A:AnswerYes it comes with one and a wire cable to subwoofer. There is a port for a second subwoofer but you will need a cable for it to run to receiver.
A:AnswerI have my TV connected via an HDMI cable (out) to my 5960. I have a fire stick, chromecast, and DVD player connected via HDMI (in) to my 5960.
You could connect the fire stick to the TV and then configure the TV to run sound back to the 5960 via an optical audio cable or other. I just like the setup where everything goes through my 5960 and the 5960 is the only device connected to my TV.
Hope that helps.
A:AnswerThe receiver can output to ONE TV via EARC HDMI. You can plug up to FOUR devices into the receiver (game systems, DVD players, etc.) via HDMI and switch input on the receiver rather than your TV.
BUUUUTTT - Unless your TV is capable of receiving an EARC HDMI signal, you won't be able to take advantage of the receivers HDMI inputs. Check your TV and see if one of your HDMI inputs is labeled "EARC." And double BUUUUTTTT - unless you have an HDMI 2.1 compatible TV, you won't be able get video at 4k 120hz / 120 fps.
