QuestionHow do you get more sounds from the rear & saround speakers
Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Run the setup that came with the microphone. Afterwards you may be able to adjust each channel separately under audio menu. The rear will not be as loud regardless unless you place the unit in five channel stereo. Hope that helps.

QuestionIs the powered USB port on the back switched or always on? (I asked this previously but the Sony answer isn't correct.) I'm asking about the USB port on the rear upper left, labeled 'Power Supply' 5v 1amp. Is that port switched or always on.
Asked 3 years ago by JoshP.
- Answer Just checked. It’s always on. Quickly went through the settings to see if it was configurable and did not find an obvious option to control the USB port.

QuestionWhat does HP 2CH mean while the receiver is on but not producing sound?
Asked 1 year ago by Dann.
- Answer Hi LienaD thanks for your question. The HP 2CH means Headphone(2ch) sound field. This sound field plays back 2-channel audio signals without adding any surround effect. Sound from monaural and multi-channel audio signals are output after being converted into a 2-channel signal. Please check page 41 of the manual for more details: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/4726/890436b47fd2ffcc4003f34dc5f2592c/47269051M.pdf Regards, Erin

QuestionCan I connect my DVD player and Amazon Firestick to this receiver? I also have a blue tooth hearing aid booster. These are the three main items that would be connected to the receiver.
Asked 1 year ago by Newbie.
- Answer Hi Newbie, thanks for your questions. First, the Bluetooth function of the receiver doesn't have a transmitter mode function (enjoy listening to audio from AV devices connected to the receiver via BLUETOOTH headphones/speakers). Therefore, connecting a Bluetooth hearing aid booster is not recommended. Second, you can connect your DVD player. Lastly, you can connect your firestick to one of the HDMI port of the receiver. Give your home entertainment system a cinematic upgrade. The powerful 7.2 channel receiver supports the latest three-dimensional surround sound audio formats including Dolby Atmos and DTS: x, drawing you into the middle of the action you see on screen. And with 4K Ultra HD picture quality, and Dolby Vision, that’ll transform your viewing experiences, you’ll enjoy an immersive theater-like experience in the comfort of your own home. Hope this helps.
