A:AnswerNO. I leave mine powered on 24x7 to drive speakers connected to my Amazon Echo Dot. It's always ready to play any music I ask for from my streaming service.
A:AnswerYes, you can operate all four speakers at the same time. It has plenty of power to drive all four at a high volume level.
You can also mix speakers of different Ohm specifications (from 6 Ohm to 16 Ohm), as long as the speakers on A are the same and the B speakers are the same.
A:AnswerHi RGB3,
Thank you for the inquiry! Speaker wires that are anywhere between 12 to 16 gauge are most commonly used for connecting speakers to an amplifier or an Audio/Video (A/V) receiver. A lower-gauge number indicates a thicker wire, while a higher-gauge number indicates a thinner wire. Speaker wires with lower-gauge numbers are better at carrying an amplified audio signal. When determining which wire gauge to use, consider how far away the speakers are from your amplifier or A/V receiver. Generally, for short speaker wire runs, a 16-gauge wire is sufficient. However, for longer speaker wire runs (to another room, for example), it is better to use a thicker, lower-gauge wire.
Hope this helps!

A:AnswerHi Geb,
Thank you for the inquiry! Yes, you can connect your turntable directly to the AV receiver. it supports phono in jacks so you can enjoy high quality sound of a turntable by connecting it to the receiver.
Enjoy the sweet sound of vinyl, or streaming from your digital music collection. The perfect match for music lovers seeking a stereo system with classic sound from all your music sources. And with the low-profile design, it’s sure to fit into conventional AV cabinets.
Regards,
David
A:AnswerBasically it’s speaking of speaker ohms say 8 ohms each so two speakers hooked to input A or A and B speakers set receiver to upper rating 6 ohms or greater. If using 4 ohm speakers set receiver to 6ohms or lower. I would not mix 8 ohm and 4ohm speakers. The speaker ohm output is on back of speakers.
A:AnswerIn other words, the pin connection is proprietary. I don't think there is currently a secondary manufacturer making replacement FM antennas for Sony receivers. Sadly, other manufacturers are doing the same thing. I just junked a Sharp shelf system, because the antenna socket failed, followed shortly thereafter by the plug-in for the headphones.
