- Number of Channels: 7.1 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)

Whats Included
- Denon AVR 7.2-Ch. Bluetooth Capable With HEOS 4K Ultra HD HDR Compatible A/V Home Theater Receiver
A: Yes. The outside speakers are Zone 2. The inside are Zone 1. You then select with the remote or on the front of the AVR which Zone you want to be active. The labeling at each connector on the back of the AVR and the Denon set-up guide make this a very easy process. Here's a tip. Read the set-up instructions all the way thru before starting the set-up. It is very useful, even for someone like me that was only replacing one established 7.1 AVR unit with a better, newer one. I have been very pleased with both the audio and video thru this Denon AVR.
A: The issue you are likely having is that you are hooking up your Wii and N64 to your Denon receiver via component cables but you only have HDMI output from your Denon receiver to your TV. The Denon receiver will not convert the component input signal to HDMI so you won't get an image. You either have to connect component cables out from your Denon receiver to your TV or get a component to HDMI converter inline between your Wii and N64 and the Denon Receiver or you will have to go from N64 and Wii to your TV directly and have the TV output via HDMI or Optical to your Denon receiver. The easiest and cheapest route though is just running the component out from the receiver to the TV.
A:
Hey Richard,
Yes, you will be able to listen to Bluetooth headphones and have your speakers on.
Thanks,
Denon North America
Q: does this unit have the ARC HDMI connection ?
A:
Hey Steve,
Yes, this unit has ARC HDMI connection.
Thanks,
Denon North America
A:
Hey ralexander,
Unfortunately no, the 2nd HDMI out on this receiver will only show the same video from Monitor 1 with no sound.
Thanks,
Denon North America
Q: What speakers would you recommend for this receiver?
A: That is a question for your budget. It also depends if you have speakers you can/want to keep. I have some Klipsch, Polk and my subwoofer is BIC America Formula F-12. Speakers are entirely subject for you and your budget. Has some medium and low priced speakers.
A: I believe you're rock speaker will connect to a Denon 950 thru the Helios app on your reciever. The cutting in and out maybe due to a weak WiFi signal out side you're home. You may need to up grade you're internet router or a WiFi booster. That is my best guess. I hope this helps.
A: Hey Vinny, yes this one supports all the latest eARC features including Dolby Atmos and uncompressed, bitstream sound from any source that supports it.
