Yes, you can turn on your TV and the receiver, using the remote that comes with the Sony STR-DH790 7.2-Channel A/V Receiver. You would still need the Sony STR-DH790 remote to be able to change your input source, or to change your sound mode, and other settings.

Hi Isaac, Thanks for the inquiry. Unfortunately, the STRDH790 Home receiver does not support 8K pass-through. The DH790 receiver supports the latest three-dimensional surround sound formats including Dolby Atmos and DTS: X, drawing you into the middle of the action you see on screen. And with 4K Ultra HD picture quality, and support for all major HDR formats including Dolby Vision t, your viewing experience will be transformed. Thanks and regards, -Craig

this receiver has 7 different output for speakers and 2 subwoofer channels. Which will allow you use 7.2 (the 2 being 2 subwoofer channels vs a typical 7.1) or 5.1.2 (I believe you could do a 5.2.2 if you wanted 2 subs)

The Sony STR-DH790 7.2-Channel A/V Receiver BH #SOSTRDH790 is designed for use with a single subwoofer.

The Sony STR-DH790 7.2-Channel A/V Receiver (BH # SOSTRDH790) will not accept a +/- two conductor speaker wire +/- 2 conductor. An RCA subwoofer cable is necessary.

As long as your turntable table has a phono pre-amp out.

Hi Mark, thanks for your inquiry. We recommend using the supplied FM wire antenna (aerial) to connect to this receiver. Hope this helps! Erin
