Haven't really set it up yet but one thing I noticed is the remote does not have many options available, compared to the Pioneer Elite receivers. To be continued...... BTW your videos are technically outstanding and really informational. I know many you-tubers try to limit the time frame on the videos but I would encourage you not to do so. Thank you.

can you tell me how to assign front left/right to external amp or even the full 5 ground speakers. How do you chose pre out for those speakers. X3700 has a pre-out tab in speaker menu. But not the x3600h. X3600h only gives you pre-out options when setting up 11.1 speakers. (front and height only) Or is it automatic? When hooking up pre-out cables + trigger, and hooking up speakers to external amp... I am totally confused about this. Just bought a x3600 second hand. Thnx

@seanlacroix 4 года назад

The reason Outlaw labels the channels the way they do is for heat dissipation. If you are using all 5 channels or even just left and right the layout is to keep heat from building up on just one side.

That makes so much more sense!! Thanks for that Sean!

@Jedi2155 3 года назад

@@randyhunt1581 While it works when wired different as mentioned by the video but it does matter when it warms up because heat will impact the sound quality as temperature will shift how well the amps work. The left, center, and right channels are used much more the the surround speakers so they will generate more heat than the surrounds so you want to separate them for max heat disappation.

@zahidkm 4 года назад

Great video as always! Thanks a lot. I do have a question though. You are showing the physical connections here. Some configuration need to be changed on the AVR setting in speaker configuration menu. Would you please explain how you can reassign the front 2 channels to an external amp (lets say with a 2 channel amp) and use rest of the 7 channels (in a 5.1.4 setup) with this AVR's builtin amp? I read you can disconnect the internal amp completely for the front 2 channels when using pre-outs with an external amp. What is the added benefit of that separation? I just bought a X3600h and trying to see if I should add an external amp for my 5.1.4 setup mostly to give headrooms to my front 2 or 3 channels. TIA.

When you factor in external amplification into a home theater setup, does the inbuilt room correction software on the AVR work as intended to provide the necessary adjustments to each channel? Or does it only work when using only the AVR?

@ajaysinghaca 3 года назад

Good and simple explanation. However I’m having trouble getting a signal from the pre-outs on my Marantz SR6013. What settings do I need to tweak in the receiver? I want to use pre-out signals for the front stage (left, right & center) but I just cannot figure out how to get the pre-out RCA terminals to light up in the ‘Amp Assign’ menu. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

@pinoy1hitko 3 года назад

So what happens when you hook it up to a 5 channel amplifier, like the Outlaw 5000? Since it only lets you pre out 2 channels to disconnect the amplifier in the AVR, do you just lose the power in the AVR from the center/surround? I'm referring to hooking up the LCR + SL, SR. I saw audioholics review and they said only the higher models lets you fully disconnect all channels to pre-out mode, but didn't explain of what happens to the other channels hooked up to an external amp. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

@anastaciolopez6259 3 года назад

@HometheaterEnthusiast 4 года назад

Hi, if i'm using Basx500 with 4600H for a 7.2 setup, the remaining 2 channels i should use the speaker out from 4600H, so does it mean I will get a better 125W (80 from basX500) output from the avr speaker out ? So that its better to drive the front left and right with avr out ?

@DF-et4gs 4 года назад

Hey Channa, Looking at adding an external amp to my X4500H. Money is tight, so I'm looking at the Onkyo M-5010. The Denon is rated at 125w, two channels driven. Would it be safe to say it would be around 20-30w with 9 channels driven? The Onkyo puts out 75w per channel, and I was considering connecting it to my front towers. Would you recommend that, or powering one of the sets of heights? Thanks in advance!!

@baohoaily 3 года назад

@Techno Dad - I know you mentioned it earlier in the video, but the manual (to my knowledge) didn't explicitly mention it, it only ever mentions adding a 2 channel amp to enable 11.x, or attaching amps to all the pre-outs for up to 11.x ... so is it confirmed for 11.x (7.1.4) we can simply add a 2 to or more channel amp to the appropriate pre-outs and have the AVR handle the rest?. ie a 7 channel external amp for the floor speakers, and have the AVR handle the 4 height speakers? thank you.

I bought a 2 Channel Sony STR-DH190 and plan to connect my front preouts to the Sony to drive my FL and FR Pioneer Towers. I dont have a trigger cable and I was hoping to keep the power and volume in sync using the Harmony Smart Hub Remote. Any tips on how I can calibrate the sound ? I was hoping to use my phone as a sound meter , play music in multi channel stereo mode, note and adjust the volumes for the sony. Once I have the reference volume I can add that volume level as a step whenever I turn my amp on/off. Do you think that will work ? Also does the x3600H have variable pre outs ? Appreciate your inputs.

@EQtown 3 года назад

Could you connect the AVR to two external Power Amps? Eg, one for the front speakers and another for the surrounds? If one power amp has a trigger out then that could surely turn on the second one?

@TechnoDad 3 года назад

Great question! It depends on the AVR and amps. if the AVR has two trigger-outs, then one can go to each amp. But, if the AVR has only one trigger out, you need to find amps that have a trigger in and a trigger out to go to the second amp.

Hey bud, what if I want to biamp my Paradigm mains and run a 7(2).2.2 setup on my x7200wa (11 channels with external) instead of 7.2.4?. Currently I’m using the 9 onboard to drive my 7.2.2 setup. I’m pretty sure the x3600h can biamp as well. I have biamped my Paradigm Monitor p90 v1 in the past. One set drives the tweeter the other speaker cable set drives the midrange and the dual (sub) woofers are solely driven by the internal amps If I unplug the power, those drovers do nothing whatsoever.

