Getting Started

Connecting to Audio-Visual Components

TV

If your CD player is equipped with digital optical jacks, use of optical cable is preferred. What you need is just one more optical digital connecting cable (not supplied). Plug it in the digital input jack of the receiver and select OPTICAL on the receiver setting (see details on pg 21 chapter "Input Signal Setting"). You can enjoy better sound quality brought to you by the optical cable. When optical cable is used, analog cables are still needed for recording to tape output.

DIGITAL CONNECTION

If you have a SAT receiver DVD player or CD player with a digital output, you can make use of an optical digital cable (not supplied) or coaxial digital cable (not supplied) to carry the audio portion of the signal and enjoy Dolby Digital sound quality. One optical or coaxial cable is needed for each SAT receiver, DVD player or CD player. When optical or coaxial cable is used, the analog audio cables are still needed if recording through a tape or VCR is desired. This receiver provides one optical and one coaxial digital input for the connection of your components. Please connect your components (e.g. DVD, SAT or CD) to the appropriate digital inputs and press DIGITAL INPUT to select the corresponding digital input source. Note: Optical and coaxial cables carry only the audio portion of the signal. A video connection must also be established for a SAT receiver and DVD player. Composite video (yellow RCA connector) can also be used. It is important that the same type of cable that is connected from the Home Theatre to the TV is used to connect the SAT receiver or DVD player to the Home Theatre.
