A:AnswerYou can absolutely hook up a turntable to this receiver via the phono hookups on the rear panel. You also do not need a pre-amp if using this receiver as it will handle the amplification internally. I am using an Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK with two Sony bookshelf speakers and a Klipsch sub. Everything works and sounds great!
A:AnswerYou can; and my iPhone Xr does, and it works effortlessly every time. I especially like that you can control the output volume through the iPhone. One push of volume up (or down) on the iPhone moves the unit’s volume up or down an equivalent six or seven steps...very nice touch and convenient to easily and quickly turn up great music.
A:AnswerI do not remember if I used some of my cords or not. There are cords and antennae that come with the unit. I have an x-box (which I had to buy a cord with an HDMI connection on to connect to my old x-box), a DVD player, a TV (of course) all connected. The Denon A/V receiver also comes with a microphone to automatically adjust your speakers, which is nice. I am enjoying the Denon A/V receiver very much. One nice feature is that there is a volume indicator that appears momentarily on the TV screen.
A:AnswerYes, just plug the subwoofer cord into one of the two subwoofer pre-amp outputs and it will only send the signal, your standalone subwoofer will work fine.
A:AnswerWhat you are discribing with the Bose speakers you have is a 5.1 LR Fronts, LR Rears, Center and base 5 stations with the center and base in sharing the station front and center. The Denon has surround speaker connections that would feed the your Bose system. So the short answer, Yes..
A:AnswerMake sure you have chosen the correct channel line up options for the system. You may also want to ensure that your speaker wires are correct (+/-) connections.
