Rear-Panel Connectors (AVR 3650 shown)

Analog Record Out connector: connect this analog audio output to the analog audio input of a recording device. A signal is available at this output whenever an analog audio source is playing.

HDMI Monitor Out connector: If your tv has an hdmI connector, use an hdmI cable (not included) to connect it to the Avr’s hdmI monitor out connector. the Avr will automatically transcode component and composite video input signals to the hdmI format (upscaling to as high as 1080p), so you do not need to make any other connections to your tv from the Avr or from any of your video source devices.

HDMI Input connectors: An hdmI connection transmits digital audio and video signals between devices. If your source devices have hdmI connectors, using them will provide the best possible video and audio performance quality. Since the hdmI cable carries both digital video and digital audio signals, you do not have to make any additional audio connections for devices you connect via the hdmI connection. See connect your Audio and video Source devices, on page 18, for more information.

Composite Video Input connectors: use composite video connectors for video source devices that don’t have hdmI or component video connectors. you will also need to make an audio connection from the source device to the Avr. See connect your Audio and video Source devices, on page 18, for more information.

Digital Audio Input connectors: If your non-hdmI source devices have digital

outputs, connect them to the Avr’s digital audio connectors. note: make only one type of digital connection (hdmI, optical or coaxial) from each device. See connect your Audio and video Source devices, on page 18, for more information.
