Can this be installed by someone without vast electrical training?

This receiver is pretty easy to hook up, especially if you are using HDMI connections from your Cable/Sat receiver and Blu-Ray etc.. The speaker hookups are likewise well described in the manual.

Yes and know, adding speakers and perhaps your cable box and a DVD player is not hard (HDMI wires). The more important part is performing the calibration check which does check if you have the speaker wires correctly connected - can take a few tries but if patient, you can do it.

Yes, all you news to do is hook up a few wires in the back- instructions come with wiring diagrams.

"Vast" ? Then, yes, you can do by yourself but you do need to have rudimentary knowledge to make the correct connections to correct ports. I also ordered banana plugs from Amazon which made the job even easier. On the other hand, if you have a teenager around, then problem solved. BTW, you didn't ask, but I've had this A/R receiver for about a year now (my daughter just installed one) and I "love" this receiver; I mean it; I love it. It is the new technology which also shows captions (sub-titles) on both Amazon streaming and Netflix.

I would somone with A/C or electrical experience. I have some experience with home repairs and was able to install it myself. It's really not difficult if you have a nearby outlet for power. John.

Yes...it can be used as a single pole or as a 3-way switch. Someone with basic electrical skills can install.

Yes. Has color coded wires so even a novice diy guy can put it in with no problem

My electrician installed it so I don't know for sure. But I don't believe it had any significant length of wiring and probably just had screw lugs to attach the wiring - so you'll likely have to provide your own wire.

No. It's a simple install that needs only a switch, and connection to 12V power and ground.

Yes. It is about the wiring which may not be long enough. A professional installer can do it. This has been a great product.

I ended up returning this because it required wiring that was beyond my skill set.

Hi Jennifer,The answer to your question is that if you have relatively basic plumbimg and electrical skills you can do this. If you have any questions or doubt, get someone who knows what they are doing to install. You dont want to save a few bucks and have your house burn down. That being said, I am a licensed power plant engineer and have been working with both plumbing and electrical for over 10 years, I installed my heater myself. What it boils down to is whether you are both comfortable and competent enough to do this.Good luck!

you need someone who is familiar with this product as it is far more complicated than other units. call the company and ask for the phone number of an authorized installer in your area. that's what i had to do.

Yes but you will need an electrical enclosure, outlets and safety equipment. There is an all in one unit on Amazon with a built in receptacle if you dont feel qualified to put this'd one into a system.

I Believe it would work very well. I would use it. I am not an expert or electrician.

Yes, there is also a relay and a lot of wires, all that you need to install them, some skill is required for the wiring.

No, not at all, just basic electrical knowledge. The instructions aren't real clear, but it's a good product.

No, it is recommendable to install by professionals, if not it may make some troubles in operation.

I would assume so but i'm sure you'd need an electrician to come out and switch some wiring.

Yes, you will need someone with an electricians background to connect the electrical leads to the existing home wiring.
