It works.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s entry level, it’s made to work and nothing else. I haven’t noticed any audio issues or video issues. It does 5.1 surround sound. The surround options and settings are bad and the menu is awful.

This little box puts out simple magic
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little box puts out simple magic. After returning an entry level Pioneer Elite, I chose to test this unit. I was very impressed! I understood perfectly why this unit has received so many positive reviews in multiple publications. It does the job simply. And for someone who had to make sure that I needed to be in the right DSP for two channel sources vs multichannel sources in my 13-year old Yamaha RX-V663, this unit’s HDCPS decoder takes care of making the most put of the any source that takes in. I liked it so much that I ended up returning it to then buy the STR-DH790 and its expanded setup options. Hopefully, Best Buy will soon list the DH790 in inventory so I enjoy this simple but magical Sony AV system.

Sony STR DH 590
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to buy a new receiver to replace an older Pioneer that lacked HDMI ports The Sony seemed to be a good buy. It seems to work fine, but the setup is hard using the amp menu and the display on the front of the receiver. I'm really having a hard time making it work with my new Insignia Fire TV, and tech support is non existent. Would not recommend this product to anyone.
