Question: What do I need to do get it to use   inputs beside HDMI?I've tried cd and dvd inputs and nothing happens.
Document: There are seven HDMI inputs, and perhaps the coolest feature of the AVR-X4000 is that you can run three of the inputs simultaneously. This basically means if you have an Xbox in the living room, a blu ray player in the bedroom, and a turntable on the back porch, you can access each one at the same time without losing a single bit of quality. I've tried this exact scenario and it works like an absolute charm.
When I change the sub setting, it changes all inputs - why not separate setting for each input? I like to use Internet radio, and for some reason, this receiver can only save 4 favorites. I would suggest allowing the numbered keypad to save and retrieve additional stations would help.If you do not need the 3 zones and the X32 is not crucial, then save your money and get a less expensive model.I purchased the refurb from the supplier listed on Amazon.
My old receiver definitely was serviceable while turned up high, but this Denon handles even better, and could easily take an even louder volume. It supports 5.1, 7.2, and 9.2 provided you have another amp to use with it. Simply put, the AVR-X4000 will be all the power you will ever need for sound.I have also been utilizing the streaming capabilities it has with my iPad 3 and iPhone 4, and I've had great success.
I use only High end cabling, nothing ridiculous, each of my HDMI Cables cost in the range of $40 each along with my speaker cabling costing around $80 for the front pair (L & R) and totaling another $100 for Sub, Center Channel, and Rear Wiring which is all done in the ceiling when I renovated the living room 15 years ago.
I previously had a Denon AVR-789 that I bought from Circuit City when they closed. I knew the name and needed to upgrade for the 3D HDMI/Ethernet pass through. This new receiver is heads and tails above the old one.Finally the HDMI connections work properly. There are enough inputs and outputs to handle everything that I do including my Skype HD camera.The set up was easy. It took less than 30 minutes to get everything going.
Not feeling like cranking it up to 11? You can use the HDMI pass-through and not run the amplifier. It's a nice feature for late nights when you don't need your subwoofer(s) shaking your house down to the foundation.With the future-proofing of 4K video compatibility, I see this receiver being a staple in my home theater setup for years to come. I love it! !
That is the only problem scene that I noticed with DSX everything else was fine. So for movies I'll stick with NeoX.My wife and I use z2+3 all day almost every day for music, podcasts and news on the radio. The one thing that is still driving me crazy has to do with using zone 2. My z2 and z3 are set up for audio only using the pre-outs. I only have one TV and don't need HDMI anywhere but the TV room.
I was upgrading from a 6+ year old Denon AVR-3803 that lacked HDMI. I purchased more than I need as my new apartment has a deck so at some point I hope to use the mutli zone features to play  audio and video up there.The audessy features are great. Sound much better than what I came up with doing the calibration manually.One sour point is the unit recently bricked after a firmware upgrade. I got a DSP error during the upgrade.
This does not happen with z3. This happens with any source including the tuner. As far as I can tell I have all z2 HDMI options turned off. I know that the X4000 will turn on main zone and switch it to the network sources if those are selected from z2-3 but is this supposed to happen when z2 is power cycled? I really hope we get a fw update to deal with this nonsense.
I've had the unit two weeks now and have given it a serious break in, listening to every type of music and Blu ray. I still haven't tried every feature, however, I do unreservedly recommend this AV receiver.
Answer: You may need to go into setup and identify which inputs a given source is supposed to be using. CD should only be using standard audio cables. DVD might be set to HDMI, but you may need to specify Component/Composite.
