Q: QuestionIs it possible to connect tape deck to this receiver, along with CD player and phono?

Asked 4 years ago by Confused.

• A:Answer On the rear of the amp there are several jacks where other devices can be attached, although a tape deck isn't specifically identified, I'm sure doing a little process of elimination plugging in and out, you'll soon find out if a tape deck is compatible.

Q: QuestionCan Alexa work with this item? Are hookup directions included?

Asked 4 years ago by jack.

• A:Answer I don’t know about Alexa specifically because I don’t use it. But if Alexa uses Bluetooth then you should be able to pair it to the receiver. I have my iPhone paired and stream via Bluetooth all the time. And yes, the owner’s manual includes instructions for pairing Bluetooth-enabled devices.

Q: QuestionWill this hook up to my smart tv

Asked 4 years ago by Hotrod.

• A:Answer Yes. I have my receiver hooked up to my Smart TVs for headphone audio and external audio via an optical/RCA converter. It works well, especially if you have multiple Smart TVs in a room where you can switch the respective audio channel through each TV in that room for audio.
