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

The output audio signal from the TAPE OUT jack and the CD-R/MD OUT jack is the same signal which is currently selected.

Caution:

Do not connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been completed.

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 to this unit.

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

CONNECTING DIGITAL AUDIO COMPONENTS

There are 6 digital inputs, 3 coaxial jacks and 3 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 is one digital output coaxial jack and one optical output jack on the rear panel. These jacks can be connected to a CD recorder-, or a MD deck inputs, respectively.

Refer to the instructions for each component. To setup the digital audio format of DVD player, or other digital source’s connected to digital input jacks.

Use fiber optical cables (optical) for DIG-1,2,3 input jacks. Use 75 ohms coaxial cables (for digital audio or video) for DIG-4, 5, 6 input jacks.

You can designate the input for each digital input/output jacks according to your component. See page 18.

Notes:

There is no Dolby Digital RF input jack. Please use an external RF demodulator Dolby Digital decoder when connecting the Dolby Digital RF output jack of the video disc player to the digital input jack.

The digital signal jacks on this unit conform to the EIA standard. If you use a cable that does not conform to this standard, this unit may not function properly.

Each type of audio jack works independently. Signals input through the digital and analog jacks are output through the corresponding digital and analog jacks, respectively.
