    Great stereo. Plenty of power to drive my old 1970s Pioneer speakers (15" sub, 5" mid, 4" mid, 3" horn tweeter, and two 1" super tweeters per cabinet. Yes, they are loud! :)

    I have a Sony TV which is excellent so when my AV gave out it was decided to go all Sony. This was a very good decision as it was easy to sync everything, including my new Sony blue ray. Pretty much seamless.

    I upgraded from a mid-1990s Kenwood receiver. It still works great, but it doesn't have HDMI passthrough, and my Samsung smart TV only has two HDMI ports and I was tired of switching out inputs. My favorite part about upgrading to something 20 years newer is the automatic setup with the included calibration mic. My speakers have never sounded better! Excellent mid-range option, fulfills my need for a simple 5.2 surround sound experience.

    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.

      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:

    I am really impressed with the way this receiver has helped to improve the sound of movies & TV. I am just using it in a 3.1 configuration and it fills the family room (my man cave) with great sound. I like that I can add surround speakers later. It quickly adjusted the sound from the speakers to the room. Knowing that it is so quick to adjust allows us to change things in the room without worrying about needing a long calibration time.
