Hooking Up the Multichannel Input

If your DVD player supports multichannel audio formats such as DVD-Audio and SACD, and it has a multichannel analog audio output, you can connect it to the AV receiver’s multichannel input.

Use a multichannel analog audio cable, or several normal audio cables, to connect the AV receiver’s MULTI CH: FRONT L/R, CENTER, SURR L/R, SURR BACK L/R, and SUBWOOFER jacks to the 7.1-channel analog audio output on your DVD player. If your DVD player has a 5.1-channel analog audio output, don’t connect anything to the AV receiver’s SURR BACK L/R jacks.

Before using the multichannel input, you must assign it to an input selector. See “Analog Audio Input Setup” on page 60. To select the multichannel input, see “Selecting Audio Inputs” on page 120. To adjust the subwoofer sensitivity for the multichannel input, see “Subwoofer Input Sensitivity” on page 118.
