User questions & answers

Question:	Can i use the mb42x-c speakers even though impedance varies between 4 to 8 ohms? the receiver impedance says 6-16 ohms. will i be ok
Answer:	My Sony PS-LX250H works very nicely with this receiver. There is no phono input. So I plugged the red and white RCA's into the SAT/CATV input jack.
Question:	So this connects multiple speakers with Bluetooth
Answer:	40 watts
Question:	are the hdmi inputs actual inputs or just pass thru
Answer:	Dear Consumer, thanks for your question! Pls kindly noted that it doesn't work that way. The subwoofer acts like your echo studio. You pair a sound source device (phone, tablet, laptop,TV) to the subwoofer together with speakers to play sound from. For the method of connection pls check the description in this page, for more questions, pls feel free to contact [email protected].
Question:	I'm looking for a good sony reciever that i can hook my turntable up to from the back
Answer:	Yes. I used a single RCA Male to Male, then a Y adapter to go from RCA Female to 2 RCA Males. Works very well.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do you keep the display on the front from turning off after a few seconds? My screen stays blank unless I hit display or adjust the volume
Answer:	It’s 9 channels powered. 2 outputs for the subs If you are wiring 11 channels you will need an additional 2 channel amp or go to the 6700h
Question:	Does this allow hdr passthrough for xbox one x
Answer:	SURE CAN! I HAVE A FIRESTICK (4K) PLUGGED INTO A HDMI PORT ON THE BACK, AND IT PERFORMS PERFECTLY. I DO BOTH AMAZON AND NETFLIX FROM IT, BETTER THAN LG APPLICATION TV USES.
Question:	Tv has amazon and netflix. when i turn the receiver to tv mod and try to watch either netflix or amazon i can get the picture but no sound. thoughs
Answer:	I have not heard a 3500, and I own a 4500. According to this reference (https://www.avsforum.com/forum/90-receivers-amps-processors/2973392-official-2018-denon-s-series-x-series-avr-owner-s-thread-faq-posts-1-8-a.html) what the 4500 adds over 3500 is below. Looks like the 3500 does not have AL32 processing, which is significant imo. Also the 3500 will not get the "IMAX Enhanced" certification & modes coming to the X4500 and 6500 (no one knows if those are any good, but worth noting). --- Upgrading from the X3500H adds: 2 additional on board amps for 9CH on board processing (ie. 7.1.2 or 5.1.4; with capability to expand to 11CH processing (ie. 7.1.4) using an external 2CH amp), 11.2 main zone pre-outs, Zone 3 (same inputs as Zone 2 except not HDMI), a 2nd 12v trigger, front panel display of speaker inputs (or outputs), metal front panel with 2 line display, Custom 2 CH main zone settings (using FL/FR or dedicated Front B; LARGE/SMALL; crossover settings, sub – on/off, distance, level), two internal cooling fans, Auro 3D/Auromatic, AL32 Processing, Bass Sync; Remote Control able to store preset codes from other mfr devices (see below) and the ability to add Auro 3D Voice of God/Top Surround via the Subwoofer pre-out 2 only. Audyssey (but not Dynamic EQ, Dynamic Volume, LFC) enabled when DTS Virtual:X is selected. ---
Question:	Found a bug. when playing music and i turn on the tv, gets stuck in muting/unmuting loop until a reboot. dae see this
Answer:	Will not pass through 4k @ 120Hz or 8k @ 60Hz do to a bottleneck of the Panasonic chip used. This impacts the all the 2020 Denon AVRs and most mfg claiming HDMI 2.1 compatible. The work around us to connect your pc or console directly to your HDMI 2.1 TV and use the TVs eARC back to the AVR. Even then not all TVs pass lossless via eARC equally.
