A:AnswerHi Matt, Thanks for the inquiry! This receiver doesn't have a digital optical input, but it has 4 RCA audio IN and 1 audio OUT ports. And it also supports Phono input jacks for connecting a turntable. I'd suggest checking out the Sony STR-DH590 if you're looking for a receiver that supports digital optical input. Hope this helps!
Whether you choose to enjoy the warm sound of vinyl via the phono input, or stream music from your digital music collection, you’ve found a perfect match. Don’t forget the receiver’s A=B function lets you connect two pairs of speakers. You can easily switch between A or B or use them all together at the same time. When you factor in the low-profile design, we’re sure you’ve found the flexibility and performance you’ve been looking for!
Regards,
Sam
A:AnswerHi VoltageNewbie, Good question. The two types of outputs on this receiver are amplified for speakers or for headphones. There are no outputs that this receiver has that will directly connect to the speakers. You would likely need to look into a studio equipment. Hope this helps!

A:AnswerNo it only allows you to connect a Bluetooth device to have the sound play thru the receivers speakers. Like a phone, computer, mp3 player, and the like.
A:AnswerYes. You can select the OHMS in speaker setup. Keep on mind tho, that option is only available using the remote, you cannot do it on the receiver directly
A:AnswerHi there, Good question! It will work as long as the speakers are within the impedance range of 6-16 ohms. Hope this helps!

A:AnswerHi emmod72, Good question! When you connect all the speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms or higher, set “SP IMP.” to “8 OHM”. In other connections, set it to “6 OHM”. Hope this helps!
