Great AV Receiver
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This receiver works great in our living room. We have back in wall speakers but still need to purchase a center channel and some bookshelf speakers to finish the setup.

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 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.

Good for starters
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was my first reciever I ever bought and I can honestly say I'm satisfied the setup up was simple and it worked as advertised. The more I played with it the more movies I watched and the more I did my research I realized I should of spent a little bit more for a more top tier reciever. This one does the job but has limitations as far as sound and features on my next purchase I'm definitely going bigger like 7.1 with atmos and all the bells and whistles.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not sure how I would rate the new Sony receiver. I have always had Onkyo before and they were easy to set up, have great surround sound and change between TV and gaming easily. Attaching wiring to the Sony is easy, set up is definitely more complicated and I doubt if I have it done correctly. Each time I turn on TV there is a default back to asking what I want to do and where I want to go and it asks me this twice. The surround sound also must have the same thing because I have to press buttons to get it working each time I want it Needless to say I am not that pleased with the unit but it does work and quite possibly would work much better if it were set up differently. I may need to get the Geek Squad to come and see if they can get it working better. Right now I would suggest another product based upon my difficulty but this was all Best Buy had when I needed something that wasn't in the $800+ catagory.

Posted .Hi Damom,
We're sorry to learn you've been having difficulty setting up your new STR-DH590 receiver. We would like to know more about the situation you faced with the receiver. If the receiver home menu pops up when switching to view content from other connected devices and the receiver is connected to the TV using an HDMI cable to the HDMI eARC/ARC port, make sure that all HDMI devices connected have HDMI Control enabled. If all devices have HDMI Control enabled:
• If power is turned on from a device (such as a Blu-ray Disc player), then the soundbar or receiver and the TV turn on, and the TV switches to the proper input to view the menu or content.
• By design and normal operation, soundbars and receivers identify the connected HDMI device, and the content (including the menu display) passes through to the TV.
Note: If all HDMI devices are connected to the TV and only the HDMI ARC/eARC port connects to the soundbar or receiver, then the TV will both control and display all device menus and content.
If you need further assistance regarding your concern, we are more than happy to help you out. You can email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Everything is great
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to change the receiver from sony to Yamaha. Brad, the installer from Best Buy, said that the wire configuration was not meant for the Sony model. He was right and I ordered the Yamaha and it was perfect. Brad did a great job explaining the different setup and after using it I realize that the cord cutting and getting rid of all the other devices and adding Roku was the right thing to do. Thanks,Brad

Excellent value for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really this receiver - it is easy to set-up and has lots of input/output options. Remote has just the right amount of buttons (no overkill on buttons I have no idea what they do). I give it only 4 stars because the only way to adjust the bass/treble output manually is by hooking the receiver up to the the tv via hdmi cable which is just annoying and cumbersome to change and really unnecessarily takes up an HDMI input on the tv.

Great value, easy to setup.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I figured that this was just going to be another run of the mill receiver to replace a unit that finally died after years of use, but I was pleasantly surprised by the features that it had. It automatically connected to my TV (which is a slightly older model Aquos) and makes switching from one input to another easy without having to change both the TV and the receiver.
