Notes:

Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

Do not connect the receiver’s USB port to a USB port on your computer. Music on your computer cannot be played through the receiver in this way.

Connect a turntable (MM) that has a built-in phono preamp to CD IN, or connect it to PHONO IN with the phono preamp turned off. If your turntable (MM) doesn’t have a phono preamp, connect it to PHONO IN. If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer to connect to PHONO IN. See your turntable’s manual for details. If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the GND screw. With some turntables, connecting the ground wire may produce an audible hum. If this happens, disconnect it.

Connection 3and 6lets you listen to and record audio from the external components while you are in Zone 2. You can listen to and record audio from the external components in the main room; you can listen to the audio in Zone 2 as well.

If your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player has both main stereo and multichannel outputs, be sure to connect the main stereo output using connection 6.
