*Does not support pass-through from all 4K/120Hz media sources
A: This is accurate - the current HDMI 2.1 chipset in this receiver is unable to pass through 4K/120hz from a console like the Xbox Series X. It's possible to connect the console directly to your TV and have it pass audio to the AVR with eARC, but it's not ideal. This only affects 4K/120 output, so you could also drop the console settings down to 4K/60 ... but that's not why you got it, right? Denon claims to be working on a solution, but there's no word on what that means yet.
A: This is likely a question better suited for Samsung. It could work if you use the AVR's Monitor Out 1 (ARC) for ARC transmission and then uses Monitor Out 2 for 4K/120 pass through to the TV. You would then have to switch inputs on the Samsung depending on what you want to do. The AVR would be set to Auto(Dual) for the HDMI Outs, so both would be active. I would certainly seek a second opinion from Samsung on this one, as their TV appears to be the device with the most questions hanging over it with what you are hoping to achieve.
Q: Can the (zone 2) pre-outs be assigned as front L&R speakers in the main zone for home cinema?
A: Zone 2 is assignable. 5.1-channel (bi-amp connection for front speaker) 2-channel (Pre-out) I would like to mention that the AVRX3700H does have a pre out section for all channels.
A: Yes I need support.
Q: How many HDMI 2.1 ports does this have?
A: Hello and thank you for your question. The Denon AVR-X2700H has one 8K HDMI 2.1 port. We do offer an external HDMI switch that provides three 8k HDMI 2.1 ports. Model number AVS-3 that can be added to the AVR-S2700H.
A: Hello, please consider the Denon AVR-X4700H for component video pass through from HDMI. HDMI is a digital connection. Component video is analog and requires to be converted from analog to digital to pass through. This feature is found in the AVR-X4700H and above. For the 2700, a separate component video will need to be connected from receiver to TV.
Q: Can the game inputs be used for regular av devices?
A: Yes, these are standard inputs and just labeled for your convenience. There's no operational difference between them.
A: Yes, the cable box/DVR, Blu-Ray player and Apple TV will all use HDMI. The Dot connects over WiFi. The cassette player, turntable and laser disc player will all connect analog. The VCR will also connect analog, but you will need a 2nd connection from the AVR's Video Monitor Out to the TV (composite - yellow) as this AVR does not support Video Conversion. (This feature takes the composite video input and converts it to HDMI level for the output) That feature starts in our X4700H.
