Connecting Video Components

Before making connections to any video devices, you should understand how the Model 1070 routes video signals.

nAny signal appearing at any composite video input (DVD, VIDEO 1-4 IN) is automatically sent to the composite and S-Video VIDEO MONITOR OUT and VIDEO 1 REC OUT jacks and to the component MONITOR OUT jacks.

nAny signal appearing at any S-Video input jack (DVD, VIDEO 1-4 IN) is auto- matically sent to the composite and S-Video VIDEO MONITOR OUT and VIDEO 1 REC OUT jacks and to the component MONITOR OUT jacks.

nAny signal appearing at the component video (DVD, VIDEO 1-2 IN) input jacks is automatically sent to the component video MONITOR OUT jacks only.

nAny signal appearing at either the DVI 1 or DVI 2 input is sent to the DVI OUT jack only.

NOTE: For the greatest flexibility, connect composite or S-Video cables from all of your video source components to the Model 1070, even if you are already using a component video or DVI connection.

Remember that the Model 1070's on-screen display does not appear at the DVI OUT jack so always provide a component, S-Video, or composite video con- nection in addition to DVI.

DVD Player

This is a complex bit of interconnectivity simply because there are many pos- sibilities. You’ll have to deal with several video signal formats and a variety of audio possibilities, too. So read this section carefully before you begin.

Video Connections

Composite Using a video cable with yellow RCA jacks at both ends, connect the DVD player’s composite video output to the composite video DVD input (RP5).

Note: You may be tempted to use standard audio “patch cords” for composite video connections. Resist that temptation. The impedance specification of audio cables is not the same as for video and you may see image degradation as a result.

S-VideoUsing a S-video cable with a 4-pin mini-DIN connector at each end, connect the DVD player’s S-video output to the S-video DVD input (RP5).

S-Video delivers a better picture than composite connections and should be used whenever possible unless component or DVI connections are available. They deliver better pictures than S-Video.

Component If your DVD player has component video outputs, connect them to the component DVD IN jacks (RP1). Because component video connections require three video-grade cables, remember to follow the alphabet (“Y” to “Y,” “PB” to “PB,” and “PR” to “PR”) when making these connections.

DVI/HDMI If your DVD player has a DVI or HDMI video output and your video monitor has a DVI or HDMI input, connect the DVD player to the Model 1070’s DVI 1 or 2 input (RP23). (For HDMI-equipped DVD players, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter, or dual-purpose cable such as those available from Outlaw Audio.)

Owner’s Manual

Connecting Your Model 1070

Audio Connections

Analog Using a pair of RCA-to-RCA audio cables, connect your DVD player’s L and R channel analog audio outputs to the DVD analog audio jacks (RP5).

Digital Connect your DVD player’s digital audio output (coaxial or optical) to one of the digital inputs (RP12). Note the selected input on your worksheet for configuration later.

Multi-Channel Audio If your DVD player has a multi-channel audio output for DVD-Audio or SACD playback, connect the six outputs from your player to the multi-channel AUDIO IN jack set (RP5). Use the L, R, CEN, SUB, SL, and SR jacks only – ignore the jacks labeled SBL and SBR. (These will accommodate future 7.1-channel formats if they appear.) Be careful to maintain continuity: Connect L to L, center to CEN, and so on. If your DVD player includes a built-in Dolby Digital decoder with 5.1-channel analog audio outputs but no DVD-A or SACD capability, do not use the player’s 5.1 channel analog outputs. Instead, use a digital connection as described above. Your ears will applaud your choice.

NOTE: You must use the multi-channel audio input for SACD and DVD-Audio players in order to hear the high-resolution digital sound these players provide.

Video Recorder

You can connect a video recording device (VCR, PVR, DVD recorder, etc.) by using the following methods.

Video Connections

Composite Connect your video recorder’s composite video output to the VIDEO 1 IN composite video input jack (RP18). Then connect the recorder’s composite video input to the VIDEO 1 REC OUT composite video jack (RP18). Use the same type of cable specified in the DVD Player section immediately above.

S-VideoUsing a S-video cable with a small 4-pin mini-DIN connector at each end, connect the DVD player’s S-video output to the S-video Video 1 input (RP18). Then connect the recorder’s S-video input to the S-video Video 1 output (RP18).

Audio Connections

Digital Connect your video recorder’s digital audio output (coaxial or optical) to one of the digital inputs (RP12). Note the selected input on your worksheet for configuration later.

If your recording device has a digital input, connect it to either the coaxial or optical (RP14) output jack. The signal from a selected digital source will be sent to the recorder.

Digital TV Tuner/Cable Box/Satellite Receiver

Video Connections

Composite Using a video cable with yellow RCA jacks at both ends, connect the device’s composite video output to your choice of the Video 1-3 composite video inputs. (RP18 or RP19).

S-VideoUsing an S-video cable, connect the device’s S-video output to your choice of the Video 1-3 S-video inputs. (RP18 or RP19).
