Speaker Outputs

The RSX-1067 has seven built-in amplifiers, two for the front (right and left), one for the center channel, and two for the rear surround speakers (right and left) and two for center back speakers (1 & 2). There are seven pairs of binding post connections (one pair for each speaker) which accept bare wire, spade lugs, or banana plug connectors (in some markets).

NOTE: The RSX-1067 has a speaker redirect feature which allows you to use either the front channel amplifiers or the center back channel amplifiers to drive remote Zone 2 speakers when then amplifier channels are not needed for the main room. This feature is configured in the Default Setup menu.

Preamp Outputs

A group of ten RCA analog audio outputs sends the RSX-1067’s line level output signals to external amplifiers and powered subwoofers. These outputs are variable level, adjusted by the RSX-1067 volume control. The eight con- nectors provide output for: FRONT L & R, CEN- TER 1 & 2, SURROUND L & R, CENTER BACK CB1 & CB2, and SUBWOOFER 1 & 2.

NOTE: Depending on your system configura- tion, you may use some or all of these con- nections. For example, if you only have one center channel, connect it to the CENTER 1 output. If you only have one center back chan- nel, connect it to the CB1 output.

ZONE 2 Audio Outputs

A pair of RCA inputs, labeled AUDIO OUT/ ZONE 2, sending analog audio signals to an external amplifier for a remote zone. These outputs can be configured as either fixed or variable level using the ZONE 2 SETUP menu.

NOTE: Only analog input signals are avail- able at the Zone 2 outputs. Source compo- nents connected to only the digital inputs are not available in Zone 2.

To configure your system for Zone 2 opera- tion, connect the left and right Zone 2 outputs on the RSX-1067 to the left and right channel inputs of the amplifier powering the remote speakers, using standard RCA audio cables.

Video Inputs & Outputs

These connections are used for connecting video signals to and from the RSX-1067. See the Making Connections section for specific instructions for each type of component.

The RSX-1067 provides Composite, S-Video, and Component Video connections. Composite video connections simplify system configura- tion; however, S-Video connections typically provide better picture quality. Component Video connections are required for HDTV or progres- sive scanned DVD video. Be aware of the fol- lowing implications for the configuration of your system:

On Screen Display: The RSX-1067 OSD system is available on the TV monitor, regardless of what type of connection is made from the TV MONITOR outputs to the TV set.

NOTE: When using a progressive scan or 1080i video signal from the Component Video in- puts, the TV monitor cannot display the video signal and the OSD menus at the same time. A “progressive” setting in the Other Options setup menu allows the use of the main OSD setup menus, even with progressive or HDTV signals. When the main OSD setup menus are activated, the progressive scan video input is interrupted and restored when the OSD menus are cancelled. The temporary OSD informa- tion displays (such as volume setting, etc.) are not displayed.

Output Conversion: The RSX-1067 con- verts composite and S-Video signals to Com- ponent Video signals for output to an NTSC or PAL standard TV monitor. For maximum con- venience, connect the RSX-1067 to the TV moni- tor with Component Video connections. S-Video signals cannot be converted to composite out- puts and vice versa.

NOTE: When a video input is selected for pro- gressive mode on the Other Options menu, the conversion from composite or S-Video to Component Video output is not available for this input. The conversion from composite or S-VIDEO to Component Video output is only available for the other video inputs.

Many digital HDTV monitors adjust scan rates and other video parameters depending on the type of input connection. You may wish to make multiple connections between the RSX-1067 and the TV monitor, switching inputs on the TV to take advantage of these features.

VIDEO 1–5

Composite Video Inputs

Five inputs accepts standard composite video signals from source components using stan- dard 75 ohm RCA video cables.

VIDEO 1–3

Composite Video Outputs

Three RCA jacks, labeled COMPOSITE VIDEO OUT 1–3, provide connections for sending composite video signals for recording on a VCR or other recording device.

These connections correspond to the VIDEO IN 1-3 connections. Make sure that you are consistent. If you hook up a particular VCR to the VIDEO 1 inputs, hook up the VIDEO 1 output to the same VCR.

NOTE: The RSX-1067 cannot convert S-Video or Component Video signals to composite video. Therefore, only signals received at the composite video inputs are available at these outputs.

VIDEO 1–5 S-Video Inputs

Five inputs, labeled S-VIDEO IN 1–5 accept S-Video signals from source components.

VIDEO 1–3 S-Video Outputs

Three S-VIDEO jacks, labeled S-VIDEO OUT 1–3, provide connections for sending S-Video signals for recording on a VCR or other re- cording device.

These connections correspond to the VIDEO IN 1-3 connections. Make sure that you are consistent. If you hook up a particular VCR to the VIDEO 1 inputs, hook up the VIDEO 1 output to the same VCR.

NOTE: The RSX-1067 cannot convert compos- ite video or Component Video signals to S-Video. Only signals received at the S-Video inputs are available at these outputs.
