I bought the Denon AVR-591 to simplify my home-theatre setup and so far it’s working perfectly. The Quick Select buttons also power-on the unit and so my preschool kids are able to press just one button (‘Quick Select 1′) and get the TV to work. I was also able to reprogram our Logitech Harmony universal remote so that it sends fewer commands.
I also appreciate the analog-to-digital video conversion (the kid’s composite-video Click Start game is converted to HDMI) as it allows me to leave the TV on one input and never need to change it; this also makes the system simpler and more predictable.
The Denon configuration menus are relatively easy to use though I do have to keep the manual around to help me find some of the ‘advanced’ settings. You are required to run their Audessey speaker-test before you can adjust a lot of things, e.g. speaker levels (the center speaker needs to be louder), or ‘Night Mode’ volume compression.
The one problem I’ve had is that I sometimes lose the audio signal/sync, e.g. when I pause my Tivo S3. Switching to/from another input or program always fixes it, though, so I’m only knocking 1 ‘star’ off my score for the unit: I give it 4 Stars.

I’ve been listening to a great podcast about audio and video technologies and found that this was the least expensive of the Denon models that offered the Audyssey MultiEQ room equalization technology. I don’t have a large room for my home theater. Actually it’s a little out of the ordinary in that I have the orientation in a non-ideal setup. I wasn’t sure how this room equalization technology would work in my setup and I wasn’t sure that I would get incredible sound from a unit this inexpensive but I decided to try it anyway. I had a Yamaha receiver previously that had a proprietary calibration setting with a microphone for automatic setup. My experience with that wasn’t very good. Assuming that I read the instructions correctly, which I believe I did, the result ended up turning off my sub completely. I got it tweaked fairly well after playing with it for awhile but, needless to say, I was a little skeptical about the Audyssey setup because of this experience. The reason I decided to try it out anyway was because of the difference between how Audyssey and other companies do this automatic setup process. The Audyssey calibration, for lack of time, is much more complex, complete and precise. I am completely blown away at the difference this has made in the complete sound of my system – both movies and music. I have a pretty good collection of DVD-Audio surround sound music discs and what a difference the new receiver with the Audyssey MultiEQ calibration technology has made. I run Polk Audio RM85 satellite speakers and a Polk Audio PSW110 10-inch active sub through this receiver and the combination is perfect for my room environment and my listening preferences. I highly recomment this receiver

I wanted to upgrade our bedroom system and came across this unit. We all know and love Denon so that part was a slam-dunk… But check out the details, it’s fully 3D ready with 1.4a HDMI, it’s got the Audyssey system for calibrating all your speakers and decodes the latest sound tracks [DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution, DTS ES 6.1 ...] and pumps out 75W/ch. –plenty enough for ANY bedroom system! WAIT WAIT WAIT, I forgot to mention the coolest part, I got this baby delivered all the way to Maui in less than a week for under $400 tax, title and tags!!! Now my system in the bedroom sounds just as good as the living room at a fraction of the cost.. and the girlfriend loves it to because we now go to bed a lot earlier!
BTW, if you didn’t already pick it up, I LOVE this receiver! All thumbs up!

I received this for my Father’s Day/Birthday gift (actually I have the kit-in-a-box with the Boston Audio speakers) and it is amazing! Took me parts of two days to hook it up, as I had to disconnect the old receiver, devices and speakers, connect and configure the devices and install the home theater speakers. Fairly straightforward to configure the speakers using the Audyssey MultiEQ application. When I finally got everything hooked up and configured – impressive!! I watched my first Blu-Ray movies via PS3 (Star Trek and 2012) and my wife yelled at me because it was too loud – I had the sound at -10 db! My only complaints (and they are minor) is that I wish it had more than one component input (I have an 1G XBox 360 and a Wii), and the transition from input to input is slow. the audio seems to sync faster than the video. It can take several seconds to see the picture from the DirecTV receiver (it is a HDMI DVR, but it is probably the DVR’s problem). I’ll resolve the situation by getting a new XBox that supports HDMI and connect the Wii to the component on the receiver. Best money we’ve spent on electronics in YEARS!

The AVR-591 is a solid receiver that does everything I need it to do. This is my 1st Denon product and I must say that it seems to “ooze” quality. Using the included mic with the auto setup program was simple and produced great results when using 5.1 for movies. Needless to say I’m very happy with my purchase.
