Super Surround versterker

STR-DH790 20/12/2024 by Jesse28 (Netherlands)

Ik heb deze laatst aangeschaft omdat het model wat ik had van 2005 was en dus wel op begon te raken. Na het uitpakken en instaleren gelijk het geluid af kunnen stellen met bijgeleverde microfoon voor een perfecte afstelling. Na het testen viel mijn mond open van wat een een fantastisch kwalitatief en strak geluid deze kan produceren zonder enige problemen. Voor de prijs hoef je echt niet 3x Na de denken. Dit is wel de beste voor het geld. Kortom al met al zeer tevreden en een mooie aanvulling in mijn thuis bioscoop

Ampli dolby atmos perfetto

STR-DH790 21/07/2024 by joezeta (Italy)

Ampli dolby atmos perfetto. Suono di alta qualità e funzionale in abbinata ad una tv sony. Forse migliorabile la parte di configurazione e settaggio mi manca un settaggio del suono iniziale per accenderlo e avere un volume già programmato, cosa che trovavo in ampli di fascia più bassa e anche un settaggio globale degli alti e dei bassi con una funzione di raddoppiare i bassi, comunque col mio impianto bose suona benissimo anche collegando il mio giradischi audio technica in line, nessun fruscio o rumori, ottimo il blue tooth aggancia rapido ogni oggetto collegato

Mijn verlengstuk op het televisie kijken

STR-DH790 08/05/2024 by Vierkante Ogen (Netherlands)

Mooie AV-receiver maar ik heb hem nog niet lang genoeg voor een uitgebreide indruk. Bijna alle instellingen staan voorlopig nog in de afgeleverde fabriekswaarden. Kalibreren heb ik al wel gedaan en dat stelt al veel dingen voor je in. Misschien voldoende? Aangesloten zijn op dit moment 4 vloerzuilen maar dat blijf denk ik niet zo. Geluid wordt toch grotendeels door de speakers bepaalt. Wel jammer dat er geen bananapluggen in de achterkant (frontspeakers) kunnen. Op de website staat een afbeelding en daarop lijkt dat wel zo. Bluetooth is ook leuk, iPhone geluid over de AV-receiver naar de speakers en daar komen de bassen. Dat ik deze AV-receiver heb gekocht komt omdat ik al wat eerder ook een Sony TV heb aangeschaft en dat werkt wel compatibel. Automatisch schakelt de TV de geluidsinstellingen van de AV-receiver zoals bijv. Dolby Surround als dat aan de orde is. Voorlopig ben ik er nog wel even zoet mee om alle instellingen te ontdekken.

STR-DH790 27/03/2024 by Jabond007 (Spain)

Un decente receptor que reúne todo lo que necesita un usuario medio sin gastar mucho dinero. La única pega es que cuando activas la función "Modo Noche" en el display de frontal se queda permanente la palabra "Night Mode" en vez de quitarse pasado unos segundos, a ver si una actualización lo soluciona.

STR-DH790 08/02/2024 by EvertPrakkie (Netherlands)

Wederom weer een prachtig en betaalbaar product van Sony, gebruik nu al meer dan 30 jaar bijna alles van Sony en ben er altijd tevreden mee geweest. Ook deze AV is precies wat ik zocht er zitten geen onnodige dingen in, heb het ook aangesloten aan mijn PC, dus hoef Dac etc niet te hebben. Het geluid en kracht is uitstekend heb nu een setup 5.2.2 Atmos en het klinkt prachtig

Eccellente ricevitore str dh790

STR-DH790 20/08/2023 by Calogero69 (Italy)

Ho comprato questo articolo per abbinarlo al mio home cinema 5.1.2 dolby atmos, devo dire che sono rimasto molto soddisfatto anche per la sua completezza di tecnologia. L'unico inconveniente per me è stato solo la mancanza di collegamento ad internet, quindi LAN e wifi, che mi costringe ad utilizzare altri modi per lo streaming. A parte questo, spero in un nuovo modello con il suddetto aggiornamento.

Uitstekende aankoop

STR-DH790 04/05/2023 by TFJ1 (Netherlands)

De AV-receiver voldoet volledaig aan mijn verwachtingen. De mogelijkheden zijn legio. Het aansluiten is eenvoudig. Ik was vooraf benieuwd of de grote staande B&W-luidsprekers goed uit de verf zouden komen, en dat is helemaal het geval. Ik heb er een aantal kleinere luidsprekers omheen staan en die zijn makkelijk in de Sony aan te sluiten voor de surround/dolby-effecten. Omdat de receiver de geluidsverdeling zelf kan scannen en instellen is het resultaat echt helemaal top. Ik ben er blij mee.

