Connecting digital components

The easiest way to hook up this receiver for surround sound is to use a digital input. You can do this by either coaxial or optical connections (you do not need to do both). The quality of these two types of connections is the same but since some digital components only have one type of digital terminal, it is a matter of matching like with like (for example, the coaxial output from the component to coaxial input on the receiver). The VSX-41 has four digital inputs (two coaxial inputs and two optical inputs). Connect your digital components to the rear panel as shown below. See page 17 to connect the front panel optical input.

There are two digital output jacks which is marked DIGITAL OUT. If you connect this to the optical input on a digital recorder (currently these include MD, DAT and CD-R) you can make direct digital recordings with this unit.

When connecting your equipment, always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected from the AC wall outlet.

The arrows indicate the direction of the audio signal.

If you have an LD player, you need to make special connections to ensure you can play 2 RF format LDs on your system. If this is the case, hook up your DVD/LD or LD player directly to an RF demodulator using both the 2 RF output and either a coaxial or optical digital connection. We also recommend hooking up your digital components to analog audio jacks as well. Make sure the RF demodulator digital in switch is set correctly (optical or coaxial depending on the connection). See the component's instruction manual if you are unsure about its input and output jacks.
