Ordered a Marantz

Posted by Ozzie on November 16, 2023 at 10:44:46:
So I ordered a Marantz SR5014. I does all I want it to, plus more. I am not sure I care to run the video signal through it as video as it is currently is excellent. I just want the Marantz for surround sound, not video switching. Eventually I may set the Marantz up to do switching and control of audio and video.

At first, I'll run fiber to my little Schitt DAC from the TV, then go from the DAC to the Marantz RCA Analog inputs. Then run the Front L and R outputs to my big rig pre amp, as it is now. As the Pass has theater pass through the Marantz would control volume settings. If possible I'd have a video HDMI cable between the Marantz to the TV so I can do on screen setup, if it can be done that way.

Any comments on that config?
