QuestionWhat is meant by pass throughDo not understand pass through on receivers ?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer This means you can connect you Blu Ray player, Satellite, or Game console to the receiver via HDMI and the receiver channels the same resolution video signal back out and into the TV. You'll notice on the back of the receiver there are multiple HDMI inputs for devices and 1 HDMI output for the TV. It's meant to streamline your device sound options. So essentially, The video signal is "Passing Through" the receiver to the TV. Hope that helps.

QuestionIf you have old full range speakers, will the 5 speakers (especially the front pair) output the full audio range without need of a subwoofer?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The age of the speakers do not matter as long as they are in good shape. The only reason anyone would want a subwoofer is for bass. If you feel you are getting good quality low bass tones from your existing speakers then you my friend are good to go. On the other hand if you feel the need to actually feel the rumble such as when let's say an explosive scene occurs like in action movies or when listening to music with deep low bass frequencies as is found in most rap music and your insides rattle then a subwoofer is for you.

QuestionWILL THIS WORK WITH SONO SOUNDBAR & DIFINITIVE 600 5.1 SPEAKERS
Asked 9 years ago by JMS.
- Answer It will work with the soundbar if it has RCA inputs. I would not recommend using a soundbar with a receiver. They are really two different worlds.

QuestionUSB Connection & Apple ProductsI purchased this, intending to plug my iPod Classic (no BT) into the USB port but the VSX-530 didn't detect the iPod. I looked in the user manual and read that the USB connection doesn't work with iPods or iPhones. Has anyone discovered a work around for using the USB connection with non-Bluetooth capable Apple devices?
Asked 9 years ago by Thovarf.
- Answer I would suggest you just use the Audio in AUX input on the back and connect it to your phone that way. Just buy a cheap AUX to headphone jack cord from any big box store and that should give you the desired result.

QuestionCan I hook up a turntable, CD player, subwoofer, and graphic equalizer, along with speakers
Asked 9 years ago by Rob.
- Answer In order for a turntable to work with this receiver you must have a preamp, if it's an older turntable it will not work unless you have a preamp, some of the the newer turntables have a preamp built in but not the older ones.

QuestionCan I hook up phono and a CD player
Asked 9 years ago by Rob.
- Answer An older turntable needs a preamp, this receiver doesn't have a preamped input for a turntable, many of the newer receivers don't have one. You would have to buy an external preamp for an older turntable, some of the newer turntables have a built in preamp.