As far as connection goes, from the pre-amp out on your AVR to the inputs on the amplifier; output of the amplifier to the speaker. Hope this makes sense. Some AVRs allow you to bi amp from unused channels, such as the x4600 and new higher end AVRs. I'd recommend playing around with the speaker settings in your AVR before you invest in an amp. If you have a good AVR, I'm hoping you have good speakers to complement. Check out another video in this channel about bi-wiring and bi-amping and how to. Makes quite the difference in audio transmission qualities. Good luck and welcome to audiophile level listening and configs!

Great way of explaining Channa! I have a xpa2 for L&R and yamaha v2085. I hooked up as you have mentioned 5.2.2 set up. Do you need to change any settings in the receiver for it to work?

@TechnoDad 3 года назад

Probably not for that avr. Are you getting sound from all speakers with the Emotiva connected?

@mailtoashishbhatia 3 года назад

@@TechnoDad Yes, I connected it today. Wanted to check about the settings before I connected. They work very well! Thanks for the help Channa!

I'm asking for help! I have exactly that AV Denon 5200w that you showed in the video and I am not happy with the sound in stereo mode. I would like the sound to be more present and defined in a quieter way of listening. The speakers I use are B&W 685 s2, 100w at 8 ohms, 87db sensitivity. What should I do: if I need to change the speakers, which ones do you recommend or get an external amplifier and which ones do you recommend? Thank you!!!

Hey whats up I have been watching your channel for awhile now, even though I don't comment but you do a great job, really appreciate your videos, learn alot too. My question is can I run a 5.2.4 dolby Atmos with this receiver Onkyo TX-RZ820 THX-Certified 7.2 channel If I add a power amplifier to it. Thanks

@TheHoboWithAShotgun 3 года назад

I have the new(ish) Yamaha RX-V6A which has 2 preouts (just for front L/R) so when I connect them to an external amp which if I do would be my Onkyo HT-R695 would it even be possible does it need “pre ins”? Or just the ins on it ty I have at least a couple Onkyos receivers laying around in my house so figured if possible out to use as an external amp if I can

@arunbafna8537 4 года назад

I am using my old age 5.1 avr as external amp as it has 5.1 pre amp I have bought denonavrx3600h Have connect 4atmos channel to my old Yamaha 5.1 amp, it's working very good, is it correct what I have done

@CompetitionChris 3 года назад

If I add external amplifier for my left and right front speakers, do I have to change anything in the receiver settings? I have the 3600 but I get confused with the amp assign. And if I want to run 7.1.4 but have the external amplifier hooked up to my front LR speakers, how do I change that. Because in the manual it just says you can hook up an external amplifier to the height 2 pre outs for 11 Channel. I've never used pre outs or external amplifiers before so sorry if I'm such a newbie

@georgefremd1802 2 года назад

Can you add 2 amps to a denon 6700h. I was looking to ad a 3 channel for the front 3. Then down the road move my satilites from my receiver to a 4 channel amp so I can hook up height channels to the receiver. I think that model has two trigger inputs so I wasnt sure

Im finally getting around to adding the basx A3 or the A2 with my 3600H,yeah late to the party. I am running a 5 channel setup with 2 subs and really want the A3 but from what I understand the preamps dont disconnect completely. If true which amp would make more sense?

@joemangao3477 Год назад

I have Denon avr-x3400h , I connected my power amp to the front channels, does it automatically disable the internal amp in the receiver. Do I have to do anything in the set up?

@mandoroo2788 4 года назад

Hi, I have the 3600h, connected to a definitely noticed difference dynamics but volume is the same do I calibrate it different or leave it up to auddsey and I'm at 75 and still feel it needs more power

@TechnoDad 4 года назад

You can re calibrate if you want. However, if you do this, you will still turn up the volume to the same amount if your volume level is in dB.

@secuuda 4 года назад

I enjoy your videos, I am considering purchasing the denon avr x3600h receiver but not sure about if it will handle the new polk audio legend L series like the L200 and L600 speakers which are 4 ohms. it seems to be hard to get to Denon to get the question answered if it will indeed handle the speakers. it shows impedance 4 to 16 but most of the channels show 8 ohms. Or should I look at another model or manufacture to handle these speakers?

@TechnoDad 4 года назад

I can ask them.

I was initially planning on a 5.2.4 HT but changed it to 7.2.4. I bought the 3600h but am short of two channels. Can I add one of these amps to my AVR instead of purchasing a brand new receiver? I have the Def Tech BP 9080x towers for L&R, CS9080 Center, SR9080 for side surrounds, DT8LCR for back surrounds and 4 8 inch Sonance height speakers. TIA

@Coolplastictoys 3 года назад

Hi Techno Dad dumb question but in your first set up with just the two left and right RCA in the amp using the same exact Dennon receiver. The speakers go into the amp or the receiver?

@ywzhou 3 года назад

Have you ever noticed a difference between the RCA and XLR connectors? I tried amplifying my front L/R on my X3700H on a Behringer A800 and there was a horrible feedback. My center channel hiss was very audible, and I assume this was a ground loop issue even though the A800 and the X3700H were on the same outlet...

@TechnoDad 3 года назад

I haven't tried XLR as I don't have a process/pre-amp. Try a ground lift on the amp and see what's up.
