A:AnswerHi there, We recommend a speaker system that supports 6 to 16 ohms to be connected to this AV receiver. Unfortunately, any soundbar will not work with this unit. The STRDH590 doesn't have the capability to output sound to your soundbar. You may want to consider checking this model, STR-DH190 Bluetooth stereo receiver which has an audio analog output for an active speaker or soundbar connection. Thanks! -Jess
A:AnswerYou could use your other equipment that has a usb jack and then run that threw the receiver you can also buy a adapter type cable that plugs into the back of your receiver the usb on back of receiver is for charging only good luck
A:AnswerHi Coop, Thank you for your interest in the STRDH590. Yes, you can connect your turntable, TV, and DVD player to this unit. This receiver is equipped with 4 HDMI inputs so it can handle all of your devices. Also, to connect a turntable that only has a PHONO output jack, you need to connect a phono equalizer (not supplied) between the turntable and this receiver. Hope this helps! -Sam

A:AnswerSorry, this turned out to be my HDMI source that happened to start intermittently going out when I switched to the new stereo.
Took forever to figure it out, because it was intermittent, and it happen to start when I put in the new stereo.
I’m all set now.
