Audio Input Connection - HDMI

Although HDMI connection carries both audio and video, B&K can process audio and video separate- ly (please see the menu structure for further information). To connect an HDMI audio source to the B&K, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI output on the source device. Then connect the other end of the cable into the corresponding HDMI input on the receiver. Multichannel PCM over HDMI opera- tion is supported by selecting the DVD-A on the remote control.

Audio Input Connection - Optical Digital

The B&K surround receiver provides eight optical audio inputs. These inputs may be used to send an optical audio signal from a source piece to the B&K. Connect the optical audio output on the source piece using an optical cable to the optical audio input on the B&K. Shown is an optical audio source going into the optical audio input on Input 1.The order of audio signal precedence per each input is Optical Digital -> Coax Digital -> Stereo Analog.

Audio Input Connection - Coax Digital

The B&K surround receiver provides eight coax digital audio inputs. These inputs may be used to send a coax digital audio signal from a source piece to the B&K. Connect the coax digital audio output on the source piece using an RCA cable to the coax digital audio input on the B&K. Shown is a coax dig- ital audio source going into the coax digital audio input on Input 1.The order of audio signal precedence per each input is Optical Digital -> Coax Digital -> Stereo Analog.

Audio Input Connection - Stereo Analog

The B&K surround receiver provides eight pairs of stereo analog audio inputs. These inputs may be used to send a stereo analog audio signal from a source piece to the B&K. Connect the stereo ana- log audio output on the source piece using a RCA cable to the analog stereo audio input on the B&K. Shown is a stereo analog audio source going into the stereo analog audio input on Input 1. Analog input 5,6,7,8 may be used for as a single multichannel analog input. The order of audio signal prece- dence per each input is Optical Digital -> Coax Digital -> Stereo Analog.

Audio Input Connection - Multi-channel Analog 5.1 or 7.1

Multichannel Analog is available from players such as a Blu-Ray player, SACD player, DVD-Audio play- er, etc. B&K analog inputs 5,6,7,8 are use as the input for a player’s 5.1 or 7.1 analog output. The Multichannel Analog input must be assigned for use with a source input 1 through 14. Selection is by the DVD-A remote button. Note: if the Multi-channel Analog input source is assigned to an HDMI input 9-14, only Multichannel Analog operation is allowed for the specified HDMI input.
