If you are someone who owns many streaming devices or video displays and needs the Surround Sound system to be compatible with all of them, the Sony Home Theater receiver has you covered. If you decide that upgrading your audio to match the immersive experience of your 4K display, the STR-DH590 is a solid choice.

We have tested the Sony STR-DH590 5-Channel AV Receiver!

Additional HDMI Inputs: With two extra HDMI inputs, the Sony STR-DH790 provides greater flexibility in connecting your various devices, such as gaming consoles, media players, and streaming devices. While it lacks built-in WiFi, the built-in Bluetooth allows for convenient music streaming from your favorite devices. The digital optical and coaxial inputs provide additional connectivity options for your audio sources. Failure to do so might expose your device to security risks and/or might compromise the proper functioning of the device.For the record, my towers are four-ohm, and this receiver recommends six to 16 ohms--so they would not be an ideal long-term match. Also in ‘Sound Effect’ is a ‘Night Mode’, an ‘Equalizer’ (actually, bass and treble controls) for each channel pair, and ‘Calibration Type’ from which you can choose ‘Engineering’ (the default), ‘Front Ref’, ‘Full Flat’ or ‘Off’. The DH590 is capable of full 4K / 60p 4: 4: 4 signal processing with support for 3D, HDR10, HLG and Dolby Vision. For music, the DH590 offers direct 2-channel stereo and multi-channel sound modes, as well as DPL II Music, Enhancer (to improve lower quality files) modes, and modes such as Hall, Jazz, and more.

For serious music evaluation, I moved away from Bluetooth and popped my Test Tunes CD-R into the Sony X800 player and fed it into the DH590 via HDMI. Everything is hooked up correctly and I hear sound coming from the subwoofers just fine except when in stereo mode.There was no check step at the end, so after it had finished I went to the ‘Speaker Settings’ and found that while the levels and distances seemed to be right, the speakers had all been set to ‘Large’, even the ceiling speakers. Streaming can only be accomplished via Bluetooth, or through a media box such as a Roku, Firestick, etc. I had to use the front panel on/standby button since the one on the remote — a sensible bit of design this — wouldn’t work straight after protection had been activated. Firstly, you only need one connection from one subwoofer pre out on the AV receiver to one low level RCA input on the subwoofer.
