I have a stereo amp with pre amp and 2 good speakers: can I use the amp for listen music and denon for listen movie with the same speakers?

If I understand your question, you want to use your existing AMP to POWER your speakers, and the DENON as a pre-amp to process the sound. If that is the case, you can do just that. Using the DENON TO PROCESS THE SOUNDS INTO VARIOUS FORMATS INCLUDING STEREO. if you are only using 2 speakers you can only truly take advantage of the Stereo modes. Add more speakers, and you will benefit from the other formats such as master HD etc. where sounds are discrete, and speaker specific depending upon the blu ray sound track. I hope that helps.

Yes, I ran it that way with my Denon receiver for an extra pair. It has RCA inputs in the back.

A single RCA (one connection on each end) cable will connect the LFE (low frequency effects) channel (Sub Out) from the Denon to the amp. However, just to mention, you can also use a stereo RCA (2 RCA connectors on each end) to connect the Preamp Out of the Denon to the sub amp, which might come in handy depending on the model of Denon that you have.

You can but you would be hearing the same music on both at the same time. You would need an appropriate cable split connector..........

I don't believe it will work as part of a surround sound setup. The input is optical and so I don't believe you can setup the amp to output via the optical port the centre speaker.

Shouldn't matter as long as your stereo system is pushing 8 ohms output. The only thing you might notice is different sets of speakers might have different volume levels when playing them together.

Assuming your 2 speakers in each zone are in stereo, no. For 6 zones, you would need 12 channels (2x6), and this amp is only an 8 channel amp. If however you only had four zones, yes--this amplifier has individual inputs for each 8 channels but keep in mind that is does not provide switching so whatever device (input) is plugged into that 'zone' will be the one played--you can not switch inputs without plugging and unplugging cables in the back. If you wanted easy switching, you would need a seperate pre-amp/switcher kind of device to do that. (And to clarify for others, you can also plug in stereo inputs and the amp can internally cascade the same signal throughout all 8 channels (in stereo x4).

The short answer, yes. If you look at the spec sheet for this amp you will see that it IS rated to run a pair of 2 ohm speakers in stereo. With a 2 ohm load the amp is rated for 150w x 2 RMS. This exceeds the ratings on your speakers. If you just turn the gain down a bit and keep them at reasonable levels you should be fine.

I used to have a sono's amp that powered both speakers but it wasn't loud enough for me. I replaced with a Denon amp and just use a sono's box for my music collection.

Yes, just get a pre-amp with a digital connector, pretty simply for any aux connections.

Yes you can. It is a easy set up. Right now I have 3 amps and they are used for my theater. It has RCA input and aux input

No, you will need a phono pre amp in order to get louder and cleaner sound. I just got a cheap Pyle pre amp and it works great to connect to ky Denon receiver.

The amp has four pair of RCA Stereo jacks on the rear and a standard 3.5mm stereo jack on the front, for a total of five inputs. Provided the receiver has the ability to output to another amp or device this should not be a problem. As an alternative, if the receiver has a headphone jack, you could make a direct connection to the 'Aux-In' jack on the front of the amp. Finally, I imagine that the receiver must have speaker output terminals which could easily be attached to some old RCA cables and connected to a pair of the rear inputs.

Yes you can...Use inputs AUX 1, AUX 2 or CD....Make sure your speakers are rated at 4ohm and between 60 to 120 watts for best sound

Thanks very much for your question. They are both wonderful sounding pieces. I personally prefer the Denon. Thanks again!

Yes, you can even configure this for just 2 speakers, with or without a subwoofer. However, the Onkyos are plagued with problems. Check out the Yamaha, more expensive but more versatile and reliable.

I have actually listened to both and I'd have to say the the denons I bit more powerfull with the amp turned on. The clarity is great and good quality product. At under 200 it's a steal.
