I have a tuner/receiver (set top box) from TV provider, Blu-ray player and Amazon Fire stick, all attached to AVR. AVR out to TV (all connections are hdmi). So all TV and streaming and disc playing sources are before the AVR and don't rely on TV. TV is essentially a monitor.
Question 1: Do I need to connect to ARC inputs/outputs in this setup? Question 2: Am I missing anything by not?
I shut off ARC at the receiver to see if I would notice a difference and I did not. My guess (and I stress the guessing part) is that if the source of audio is the TV, then ARC would be important. As it is, my audio sources are from elsewhere so I don't need ARC. Thoughts? Thanks
