CAUTION:

If you connect a sound- enhancing device such as a graphic equalizer between the source components and this receiver, the sound output through this receiver may be distorted.

Notes:

•Any turntables incorporating a small-output cartridge such as an MC (moving-coil type) must be connected to this receiver through a commercial head amplifier or step-up transformer. Direct connection may result in insufficient volume.

•You can connect either a cassette deck or an MD recorder to the TAPE/MD jacks. When connecting an MD recorder to the TAPE/MD jacks, change the source name, which will be shown on the display when selected as the source, to “MD.” See page 18 for details.

•When connecting an audio/ video component (ex.: Video CD player) with “karaoke” — singing along — function, use the audio signal attenuating cord supplied with this receiver. If not, sound may be distorted.
