About the WMA9 Pro decoder

This receiver has an on-board Windows Media™ Audio 9

Professional3 (WMA9 Pro) decoder, so it is possible to playback WMA9 Pro-encoded audio using a coaxial or optical digital connection when connected to a WMA9 Pro-compatible player. However, the connected PC, DVD player, set-top box, etc. must be able to output WMA9 Pro format audio signals through a coaxial or optical digital output.

Connecting analog audio sources

This receiver features two stereo audio-only inputs. One of these inputs (CD-R) has corresponding outputs for use with audio recorders.

Connect the analog audio outputs of the source component to one of the AUDIO inputs.

Connect using a stereo RCA/phono jack audio cable.

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

Connecting a component to the front panel inputs

The front panel inputs comprise a composite video jack (VIDEO), stereo analog audio inputs (AUDIO L/R) and an optical digital audio input (DIGITAL IN). You can use these connections for any kind of audio/video component, but they are especially convenient for portable equipment such as camcorders, video games and portable audio/video equipment.

Note

1• If your digital component only has an optical digital output, you can connect it to one of the optical inputs on this receiver using an optical cable. When you set up the receiver you’ll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the component to (see also The Input Setup menu on page 69).

The digital outputs from other components can be connected to any spare digital audio inputs on this receiver. You can assign them when setting up the receiver (see also The Input Setup menu on page 69).

2In order to record some digital sources, you must make analog connections as explained in Connecting analog audio sources below.

With WMA9 Pro, sound problems may occur depending on your computer system. Note that WMA9 Pro 96 kHz sources will be downsampled to 48 kHz.
