Which Connections Should I Use?

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide. For video components, you must make an audio connection and a video connection.

Video Connection Formats

Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, S-Video, component video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

Composite video to S-Video and S-Video to com- posite video conversion only applies to the MON- ITOR OUT V and S outputs, not the VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2 OUT V and S outputs.

For optimum video performance, THX recom- mends that video signals pass through the sys- tem without upconversion (e.g., component video input through to component video out- put). It’s also recommended that you set the Immediate Display preference to Off (page 78).

Audio Connection Formats

Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by using any of the following audio con- nection formats: analog, optical, coaxial, analog multichannel, or HDMI.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver does not convert digital input signals for analog line output and vice versa. For example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL input are not output by the analog TAPE OUT.