Does what it says, great simple amp.

STR-DH790 04/02/2023 by BenjaminX9 (United Kingdom)

If you want to get atmos/dts:x for a simple setup, this is the one. For sure, you won't find advanced features like app control but it's perfect for small setups. The only thing I would request by the sony development team is to add another speaker configuration option via firmware. This setting should be 'rear high'. Because dts:x ignores, 'surround dolby speakers', 'front dolby speakers' and 'top middle speakers'. The only height setting that works for dts:x is 'front high speakers'. This is because dts:x only has four height speakers and not six like atmos. Aside from that, everything is as you would expect. Plays nicely via eARC and with hdmi cec. 4k passes through nicely on this.

I have had this avr for only 2 weeks and have not been able to even tell the unit to set for 5.1 system. I am finding the software difficult and the manual next to useless. My previous avr was an onkyo and I had no problems setting that up. Will plod on with the help of google and YouTube videos.

Great value

STR-DH790 05/11/2022 by LIGHTENING 46 (United Kingdom)

Really positively impressed with this reciever. It makes watching TV, DVDs, streaming and virgin cable more pleasurable as I can hear the dialogue clearer and it adds more dimension to all the other sounds. I've started to rewatch all my DVDs to get the better sound experience. Very versatile speaker set ups are a bonus. A real bargain and I would recommend for a buy.

STRDH790 24/06/2022 by EdenBlack (Canada) Verified Purchaser Verified

The Sony STRDH790 receiver seems to do everything that I want, It does have one quirk though. When I turn on my three units, Shaw TV digital box, TV and Sony receiver, with one button on the Shaw remote, all the units turn on but the Sony receiver then has a screen come up that makes me have to press the Sony ok button twice to get rid of it. A little annoying but not a deal breaker. Would be nice if Sony came up with an update for it.

STR-DH790 22/06/2022 by Noiway (United Kingdom)

Bad and no one has ever seen the problem. No atmos sound so bad for me. I don't like the sound or the meny on the receiver since it can't even get a signal on the screen. Bad thing for the Playstation 4K not to be possible to use 4k useless for me, so I don't think I will be a good idea to use it

MORE than what it says on the tin !

STR-DH790 21/02/2022 by Nelly Nuts (United Kingdom)

Our old Onkyo gave up the ghost so opted for this unit. Compared to others in the market place, was a tad dubious to how it would work due to its price ... Worries Over. Easy to set up using old wiring sytem (5.1 surround) to Kef speakers. Options according to what you are listening to or watching is easiy accessible and easy to change. Then there's the Bluetooth connection, how easy is that? Connected within seconds and pumping out some very clear sounds. Used it now for a few weeks and so pleased we opted for this unit (Sony ST-DH790) purchased from Richer Sounds. As far as home system (not bespoke room for theatre, but average open lounge with furniture, ornaments and pictures which will effect the sound for the purests) goes, does exactly what we needed and impressed with the drifting sounds reflected in the films/programmes we watch.

eARC allows for HD sound and ease of operation

STR-DH790 15/02/2022 by Souljah (United Kingdom)

I picked this up after upgrading my TV and needed an eARC compatible receiver to complete my audio needs. Atmos sounds awesome and the receiver is capable of outputting 4K/60 (which includes the majority of devices) and I’ve simply put the 4K/120 straight to my TV. I don’t imagine I will be buying a lot of 120hz devices, but the TV has space for two of them, with the rest being able connect to the TV also, or direct to the receiver. The receiver is smaller in height than my previous one, making fitting it in a breeze. The lack of pluggable speakers connections (only the front l and r have them) means no banana plugs on Center and Surround Left/Right connections may mean you might want to check your wire gage, but otherwise a great package at a good price.

Manque prise extérieure pour antenne FM. Interférences des télécommandes avec TV Sony. Réglages pointus demandant beaucoup de temps.

Feature rich inexpensive 5.1.2 Amp

STR-DH790 15/12/2020 by AndyMall (United Kingdom)

After buying a new 4k (Sony) TV I wanted to update and upgrade my all in one surround sound package, and allow 4k pass through. Given past good experiences with Sony synchronisation between TVs and AV amps, positive reviews and being in stock (given Covid the choice was slightly limited) I bout the STR-DH790. The speakers are connected to Polk TL1600 5.1 speakers and Sony BRAVIA KD43XH81 TV and Tivo V6. I also have Fire TV Stick, Apple TV and Nintendo Wii inputs. Set up was straight forward and although I have played with settings I settled for the auto-set up selection. Sound for movies and music is as impressive a my speakers and ears can cope with, so happy I did not spend any more on the amp. Blutooth connectivity for music is seamless and really easy. Interconnectivity (via HDMI) is good, so rationalises my remote control selection. Th one minor irritant is the menus - there are on screen and LED on the unit, neither are great, but to be fair they work and as you don't use them much after initial set up I can live with those short-comings.

