I have a fair and simple question for any person who had pirchased this item already.. Amamzon had just shipped mine but I should have tried to find out this answer to my questiom first..
here goes..
I am hooking up my “dvd recorder” to this .
I would like to know If I do it this way and hook it up to the pioneer can I still in fact…
play my Tv and dvd recorder to watch a movie at night and keep this receiver OFF ??
see at night I like to watch TV but dont want to hear it in stereo at 12 midnight!!
if this is not possible I am going to have to try something else..this is a great receiver but it might not be the one for me now.
if someone can answer me that would really help me.. Thanks in advance.
P.S I will have a review of this receiver very soon to be continued…
UPDATE —
I want to first thank everyone for replys on this matter.. I just now tried this item and found its just “not for me ” so I am returning it back to Amaazon..
it does get very HOT I only ran it for an hour ..also I own more equipment that does not hook up to this and I dont want to part with any of my things right now to make this fit in my life.. for example..I still own a” mini disc recorder” and turntable.. I would probably keep the turntable and would have to get rid of my mini disc recorder in which I am just not ready to get rid of yet..
also the same issue with the DVD recorder audio ..( please read before this update it will fill you in )
for the person that answered me before..yes the way you told it to me was in fact the same way I have it hooked up to my old receiver which defeats the prupose of having this one..so I am keeping what I have ..I am happy
anyhow just not happy with this item..wish I could give it less stars good luck with whoever has this..

This receiver is pretty awesome, except that the bass isn’t that healthy. Kind of zero bass actually. Might be my speakers though. I have an old bose 5.1 and the subwoofer is connected by all the cables and not to the sub-out. I had an old sony reciever and it had no problem putting out deep bass, but the center speaker output went out so i go this reciever. Connections are easy, sound is still clear at very loud volumes, and the remote will control anything. Great deal, but until I get a new sub the bass is lacking.

This is an excellent receiver for the money with a few caveats.
Remote is difficult to use. It is very long with some important keys (channel and Play/Pause etc. ) down low requiring two hands to balance it.
I have a projector and not a TV and have not been able to assign the TV buttons to my Cable box.
Does not multi-task well – Unable to listen to the radio while playing a video for example.
Instruction manual is not organized well. Why does volume say -36 db for example?
The sound is very good but radio reception is weak.
HDMI inputs are plentiful.
Video upconversion appears to work.
I am disappointed in the Auto Level Control. What does Effect setting mean in regard to ALC? I am not sure that this feature works and why do I have to choose ALC or Surround Sound? I just want to keep commercials from blasting me out of the room.
USB connection is great but there should be one in back also for a semi-permanent installation of an MP3 device. Front inputs are for temporary inputs.

This unit is ok for the price in its catagory. The sound is clear but lacks a little bass. One of the problem I noticed is that when you have the volume to -10db or so, the unit shuts itself off from time to time when playing high dynamic classical music. Not sure it is a problem with the unit or it is a protection for the unit. The iPod connection is good, but the cable is just too short so you can’t put your iPod too far away. The remote control looks and feels cheasy. The other thing is that the unit gets very hot in short period of time so you need to place the unit in a open area.
