A:AnswerYou cannot hook it up to tv for sound to come out of the sound bar. You can, however, hook it directly up to your sound bar with an optical cable. Or you could get some cheap bookshelf speakers and hook your tv up to this with an optical cable to have sound come out of the bookshelf speakers.
A:AnswerThis probably isn’t the way to go, other than for the vinyl player as it’s one of the only ones with a phono preamp, though depending on your phono player it may have a built in preamp anyway. It’s 2 channels total for wired speakers, which your Sonos will not work for. There is no line audio out to feed your Sonos amp so you will need regular bookshelf or floor standing speakers. As far as the TV and DVD, you wouldn’t get surround sound, just basic stereo (left and right). If you’re wanting surround sound I’d go with another model. This one is basically for music.
In my setup I have this just for playing vinyls and it sounds great, but my movies play through a sound bar with surround sound.
A:AnswerI bought a 3.5mm mini to rca cable adapter and plugged the rca part into the Sony receiver’s RCA input 1 plugs then plugged the other end into my tv’s headphone jack output and it works great.
A:AnswerYou disconnect the one you don’t want connected, then connect the device that you want to play from to the receiver. You can only play from one connected device at a time. So you can have 10 devices saved to connect to the receiver but only one can be actively connected and playing from the receiver. Hope that helps.
A:AnswerYes, one input is dedicated to phono. You have 3 more you can connect to, the 4th is in and out. The manual shows you how to program the component in to the selector. The manual gives a lot of info. on this unit.
