Rack Preamp Options

I had to read what 4K HDR meant. It's the problem for me trying to come up to current standards. Everytime I learn something, it changes.
Ah crap! it looks like it has it?

If you want to avail yourself of the widest dynamic range (video) then you can go the route ‘wolf was suggesting, however most modern TVs no longer output multi-channel audio out of their optical port, you will typically only get a stereo downmix. The current way to handle this is through ARC.

I’m not sure if the ARC feature on this Denon will actually work, (being a few years old the technology was a bit rough - definitely update your firmware when you get the AVR) but with a modern 4K rated HDMI cable between the Denon and the correct port on your TV you should be able to plug the 4K source directly into your TV and the full surround mix will return to the AVR via the TV/AVR HDMI link.
