Connecting analog audio sources

This receiver features four stereo audio-only inputs. Two of these inputs have corresponding outputs for use with audio recorders.

One of the audio inputs (PHONO) is a dedicated turntable input which should not be used for any other type of component. This input also has a grounding terminal that most turntables require.

1Connect the analog audio outputs of the source component to a set of spare audio inputs on this receiver.

•If you’re connecting a tape deck, MD recorder, etc., connect the analog audio outputs (REC) to the analog audio inputs on the recorder.

•Use a stereo RCA/phono jack audio cable for the connections.

•If your cassette deck has a monitoring function, connect it to the TAPE 2 MONITOR jacks on the rear panel. See Monitoring your recording on page 74 for more on this.

2Turntables only: Connect the stereo audio outputs to the PHONO inputs on this receiver.

•If your turntable has a grounding wire, secure it to the ground terminal on this receiver.

•If your turntable has line-level outputs (no grounding wire), connect them to the CD inputs instead.
