terminal should be connected to the red (+) terminal on the Side Surround/ Surround Right speaker with the older color-coding. Connect the black (–) termi- nals on the CVR700 to the matching black negative (–) terminals for each side sur- round speaker. (See page 42 for more information on speaker polarity.)

£Center Speaker Outputs: Connect these outputs to the matching + and – terminals on your center channel speaker. In conformance with the CEA color-code specification, the green terminal is the positive (+) terminal that should be con- nected to the red (+) terminal on speakers with the older color-coding. Connect the black (–) terminal on the CVR700 to the black negative (–) terminal on the speaker. (See page 42 for more information.)

¢Front Speaker Outputs: Connect these outputs to the matching + or – ter- minals on your left and right speakers. When making speaker connections always make certain to maintain correct polarity by connecting the color-coding (white for front left and red for front right) (+) terminals on the CVR700 to the red (+) terminals on the speakers and black (–) terminals on the CVR700 to the black terminals on the speakers (see page 42 for more information).

∞Fan Slots: These ventilation holes are the output of the CVR700’s airflow system. To ensure proper operation of the unit and to avoid possible damage to del- icate surfaces, make certain that these holes are not blocked and that there is at least three inches of open space between the vent holes and any wooden or fabric surface. It is equally important to make sure that the holes in the top and bottom covers of the unit are not blocked, either. It is normal for the fan to remain on at all times at one of three speeds, depending on the selection you make in the ADVANCED SETTINGS submenu. By selecting the default MINIMUM NOISE setting, the fan will run at its slowest speed at volumes below –20dB, and at its slightly faster medium speed at higher volumes. This setting should only be selected when the CVR700 is placed on a shelf and

not within an enclosed space. When the CVR700 is placed inside a cabinet or other enclosed space, select the

MAXIMUM COOLING setting, in which the fan will always be on at its highest setting.

§Subwoofer Output: Connect this jack to the line-level input of a powered subwoofer. If an external subwoofer amplifier is used, connect this jack to the subwoofer amplifier input. Use a Y-adaptor when connecting two sub- woofers.

DVI/Computer Analog Audio Inputs: Connect the left/right analog audio outputs of a computer or other device with a DVI output to these jacks to benefit from the CVR700’s surround processor for added realism and excite- ment when playing computer games, or giving multimedia presentations, or for other uses. When you have also connected the computer’s DVI video out- put to the DVI/Computer Video Input

35 , you may also benefit from the superior visual presentation of the JBL Cinema Vision CVPD50 screen.

You may connect any device with left and right analog audio outputs to these jacks.

•Auxilliary Analog Audio/Video Inputs: Connect the left/right analog audio and composite or S-video jacks of a video device to these jacks. You may con- nect any video source such as a VCR, HDTV receiver, or other device to these inputs. Note that if the source device offers digital audio capability, that con- nection must be made separately, and the CVR700 configured accordingly. Note that the Auxiliary Source Input does not have component video inputs assigned to it and thus may only be used with compos- ite or S-video. Therefore, if possible, it is recommended that an HDTV receiver be used with the Cable/Sat or even the Digital Recorder source, so that a compo- nent video connection may be made. (See page 46 for more information on configur- ing an input for various source options.)

ªDigital Recorder Analog

Audio/Video Inputs: Connect the left/right analog audio and composite or S-video PLAY/OUT jacks of a video recording device such as a VCR, DVD- Recorder or personal video recorder to these jacks. The CVR700’s remote control has a variety of digital recorders avail- able as the default devices for this input, but you may connect any video source such as a VCR, HDTV or cable set-top box, personal video recorder, or other device to these inputs. Note that if the source device offers either digital audio or component video capability, those con- nections must be made separately, and the CVR700 configured accordingly. (See

page 46 for more information on configur- ing an input for various source options.)

‚Digital Recorder Analog Audio/ Video Outputs: Connect the left/right analog audio and composite or S-video RECORD/IN jacks of a video recording device such as a DVD-Recorder, personal video recorder or VCR to these jacks.

⁄VCR Analog Audio/Video Inputs:

Connect the left/right analog audio and composite or S-video PLAY/OUT jacks of a video recording device such as a VCR, DVD-Recorder or personal video recorder to these jacks.

¤VCR Analog Audio/Video Outputs:

Connect the left/right analog audio and composite or S-video RECORD/IN jacks of a video recording device such as a VCR, DVD-Recorder or personal video recorder to these jacks.

The CVR700’s remote control has a VCR as the default device for this input, but you may connect any video source such as an HDTV or cable set-top box, personal video recorder, or other device to these inputs. Note, however, that the VCR source is not associated with any digital audio inputs or component video inputs, and should therefore only be used as a last resort for devices that have those capabilities. The preferred system config- uration is to connect an HDTV tuner or digital cable or satellite receiver to the Cable/Sat source, and to connect a per- sonal video recorder, such as a TiVo,® to the Digital Recorder source.

‹Cable/Satellite Analog Audio/Video Inputs: Connect the left/right analog audio and composite or S-video jacks of a video device to these jacks. The CVR700’s remote control has a cable, satellite or HDTV set-top as the default devices available for this input, but you may connect any video source such as a VCR, HDTV or satellite receiver, personal video recorder, or other device to these inputs. Note that if the source device offers either digital audio or com- ponent video capability, those connec- tions must be made separately, and the CVR700 configured accordingly.
