QuestionWhat kind of amp would you recommend for this stereo I want more power to speakers I have the tall klipsch reference speakers plus center and two smaller reference bookshelves when I play music with stereo it sounds horrible very flat not nice at all
Asked 6 years ago by Morepowr.
- Answer You should select an amp that is rated for the amount of power that the speakers can handle. On another note, if you are using dual zone then an amp would come into play. If you are just playing music then consider your output mode. No what you decide music is two channels (stereo) left and right regardless of the amp.

QuestionIs the preamp sub outputs full frequency range or just low frequencies? I would like to connect an external amp and need a full frequency range preamp output.
Asked 6 years ago by IvyMike.
- Answer
  Hey IvyMike,
  
  The subwoofer pre-outs are not full range, they are LFE pre-outs. The AVR-X3600H and higher models offer speaker pre-outs with full-range capabilities.

QuestionWhich HDMI out do I use for the best picture the Arc out or the one that is labeled 4K ? Or does it matter would they be the same ?
Asked 6 years ago by Alton.
- Answer If your TV has an HDMI port labeled ARC or eARC(enhanced ARC), then use that one to connect it to your AV receiver. If it does not have either of these, then any other HDMI port will work for a non-ARC (or non-eARC) HDMI port on the receiver.

QuestionCan I hook up 2 TV's to watch at the same time. Example one in living-room and another in kitchen. So we can watch the same program in both rooms.
Asked 6 years ago by Rick.
- Answer Always wanted to try this ever since i found that it has two output ports, so thanks for giving me a reason! Yes, it outputs to two TVs at the same time, with no lag as far as i can tell. I couldn't seem to get it to output two separate signals, like i can with the Zone 2 speaker setup it didn't like that one TV was 4k while the other was 1080p when running a 3840x2160 signal from my computer (4k TV displayed a zoomed in picture) ran fine with a 1080p signal from my PS3
