Notes:

•Insert all plugs and connectors securely. Incomplete connections may make noise.

•Be sure to connect the left and right channels properly.

Red connectors are for the R(right) channel, and white connectors are for the L(left) channel.

•Be sure to connect input and output properly.

•Refer to the instructions for each component that is connected with this unit.

•Do not bind audio/video connection cables with power cords and speaker cables will result in generating hum or other noise.

CONNECTING DIGITAL AUDIO COMPONENTS

•There are four digital inputs, two coaxial jacks and two optical jacks, on the rear panel. You can use these jacks to input PCM, Dolby Digital and DTS bitstream signals from a CD, DVD, or other digital source components.

•There are one digital output with coaxial jack and one with optical jack on the rear panel. These jacks can be connected to CD recorder, MD deck.

•Setup the digital audio format of DVD player, or other digital source component. Refer to the instructions for each component to be connected to digital input jacks.

• Do not connect more than one speaker cable to

one speaker terminal. Doing so may damage this

unit.

Note:

•Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the speaker properly. If they are miss- connected, the signal phase will reversed and the signal quality will be corrupted.

CONNECTING A SUBWOOFER

Use the PRE OUT SUBWOOFER jack to connect a powered subwoofer (power amplifier built in ).

If your subwoofer is passive type (power amplifier is not built in), connect a monaural power amplifier to the PRE OUT SUBWOOFER jack and connect the subwoofer to the amplifier.

 

•

Use fiber optical cables(optical) for DIG-1,2

 

 

 

input jacks. Use 75 ohms coaxial cables(for

 

 

 

digital audio or video) for DIG-3,4 input jacks.

 

 

•

You can designate the input for each digital

 

 

 

input/output jacks according to your component.
