QuestionMy smart tv only has a toslink output and it seems to only output bitstream for any internet source such as Netflix or Youtube, even if it is set to output pcm. Will the Yamaha receiver process a bitstream signal via its toslink input?
Asked 8 years ago by niws.
- Answer I thought PCM was pure bits... However, if this helps, I had to play with the SPDIF Output setting on my DVD to get sound, and it played on both PCM and "RAW".

QuestionWill this work with 30 year old Yamaha 3-way acoustic suspension 8 ohms speakers? The suggested amplifier power is minimum 10 watts and maximum 100 watts. The speakers sound magnificent but the AV-34 stereo amplifier is beginning to have issues.
Asked 9 years ago by Kat.
- Answer Absolutely! This thing defaults to 8-ohm, and I'm using even older Cambridge-made Acoustic Research speakers for the front channels. (Plus, it's nominal max power rating is 100Watts...) Go for it.

QuestionCan you get Bluetooth speakers for this receiver to eliminate wire? Using it for an outside theater and don't want people snagging wires and pulling thing down. If so what speakers do you recommend?
Asked 9 years ago by KOB54.
- Answer No only wired speakers. The Bluetooth option is just one of the inputs to connect your phone or other sound source to it like a Bluetooth speaker. You cannot connect bluetooth speakers directly to this receiver.

Questionwill this AUTOMATICALLY deciphers the type of sound without having too program it (ie DTS,Dolby) and spreads it to my 5.1 bose speaker system that I will connect making the BEST selection for the type of music or videos or must I program
Asked 9 years ago by jerry.
- Answer Once you have made your choices for various input-types, it DOES automatically switch between Dolby Digital Surround and either ProLogicI or II or DTS or 2CH or 5CH Stereo when the incoming programming changes... E.G. A mono or pure stereo movie will be the latter, while a modern commercial will switch to full surround. Hope this answers your question.
