Installing and Connecting the Equipment

When making connections to audio source equipment or speakers, it is always a good practice to unplug the unit from the AC wall outlet. This prevents any possibility of accidentally sending audio or transient signals to the speakers that may damage them.

Refer to the attached Quick Installation diagrams and the Rear Panel Connections diagrams for the DCR600II and DVD600II on pages 17 and 21 when connecting your equipment.

What We Recommend

We recommend a simple connection of your system components to each other, plus a video connection to your television. After you have made these connections, you may wish to read further in this owner’s manual for information on connecting other components, such as external tape or dig- ital recorders, CD players, laserdisc players, cable television boxes, satellite dishes, video games or other devices.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Any cables run inside walls should be CL3/FT4 rated, or carry any other certification that is required by the NEC or state and local building and electrical codes. To avoid interference, audio and speaker cables should not be parallel to, or run in the same conduits or path with, AC cables. If you have any questions about wiring, consult your dealer or electrical contractor.
