Hi I’ve a Samsung 4K tv coming with a sound bar, the question is can I use the sound bar just for the tv when the amp is off, blu ray player, Humax box, fire tv, all connected to the Marantz ,when I turn the amp on which will connected by HDMI to the tv will this turn off the sound bar.Hope you understand what I want to do or even if this is possible, thanks for taking the time to read this .stay safe Steve
 
Yes you probably can, you might need to get a harmony remote, but why would you want to? Sell the sound bar, or use it in another room and use your AVR with the new TV.
 
It’s just I don’t want to use the amp all the time,will have a fiddle with it all when I get it on Thursday,thanks Rambles
 
You could possibly connect the soundbar by optical to the TV and use HDMI ARC to the receiver. Which ever one is powered up should have the audio providing the TV allows such a connection.
 
That’s what I’m trying to do, thanks gibbsy
