    Sony has been a go to brand for the better part of 40 years for myself. i use this product to drive a pair of Klipsch La Scalla with the top volume of 3 out of ten. the market today has power amplifier prices that are inconsistent with quality. this has a clean looped sound from a Yamaha network amp. and i am sure it would be great in your home theater as it is in my garage.

    Crystal clear sound, video and not overly expensive. The 4k Upscale really enhanced the video quality. I had purchased a previous version of this almost 10 years ago and still works but needed something with newer technology. The Bluetooth and 4k upscaler are amazing.

    My 4-5 year old Denon Receiver started having HDMI problems. Tried new cables before searching web discovering others with same problem. Searched for reviews on number of places Lifewire, Cord Cutters and then from Amazon, Crutchfield and Best Buy. Even though had not bought a Sony in years went with this unit and Best Buy "Curb Side" pick up, love that by the way. Wow! Great Sound. What a great difference. For that price? Happy, happy!!!

    This receiver is great. I have my 4K blu ray player hooked up, my PS4 Pro and my switch hooked up to it. The receiver allows the HDR pass through of my pro which looks great. Having surround sound on my games is awesome. My LG TV has the HDMI ARC so when I watch Hulu it has surround sound as well. My LG remote works for my receiver so I don’t have a bunch of remotes to use which is very nice. So far I am loving this receiver and highly recommend it.

      Hi Benna919,

      That's great! We're glad that you like the superb features and it tailors outstanding sound quality in your living room. Here are also some recommended Sony speakers that can be paired with the STR-DH590:

      • Sony SSCS3 3-Way Floor-Standing Speaker - These speakers have a powerful bass response and clear, detailed highs that make them ideal for use as front speakers in a home theater setup.
      • Sony SSCS5 3-Way Bookshelf Speaker - These compact speakers deliver big sound for their size, making them a great choice for use as rear speakers in a surround sound system.
      • Sony SSCS8 2-way 3-driver Center Channel Speaker - This speaker delivers an unprecedented and real audio experience, with a soundstage so expansive you can feel the energy and passion of the original performance.
      • Sony SSCSE Dolby Atmos Enabled Speakers - These speakers are designed to deliver immersive, three-dimensional sound, and can be used as height speakers in a Dolby Atmos setup.

      Thanks for leaving us such a great review of your STRDH590. Thanks for choosing Sony!

    I couldn't find the cheaper model in store so I picked this one up instead. It's paired to two polk stereos and into a polk sub. I use it for my gaming PC's audio via optical and i love it. Bluetooth is crisp, my pc sounds amazing, and I can't imagine going back. There are multiple areas for additions if i desire so and the design fits in perfectly with my setup. It does get dusty, but I use a data vac for that.

    This receiver is easy to set up and has a very intuitive set of connectors that removes the guesswork. The automatic sound calibration is quick and easy and removes the need for additional fine tuning (although you can still fine tune if you want). Good overall system for a basement movie theater.

    OK entry level surround sound amplifier. Pros: easy setup, ARC works well, looks nice and decent sound. Cons: Does NOT pass through 120Hz for 4K gaming, just 60hz. You have to connect game consul directly to TV. Sound can seem tinny at times.
