1DIGITAL OUT terminals (See p.24)

Use these terminals to output the signal from a DVD, CD player or any other kind of digital player.

2DIGITAL IN terminals (See p.24)

Use these terminals to input the signal from a DVD, CD player or any other kind of digital player. To be able to play Dolby Digital and other surround soundtracks you need to make digital connections. To do this use the digital terminals here. If you don't connect as per the default settings (see p.26) you need to com- plete "Assigning the Digital Inputs" (see p.81).

3MULTI CH INPUT terminals (see page 23)

Use these terminals to input a multichannel surround signal (for example, a DVD-Audio signal) in an analog fashion. These are analog jacks.

4Analog input/output terminals (connect analog components here, see page 22)

Use these terminals to input/output the audio signal from analog components (like a cassette deck or turntable). These are analog jacks.

5POWER AMP IN terminals

Use this terminal to connect an external control amp to this amplifier (see page 69 & 70). Remove the U-shaped connectors only if you plan to do so.

6U-shaped connectors

7PRE OUT analog terminals

Use these terminals to output the (analog) audio signal from this amplifier to a different power amplifier (see page 70). Remove the U- shaped connectors only if you plan to do so.
