Connecting Your Equipment

Connecting Analog Audio Components

Connect your audio components to the jacks as shown below. These are all analog connections and your analog audio components (turntable, cassette deck) use these jacks. Remember that for components you want to record with you need to hook up four plugs (a set of stereo ins and a set of stereo outs), but for components that only play (like a turntable) you only need to hook up one set of stereo plugs (two plugs). If you want to record to/from digital components (like a CD-R) to/from analog components you must hook up your digital equipment with these analog connections.

Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

*The arrows indicate the direction of the audio signal.

memo Don't hook up any other component to the PHONO jacks other than a

turntable. It could damage the equipment. If your turntable has a phono pre-amplifier (most do not) please hook it up to an input other than PHONO.
