The best AV receivers give you vast connectivity for all your audio and video sources.
No HDMI 2.1The STRDH590 is an entry-level AVR that can handle Ultra-HD content such as 4K Blu-ray and HDR video. With 90W RMS per channel, it’s got plenty of sonic punch, and it supports Dolby and DTS surround sound decoding. If you’re looking for Dolby Atmos or DTS:X support, you won’t find it here. But if you’re satisfied with good old 5.1 surround sound and don’t care about transitioning to 8K, then the STRDH590 is the best 4K AV receiver for you at this price point.
Sony equipped the unit with four HDMI inputs and one ARC out. Notice that it’s not eARC because the STRDH950’s HDMI ports are of the 2.0 variety rather than 2.1. Other input ports include optical, coaxial, and analog. There are no phono inputs, though, so you’d need an external preamp for connecting a turntable. However, you get an FM antenna port and a front-panel USB input for playing music from external drives.
Overall, if you’re not trying to keep up with the latest and greatest but want to watch movies or play games in 5.1 surround sound, the STRDH590 will get you there for less without sacrificing quality.The general consensus is that five years is the typical lifespan for an AVR. It’s not like it will just up and die after a certain number of years, like a water heater. Your receiver could function well for 20 years or more.