Good amp but some issues that need to be resolved

STR-DH790 29/11/2020 by Musa1978 (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified

Good amp thin fits into most cabinets. But last firmware update was 2018 and DD+ does not work at all in auto format decode and dolby.

Maßlos enttäuscht

STR-DH790 03/09/2020 by WausKaarst (Germany) Verified Purchaser Verified

Ich wollte meinen betagten Receiver STR-DB940 erneuern, und habe mich für dieses Gerät entschieden. Merkwürdig war der 1. Eindruck, es fehlt ein Koxial-Antennenanaschluss, OK dachte ich, wird schon klappen. Gerat am 1.9.20 gekauft. Die 1. Probleme schon beim anschließen der Front-Lautsprecher, die Öffnungen für das Kabel waren schräg angeordnet (2/8 Uhr) statt waagerecht oder senkrecht angeordnet, eine fummelei. Als dann nun (fast) alles angeschlossen war, funktioniert mein Plattenspieler leider nicht ohne Ground (GND) Anschluß. Mit der total billig gemachten Wurfantenne war kein Radioempfang möglich, eine Koxial Anschluss für den "normalen" FM Anschluss fehlt! OK dachte ich, Blue Tooth war ja da, nur es gab keine Möglichkeit Internet-Radio zu hören, hier fehlt z.B. eine Sony-APP zur Ansteuerung. Wenn wenigstens noch ein LAN-Anschluß verfügbar wäre, könnte man noch anderweitig ausweichen, hat er aber auch nicht! Da es keine andere Möglichkeit gibt, eine andere Wurf- oder Zimmerantenne anzuschließen, werde ich diese Gerät nicht mehr behalten, und zurück geben! ENTTÄUSCHUNG PUR1

Amazing Amp

STR-DH790 03/06/2020 by Warwick71 (United Kingdom)

Was looking at the Dn1080, but realised I didn’t actually need the two hdmi outputs or the chrome cast or any of the other networking features. I didn’t care about the banana connectors missing of the back as I like the clip connectors. So for me this was well worth the £150 saving. Still offers the same sound features and loud enough for me.

Great sound, feature rich, simple set up

STR-DH790 20/01/2020 by BigWut (United Kingdom)

I had a Sony 5.1 tuner (STR-DH510) but needed to upgrade when I went UltraHD on my TV so it would support UHD (4K) pass trough. I purchased a new 5.1 Denon amp but had to return it because of a fault with the audio (random white noise) and nowhere to get support easily. I spent ages trying to find someone I could speak to, or a web site that would offer rather than take it in to the retailer. I returned the Denon to the retailer and upgraded to the DH970 from Sony. Great choice! Works perfectly (with Samsung TV and Sky Q box) straight out of the box! Sound is really good (Wharfdale 5.1 speakers at the moment but will soon now add two high level Atmos speakers). This is also smaller than my last amp, but still a stylish and quality appearance. Only minor points are with the Tuner part of the system. It's only FM (no AM or DAB); the aerial socket at the back is a strange almost PCN edge connector type rather than for coax (is there an adaptor available??) so my external roof mounted di-pole aerial can't be connected.

Very poor product. No TV display for settings

Used for a short duration just to experience ATMOS. The product is very poor- low quality sound output even with Bose speakers. Do not buy this tin box

excellent dans sa gamme de prix

produit installé chez moi il y a deux semaine. J'ai encore quelques difficulté pour obtenir de l'UHD HDR (RGB 4:4:4)avec ma PS4 Pro. Peut-être (j'espère) en raison d'un câble HDMI inadapté, même si j'en ai déjà essayé plusieurs haute vitesse + internet...

appareil plaisant et bien conçu

STR-DH790 29/08/2019 by Trustbox (France) Verified Purchaser Verified

Après quelques semaines de fonctionnement, mon avis est le suivant: - Appareil bien conçu et esthétique agréable. - Taux de distorsion (0.9) un peu élevé. - Après plusieurs essais pour programmer la configuration j'ai enfin réussi à l'adapter à mes enceintes. Bonnes restitution sur DVD, dommage que la TNT ne soit pas au niveau ! C'est du Sony, merci Sony

Something is missing.

STRDH790 23/08/2019 by Kelly131313 (Canada) Verified Purchaser Verified

All told this receiver had been a well working device, with one thing missing. It is advertized as having Dolby Atmos but there is no sign of it within any of its functions. It is also absent from what little literature that came with it. It was a bit overpriced for all it can do but it gets the job done.
