Yeah, I asked where may I connect an iPod. Justin answered, "It has Bluetooth". Well, I don't, just an iPod, 7th Generation, 256 GB. So does anyone know where I may attach this iPod?? Cheers and many thanks,

plug it in to the Media Channel, RCA connectors.
I use a switch box, too, so i plug the computers, the ipod, the ipad to the switch box and the switch box to the Media Channel, so I can switch between sources from my desk.
Not sure how the Denon handles any enhancement from stereo IN to 5.1 out. Sounds great though, really happy with the Denon.

Does this only send a signal to the subwoofer or is there an amp for a passive subwoofer?

Sub Out is Signal only, wants a powered sub on the other end of the wire.
I like this Sony, $150: SA-CS9
