Notes

The AV receiver must be turned on for recording. Recording is not possible while it’s in Standby mode.

If you want to record directly from your TV or playback VCR to the recording VCR without going through the AV receiver, connect the TV/VCR’s audio and video outputs directly to the recording VCR’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals supplied with your TV and VCR for details.

Video signals connected to composite video inputs can be recorded only via composite video outputs. If your TV/VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR must be connected to a composite video output.

The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

Copy-protected Blu-ray discs and DVDs cannot be recorded.

Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.

DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

Connecting the power

*Connect to a turntable (MM) that has a phono preamp built-in. If your turntable (MM) does not have a built-in preamp, you will need a commercially available phono preamp.

If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge, you will need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer as well as a phono preamp. See your turntable’s manual for details.

Notes

The receiver can output audio and video signals from the AUX INPUT jacks to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

With connection 2, you can enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS.

With connection 4, if your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player has both main stereo and multichannel outputs, be sure to connect the main stereo.

With the connections described above, you cannot record the video through the receiver. To make a connection for video recording, see the following section.

Connecting recording components

To record audio and video from the same source input

To connect your receiver to power:

• Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.

Using rubber feet/pads for more stable speakers

We recommend using the rubber feet (provided) to achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The rubber feet prevent the speakers from moving, providing a more stable platform.

Wall mounting your speakers

The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the keyhole slots.

To mount the front or surround speakers vertically, use the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that is securely screwed into the wall.
