Chapter One : Connecting Your Devices

Connecting Your DVD Player, continued

Connections

Do not plug in the receiver to AC power until you have connected all your devices.

This section focuses on the connections from your DVD player to the VR-4900/VR-4700/KRF-V9993D. Please refer to your DVD player’s instructions for more detail about its connection jacks and capabilities.

The instructions in this section show one of several possible variations on connecting your DVD player. For further assistance on optional configurations, contact the store where you purchased your receiver.

To Connect a DVD Player:

1.Review the information under “Before You Begin” on page 1. It contains important notes about the types of video connections you can make.

2.Connect the audio and video cables from the DVD’s Audio and Video jacks to the receiver’s PLAY IN jacks as shown to the left.

When the DVD player provides only the stereo (left, right) outputs, connect them to the receiver’s FRONT jacks.

When the DVD player provides the DVD 6CH (DVD 5.1 CH) outputs, connect them to the FRONT, SUR- ROUND, CENTER and SUBWOOFER input jacks.

3.Connect the digital cable (either coaxial or optical) from the DVD’s digital jack to the appropriate digital jack on the receiver as shown to the left.

The illustration shows two digital connections, one for coaxial connection and one for optical connection. Your DVD player supports one or the other of these connec- tion methods—do not connect both.

If you use the optical digital cable, be sure to remove the protective cover from the optical jack before con- necting.

4. Go to “Noting Your Devices” on page 3 and note which jacks you used to connect your DVD player. In addi- tion, note the brand name and model number of the DVD player.

DTS disclaimer clause

DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot be decoded and played back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For this reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, proper precautions should taken by the consumer if the analog outputs are connected directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output (S/PDIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.

This unit is equipped with DTS Digital Surround™ decoder.
