Q: QuestionI need to replace my denon 1513 5.1 (2012) because the remote has stopped working and ive had no success finding a replacement. Im not tech saavy. If i buy this model to replace the 1513, will it just be "plug n play"?

Asked 5 years ago by Gav.

• A:Answer Yess it is fairly plug and play but it depends on what plug and play means to you. You will have to follow some easy instructions from the setup guide on the initial boot up of the reciever. Just make sure you have a HDMI hooked up from receiver to TV to see the on screen setup display.

Q: QuestionI will be hooking up a 5.1 system in my main entertainment area. I have 2 pairs of small speakers in separate areas/rooms using s speaker selection box - how can I do this with this Denon?

Asked 5 years ago by ttrainman.

• A:Answer You would have to put the 2 other rooms as well as your main rooms front left and right speakers on the switch box AND listen in stereo or all channel stereo mode. This isn’t ideal but it would work assuming your switch box has impedance matching built in.

Q: QuestionCan I hook up a CD player directly to this receiver. In your questions sections it states I will need to purchase an external phono pre-amp because the unit does not have a PHONO input. Is that true?

Asked 5 years ago by Pato.

• A:Answer 

  Hey Pato,

  A phono amp is only needed for a turntable that does not have one built-in. You will be able to connect your CD player to the unit via an analog RCA connection or an HDMI connection.
