Connections

Satellite/cable set-top box, etc.

*If your TV doesn’t support Audio Return Channel (ARC), you need to connect an optical digital cable together with the HDMI cable to the AV receiver.

*When listening to an HDMI component through the AV receiver, set the HDMI component so that its video can be seen on the TV screen (on the TV, select the input of the HDMI component connected to the AV receiver). If the TV power is off or the TV is set to another input source, this may result in no sound from the AV receiver or the sound may be cut off.

Connect your components to the appropriate jacks. The default input assignments are shown below.
