Connecting a Turntable

CD Player

Note: Use shielded audio cables with phono connectors for all audio connec- tions.

Connect a turntable with a magnetic cartridge only. Some older turntables use a ceramic-type cartridge that does not work with this system.

Connect the turntable’s left and right cables to the receiver’s left and right PHONO jacks. Then connect the turntable’s ground wire to the receiver’s GND terminal.

Note: If you place the cassette deck directly above, below, or to the left of the receiver, the receiver could interfere with the cassette deck’s operation. If possi- ble, position the cassette deck to the right of the receiver or locate it away from the receiver.

Connecting Cassette Deck(s)

You can connect cassette decks to the TAPE 1/VCR and the TAPE 2 MONITOR jacks. Connect the cassette deck’s output jacks to the TAPE 1/VCR PLAY or TAPE 2 MONITOR PLAY jacks, and connect the cassette deck’s input jacks to TAPE 1/VCR REC (audio) or TAPE 2 MONITOR REC jacks.

Connecting a CD Player

To connect a CD player to the receiver, connect the CD player’s left and right output jacks to the receiver’s L and R CD IN jacks.

Connecting Another Audio Source

Connect the audio outputs of another audio source, such as the audio from a laser disc player, TV, VCR, or CD player, to the LD/DVD IN L and R jacks.
