Connecting Your Components—Continued

Connecting a Satellite, Cable, Set-top Box, or Other Video Source

Step 1: Video Connection

AConnect your set-top box’s video output jack to the AV receiver’s VIDEO 2 IN jack and connect the AV receiver’s MONITOR OUT jack to your TV’s video input jack.

BIf your VCR and TV have component video jacks, connect your set-top box’s component video output to the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO VIDEO 2 IN jacks, and connect the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to your TV’s component video in jacks. This offers better picture quality than composite video.

CConnect a coaxial feed from a TV antenna to your set-top box’s antenna input jack (e.g., RF IN), and connect your set-top box’s antenna output jack (e.g., RF OUT) to your TV’s antenna input jack.

Step 2: Audio Connection

aConnect your set-top box’s audio output jack to the AV receiver’s VIDEO 2 IN L/R jacks.

bIf your set-top box has an optical digital audio output jack, connect it to the AV receiver’s DIGITAL IN OPTI- CAL 1 jack. You can enjoy Dolby and DTS listening modes with this connection.

cIf your set-top box has a coaxial digital audio output jack instead of an optical one, connect it to the AV receiver’s DIGITAL IN COAXIAL jack, and set the DIGITAL INPUT assignment to COAX (see page 35). Coaxial con- nections perform the same as optical ones.
