can the HDMI output be plugged into a receiver to play mp3's and the like through a standard A/V receiver without wireless capabilities?

Hi, there. Quite frankly, this item was placed in my closet not too long after I purchased it. Afraid it didn't seem very compatible or useful and I can't recommend it or even answer you question (I say that because Amazon sent me a not asking if I could). I really seemed nothing more than a very limited hard drive. I much prefer the roku or my teradrive I have attached to my mac mini.

No problem connecting to a receiver. If your computer has a sound card, you could connect via phono outputs to your receiver. Also SPDIF if both have that plug.

Not that I know of. Works great for BT audio from devices. Get yourself a pair of SONY wireless headphones, their about $100 they go into left and right audio and have a wireless transmitter/charge cradle. The price point and performance of this receiver is a hidden gem in the market. You will love this receiver.

They have a standard aux output and do not have wireless capabilities built in. That being said I don't personally own a home receiver but you might be able to pick something up from radio shack or a similar store that expands their use. Hopefully that helps.

You DO NEED a reciever to deliver the signal to the individual hookups (R, L, center, surround ) They are passive speakers that connected via speaker wire.There is NO HDMI

This unit only has HDMI out - not even SPDIF or optical. Regardless of what cable accessories are available at Radio Shack or anywhere else, you absolutely cannot connect it to anything but an HDMI TV or A/V receiver. Even a DVI/HDMI cable would be useless because you would have no audio. Sorry to say but as time goes on, you will find it very difficult to purchase components for older TVs anywhere except from second hand shops or garage sales.

Unfortunately, over AirPlay, there's only audio. However, apps such as YouTube have the ability to stream video and audio to the receiver over a wifi network.

I would stay away from this model RD-7405HDR receiver. The sound quality lacked and was not good when compared to Pioneer or Sony receivers. The answer is NO. It does not have WiFi for wireless speakers.

I was going from a APPLE TV into my older receiver which has no hdmi connections

You will need an audio out port of some kind on your receiver. I plug in wireless speakers to my tape out RCA Plugs on my receiver and plug into the transmitter. Newer receivers have no tape out port, so you'll need to see if there is an audio out jack. (3mm jack)

No. You would need an AppleTV or equivalent to interface from a stream to HDMI

Yes. You will Need an Amplifier/Receiver. Unit's Output Configuration : Analog Output Terminals L/R and a Digital (Optical) Output Terminal. Also, there's No Headphone Jack.

Can I use this this with a Gear Head wireless mouse that came to me without a receiver of any sort?

I don't see why it wouldn't as long as your receiver had an optical out or HDMI out, which most do. Seems like overkill though. Aren't you going the soundbar route to save space and cable runs?

not directly but you can't plug the receiver into the back of the pc than it will not read

L/R analog rca jacks, optical (Toslink), or HDMI CRC (which does *not* work with my Yamaha receiver!)
