Which Connections Should I Use?

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide. For video components, such as a DVD player, you must make an audio connection and a video connection.

Audio Connection Formats

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats.

Video Connection Formats

For TX-SR505/TX-SR505E/TX-SR8550

Video equipment can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, S-Video, or component video, the latter offering the best picture quality.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats, so only outputs of the same format as the input will output the signal.

For TX-SR575

Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, S-Video, or component video, the lat- ter offering the best picture quality.

Composite video to S-Video and S-Video to composite video conversion only applies to the MONITOR OUT V and S outputs, not the VCR/DVR OUT V and S outputs.
