Denon AVR-591
$349.00
Released May, 2010
The Pros:Quick-select button can power on everything at once, including TV. Video upconversion allows TV to stay in one mode. On-screen EQ and general setup.
The Cons:Occasional audio sync problems, generally self-repairing. Output is not high powered compared to similar units. Relatively steep learning curve to take advantage of all functions.
The Denon AVR-591 is one of five 3D-ready, advanced audio/visual receivers released during summer 2010 as an upgrade from previous generation AVR models. All units host HDMI v1.4a Repeater Inputs with 3D/CEC compliance.

In particular, the 5-channel AVR-591 builds from the AVR-391 by adding along analog-to-HDMI video conversion and support for HD audio decoding, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. Like its predecessor, the AVR-591 relies on four HDMI 1.4a inputs that support 3D pass-through (Broadcast and Blu-ray), Audio Return Channel, and CEC. Additional features include standard, iPod connectivity, Audyssey MultiEQ corrections system for auto speaker configurations, and discrete power at 120 watts per channel.

#denon_avr_591 My old Pnasonic home entertainment center died. Trashed it, keeped the cheepo speakers that came with it. I got an AVR-591 A/V Reciever for Christmas. This system does not recognize the subwoofer that I plugged into the 591's "Subwoofer Pre Out". My subwoofer has no controls on it, it just plugs in. I will have to wait until I can afford better speakers to upgrade. Any suggestions on how I can use this subwoofer?
