Connecting a Recording Component

 

Connecting a DVD Player

 

 

 

To connect recording components, such as cassette deck, MD recorder and CD recorder, use an analog audio cable to connect the receiver’s TAPE IN L/R jacks to the cassette deck’s analog audio output jacks, and use another analog audio cable to connect the receiver’s TAPE OUT L/R jacks to the cassette deck’s analog audio input jacks, as shown.

Use an analog audio cable to connect the DVD IN L/R jacks to the analog audio output jacks on the DVD player, and use a video cable to connect the DVD IN V jack to the composite video output jack on the DVD player.

Then, connect the MONITOR OUT jack to a composite video input jack on the TV.

You can select the video and sound from the DVD player simultaneously by pressing the DVD input selector button.

audio output jacks. Then use an cable to connect the
