn't figure out how to listen to movies/tv shows that were through an app instead of the cable. So it worked for cable but not if we were watching Netflix, Hulu, etc

Great let the music play !! No problems at all with this purchase! Easy set up ! Looks nice not too large and it does not take up a lot of space in my room ! Excellent buy , price very reasonable and happy with it !

Plug and play! I have been getting by with old equipment and pairing with TVs and smartphones was rough. This receiver solves all those problems and pushes some great sound!

My Samsung surround sound’s rear Bluetooth speakers started giving out. I was considering going to Sonos or buying another Samsung all in one surround sound theater. But I didn’t feel like spending the money so I just bought this and reused all my Samsung speakers except for the subwoofer. The sub on the Samsung was passive and I needed an active so this I purchased somewhere else. Also I bought this open box and it still worked perfect, it had a small scratch on the front which didn’t even matter to me cause I’ll prob scratch it myself anyway. So all the speakers were reused and re-wired the Bluetooth speakers and ran some cable under my house to maintain the wireless look and I totally prefer the wired cause you will NEVER get any breakup. I’ve had this for a month now and it’s lived up to all expectations! Price is good. Function is good. And the calibration is awesome!!

This sony rocks, i had this in my mans cave at first, the sound quality is amazing, sony is well known for speed and wide sounds, after this receiver, i bought the str dn1080 which is much powerful, but less sound field, atmost is just the additional and power, but for sound feild its the str dh590, if u have small to medium size and pair it with q acoustic 3020i, or micca rb42 with 5.1 svs 1000pro, youll be rockin, at first i pair this with bose v series, its amazing, then bought the micca rb42, with 5.1 set up, its amazing, the sound quality of this is amazing when you watch movie or streaming like netflix in dolby, if u dont like it in dolby you can select the other sound feild, i bought 3 av receiver in 6 months plus 3 tvs, different brand, but rnd up exchanging it to all Sony. U can’t get wrong with sony, now this str dh590 is in my daughters room, my mans cave has str dn1080, my living room has strdn1070 which is the older model of 1080,

I am using this receiver in a small living room and the sound is great. Easy set up but I agree with a previous review where it was stated that the set up menu was lacking in some areas for complete set up and you do need to reference the complete set up manual but as I stated before, it is easy to see up and has all of the inputs needed for my viewing and listening pleasure.

The STR-DH590 certainly packs a punch with all the included features, and the clean sound from this unit. I currently have a pair of Sony SS-CS5 Bookshelf speakers and the sound is fantastic. Having a built-in option for Bluetooth is game changing for me.

Nice receiver for the price. If you hook it up to the tv via HDMI cable there is a settings menu to adjust your audio to your liking which is very cool.

A very good receiver. The Auto Calibration Mic had no problems and worked the first time right out of the box. Very good separation of any audio playback in some old VHS tapes. Old receiver, about 15 years old, just seemed loud, This receiver actually makes you "feel" were certain musical notes/instruments or special effects are coming from. Clear subwoofer signal as well. Love the ability to customize various levels of the speakers. Can easily select different audio settings for even more effects for different audio formats. To be honest only used HDMI from a DVD player just to see if pass through worked. It worked fine but since older buyer and not plagued with a plethora of HDMI based electronics, probably will not use much if at all. Bluetooth worked with no problems. FM stereo was decent but the "antennae" is woefully short. If you live in an area with lots of buildings get ready for some less than optimum reception. All in all a very good receiver for the money. Would absolutely buy again if needed.

Excellent addition to my home theater. It looks and sounds great, and gets plenty loud. HDMI input switching and component control is super convenient.

So Far so Good! Great sound and love the Bluetooth.

I wanted to keep using my wired speakers so I purchased this. Sometimes, you just want to hear the old-school radio on your decades-old speakers and reminisce about the good old days. This was an open box deal. The unit came with a little ding but otherwise working well!

For the money this is a good unit. It would be better if it had more adjustments for the speakers. The bass from the sub is on the light side. It has made my bluray discs sound much better than my old receiver. I am happy with my purchase for the sale price I got it for.

Great purchase that goes awesome with my 75" smart tv. Great surround sound quality perfect for movies. Love the Bluetooth capability to connect to other devices. Only knock on it would be the excessive wiring I needed to hide as best as possible other than that it's perfect for it's use
