In the standby mode if my cable box is connected to the UMC 200 and my TV hooked to the HDMi output of the Emotiva will the signal pass through ?

Yes. There is a setting that needs to be enabled. I use it frequently for casual watching that doesn't need the full audio system playing.

I have never tried to do that and can think of no reason to do it, although it might be possible I have never tried it and cannot answer for sure.

I found that plugging the unit into a power strip on the same outlet as the cable box was a problem. A different electrical outlet solved the issue.

Hi, I have my Emotiva UPA-700 connected to a Marantz SR6007 Home Theater AV Receiver. I felt that the sound is not louder, but it is clearer. I tested it to see if it was worth keeping the Emotiva. I felt it was worth it. Also, as an FYI - Since I have 4 ohm impedance Dynaudio speakers I decided to go with a separate amp to protect my receiver. The thing that surprised me the most was my volume level is at about the 2/3rd level. (With my earlier Yamaha receiver without any amp, it was usually at the 1/4th level).

Yes. I have a cable box, blue ray, and a video game attached. When you power up a unit, it will automatically switch. It gets its power from the hdmi connection. Lovin it so far.

I've had a similar issue with my HDMI connection to the Cable Box provided by Time Warner Cable. Were you able to figure out what was wrong?

Tom, Like you, have a Samsung HD cable box from TW. Connected HDMI to my Pioneer Plasma. Problem I am having is when changing HD channels picture is scrambling for about 5-10 secs before coming in. Analog stations change without a problem, just in HD. I switched out the box twice, same problem. Had a techinician come over, he switched out the box again, same problem. Put the component connection and works fine. Tells me it's the monitor. Pioneer says that's ridiculous, it's the cable box. I have been reading numerous threads about this problem. It's the TW cable box, it does not have the proper software to support HDMI. You have to call TW up and complain and see if they will fix the problem. R

I had comcast and bluray player hooked to it but it wouldn't automatically switch even when I turned off the bluray player completely. Tried with cable box, it won't either but I think that was because the cable box is always on standby.

It has 7 channels. You need a preamplifier. With Emotiva UMC 200 you have two additional rooms in stereo and you may use for múltiple reproduction. They don't have auto power. You must select what you want. If you use a tigger cable between Emotivas you can switch on and of both. Each zone has different volumen control by UMC 200. That's all. They make a wonderful couple. Sound very clear and pure. According to your set up with the UMC 200 the UPA 700 could be a tigger, so be careful with your speakers. They are not to begin.

For safety, ask an electrician. As to signal interference, I have HDMI, CAT6, audio coax, my center channel speaker wire and a Kinect going through the hole, and I am not experiencing any noticeable interference.

Signal source is Antenna. I will try the optical cable. Thanks for the response.

Thanks for the feedback, just to update the situation I bought a more expensive HDMI cable made by Belden, same problem no signal when using HDMI. I was going to switch the box as well but I guess this is useless. I guess all you can do is complain until verizon fios comes to my area

This will explain the analog pass through:http://www.ezdigitaltv.com/Analog_Pass-Through.html

No, not if the receiver is totally OFF. It must be in Standby Mode. Setup allows you to decide which input will then activate the Standby Pass Mode and then that signal will be sent to the TV. Standby Pass Mode does deactivate the Sleep Timer Function and the Auto Standby is disabled.

Just add a note, if you run an HMDI cable to the closest TV and a coax to the longer run TV, I have found some HD shows will not play on the coax tv unless you unplug the HMDI.

ya..that's what I thought and I do have the cable box connected to the TV with component cables, connected to input 2 of TV, along with the HDMI output of the receiver connected to input 1 of TV.I had a Yamaha 465 that did allow the pass thru when the receiver was turned off. But I do like this SR707 alot better.....better sound, more power and more inputs.Bottom line.... no big deal.....

you hook it up to the audio out on the tv, it should work normally, it does not have anything to do with the signal from cable or satellite.

I have it connected to my receiver, and thence to my speakers. I can't say authoritatively, but it seems to me to send music to the receiver as well as an HDMI cable. But let me emphasize that if you walk in front of or obstruct the direct line of sight in any way, the sound will stutter and skip, whether it's music or TV/movie.
