Running old Harman Kardon HK3600 with new Samsung TV

[JoeNKentucky]

I am completely new to audio systems, but have always loved music. I currently have a good system in my living room, but want to switch out tvs and run the second system in my game room. I am debating buying a Sony STRDN1080 1155W 7.2 ch. receiver or utilizing my old Harman Kardan HK3600. If I use the HK3600, can I run the TV sound through the system? Here is what will make up the rest of the system:

Samsung 65" JS8500 SUHD LED Curved Screen TV
Energy CB20 speakers as main
Energy CC5 Center Channel
Klipsch R-12SW Reference Powered Subwoofer (Still in box. Debating returning and buying either Polk HTS 10 or HSU VTF-2 MK5)
Polk bookshelf speakers as rears (Can't remember what they are since I bought them about 7 years ago.

I am currently running a Pioneer Elite VSX-LX303 upstairs. with the Samsung. I am going to buy an LG for upstairs and move the Samsung downstairs. What are your thoughts on the receivers and if I do use the old Harman Kardon can I run the TV through it? Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated and I hope this is the right forum to post this.

Not sure why you chose the DIY forum instead of the avr/tv oriented ones. (this is more a forum for building your own components). No biggie but curious

Your HK is probably HDMI ARC capable? Your tv should be. You can also run an optical output from tv to most avrs.

Thanks. I wasn't sure where to post this. It does not have HDMI. I will check for optical.
