Connecting a Turntable

Note: Use shielded audio cables with phono connectors for all audio connec- tions.

Connect a turntable with a magnetic cartridge only. Some older turnta- bles use a ceramic-type cartridge that does not work with this system.

Connect the turntable’s left and right cables to the receiver’s L (left) and R (right) PHONO IN jacks. Then connect the turntable’s ground wire to the receiver’s SIGNAL GND terminal.

Note: If you place the cassette deck di- rectly above, below, or to the left of the receiver, the receiver could interfere with the cassette deck’s operation. If possi- ble, position the cassette deck to the right or away from the receiver.

Connecting a CD Player

To connect a CD player to the receiver, connect the CD player’s left and right output jacks to the receiver’s L and R CD IN jacks.

Connecting Cassette Decks

You can connect cassette decks to the VCR/TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 MONITOR jacks. Connect the cassette deck’s output jacks to the VCR/TAPE 1 IN PLAY or TAPE 2 MONITOR IN PLAY jacks. Then, connect the cassette deck’s input jacks to the VCR/TAPE 1 OUT REC or TAPE 2 MONITOR OUT REC jacks.

You can connect a third cassette deck (for playback only) to the DVD/TV IN or LD/SAT (audio) jacks.
