Installing the AVR 460/AVR 360 and connecting it to the other system components can be complex. To simplify installation, it is suggested that you design your system before you begin connecting wires and cables.
Although the
Table A1 in the appendix indicates the default device types for each source, and the default audio/video connection assignments. If the defaults suit your system, then connect your devices to the audio/video inputs shown. Otherwise, design your system as explained below.
1.Best video connection type for your system: Examine the video inputs on your TV or video display. Write down the best available video connection type here: ____________.
The options, in order of preference, are: HDMI, DVI (must be HDCP- compliant), component video or composite video. This is the “system- best” video connection for your system.
2.Decide which source will be used for each device: Match up to 6 devices to the 6 conventional sources listed in the Table 2 worksheet below. Use the AUX source for any of these device types: CD player, HDTV
NOTE: You may match any device type to any source. The device type is only relevant for programming control codes into the handheld remote and, as explained on page 23, you may reassign any Source Selector’s device type. Any audio or video source may be connected to any matching jack on the AVR, regardless of device type.

3.Best video connection for each source: Examine each source device and write down the best available type of video connection, but not better than the
4.Best audio connection for each source: For each source device, write down the best available type of audio connection. See the note below, and if the HDMI connection may be used for audio, it is the best option. The other options, in order of preference, are: optical digital audio, coaxial digital audio,
NOTES:
For multichannel disc players, if both the device and the TV use HDMI connections for video, then check the owner’s manual for the device to determine whether it transmits multichannel audio via its HDMI output. If it does, then no separate audio connection is required. If not, write down the multichannel analog audio connection in addition to any other audio type.
