MCH input

Analogue audio inputs

Front panel AUX input

This multi-channel analogue audio input can be connected to a source device which outputs surround sound on its analogue outputs. Such devices typically include DVD-Audio

and SACD players. This input does not pass through any of the audio processing in the AVR360, therefore functions such as speaker size and distance from the listening position should be copied from the AVR360 Setup menus into the Setup menus of your multi-channel

AV, SAT, BD, VCR, PVR, CD

Connect the left and right inputs to the left and right outputs of your source equipment.

AUXPHONES

The front panel AUX input can be used as an analogue or optical digital input.

For analogue sources, use a stereo 3.5mm lead; for digital sources use a 3.5mm optical lead. The front input is also used for the auto-setup microphone input.

source. Note however that speaker level trims are applied to the MCH input on the AVR360. Therefore speaker level trim settings on multichannel source equipment should be left unset at zero.

Analogue pre-amplifier outputs

All pre-amplifier analogue

outputs are buffered, have

a low output impedance,

are at line level and follow

the Zone 1 volume control setting. They are able to drive

long cables or several inputs in parallel if required.

For more information on connecting speakers or additional power amplifiers, see page E-18 and E-19.

Front panel PHONES socket

This socket accepts headphones with an impedance rating between 32Ω and 600Ω, fitted with a 3.5mm stereo jack plug. The headphone socket is always active, except when AVR360 is muted.

When the headphone jack is inserted, the speaker outputs and analogue pre-amplifier outputs are automatically muted.
