Sony STR-DH790 4K 7.2-Channel Home Theater AV Receiver

Give your home entertainment system a cinematic upgrade. The powerful 7.2 channel receiver supports the latest three-dimensional surround sound audio formats including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, drawing you into the middle of the action you see on screen. And with 4k Ultra HD picture quality and Dolby Vision, that’ll transform your viewing experiences, you’ll enjoy an immersive theater-like experience in the comfort of your own home.

Consistently Stunning 4K Quality 

Maintain 4K quality from source to screen—the 4K pass-through feature allows data to pass through the receiver without compromising image quality, and is HDCP 2.2 compatible. By supporting High Dynamic Range (HDR) signal pass-through, you can enjoy the incredible jump in contrast and brightness it brings—and the additional shadow detail and highlights further enhance picture detail and brings color to life. Latest HDR standards such as HDR10, HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma), and Dolby Vision are supported. 

Lifelike Sound with DTS:X and Dolby Atmos

Dolby Atmos delivers breathtaking realism with 360-degree surround sound by accurately positioning sound from every angle in your environment—even from above. The result is rich audio that completely envelops you. DTS:X decoding delivers multi-dimensional surround sound that adapts to your speaker configuration in real-time. Sound is positioned precisely around and above you, thanks to object-based audio decoding.

Immersive 5.1.2-Channel Sound and 7.1-Channel Cinematic Sound

Put yourself at the heart of the action with an immersive 5.1.2 channel surround speaker system, delivering lifelike audio from every angle—even above. The 7.1 channel surround speaker system is the ideal way to close up any gaps in your sound space, even in bigger rooms.

Superior Audio with Advanced D.C.A.C.

If you’re working with different combinations of speakers, our seamless auto-calibration technology will have them all delivering the same high-quality sound. Automatic Phase Matching aligns the phase characteristics of your speakers to the front left and right speaker channels so that all channels work perfectly together delivering a more effective surround sound experience.

Smarter Bluetooth Connectivity

Not only can you connect to the STR-DH790 through Bluetooth and play all your favorite tracks, but with Bluetooth Standby, you can turn your receiver on straight from your paired smartphone or tablet.

Get Connected 

Just plugin and press play. With four HDMI inputs and one output, optical/coaxial digital and analog audio connections, you can connect your UHD Blu-ray Disc player, TV, and games console easily.

High-Resolution Audio

Enjoy the subtlest nuances of studio-quality sound in higher than CD quality with High-Resolution Audio. Passion for music unites every component from signal to speaker so it feels like the artist is performing right in front of you.

Streamlined Slim Design 

With a robust, space-saving design, the receiver can easily fit into your media unit. Plus, a rigid chassis reduces vibration to help maintain signal fidelity.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Affordable home theater amplifier This is a great home theater amplifier that people on a budget will enjoy. Very easy to setup and the fine tuning microphone is a good help. Only thing I think is missing is more bananas plug inputs. The sound is awesome.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Solid entry All around it's a solid receiver, just lacking in the feature department. Menus could be better and more options. Sony cheaped out and only allowed for banana plug ports for the left and right channels, center and surrounds are bare wire terminals. Having some issues with passthrough with Xbox Series X as well, having to bypass the AVR and go through the tv for full functionality. This could very well be user error, but I can't find the correct setting... it shouldn't be difficult. I do really like the Bluetooth connection, love being able to stream from my phone. What sold me was the eARC and it pairs well with my Bravia OLED with the shared remote function.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Just what I needed Now that my wife and I are empty nesters we remodeled our house to better meet our needs. When we moved our home theater/entertainment room to another location on our home this Sony 7.2 Home theater AV was exactly what we needed. The capabilities are perfect for our needs and the results are perfect for our new location.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product Got this for my birthday a few weeks ago and I absolutely love it. Replaced my aging sony 5.1 because the right channel kept clicking off.
Date published: 2023-05-12
Rated 2 out of 5 by from Sound is just OK, turns itself on and off randomly Sound is just Ok, my Harmon Karden sounds much better. The remote has been glitchy, sometimes not wanting to work and the receiver randomly turns on and the shuts off.
