A:AnswerHi, as long as you've got space on the top, you can store it easily, you can even remove the round feet on the bottom, but it must have a way of venting out to the top, to prevent it from over heating, and with the right side angle connections, it can have very little room in the back.
A:AnswerThis receiver is capable of receiving audio and transmitting audio via Bluetooth. You can plug in a turntable and or a computer via usb or various ways. If the computer is capable of sending audio via Bluetooth you can send it to the receiver that way as well.
A:AnswerI had a initial set up learning curve for the Bluetooth, but once I figured it out, it was a snap, and now connects every time, go to your phone settings, select bluetooth, then hold the BT button on your remote until it pairs. Be sure to use the 2.4 wifi, as the 5G would not connect, the 2.4 is flawless every time.
A:AnswerAn open box is the same as a new one, the 3 yr manufacturer warranty begins once purchased, and I recommend the geek squad total tech plan gives an exclusive 2 yr replacement or repair if defective. I just had my LX305 replaced after the 2 mos. return period policy, also total tech extends the return period to 2 months if not satisfied with the product. I've upgraded within this 2 mo return period under this policy. I purchased a Sony soundbar open box with substantial savings and it was a great bargain. Geek Squad stands behind the products they sell.
A:AnswerNo. Not on the lx-505. The regular Dirac did make corrections in the bass if you allow it to. But only for one sub channel as the lx-505 splits a single sub channel in two.
