outputs of the component to a set of spare

audio inputs on this receiver.

You’ll need to make this connection for

components without a digital output, or if you

want to record from a digital component. Use a

stereo RCA phono cable as shown.

3 If you’re connecting a recorder, connect

the analog audio outputs (REC) to the analog

audio inputs on the recorder.

The example shows an analog connection to

the CD-R/TAPE/MDanalog output jack using

About the WMA9 Pro decoder

This unit has an on-board Windows Media® Audio 9 Professional (WMA9 Pro) decoder, so it is possible to playback WMA9 Pro-encoded audio using a coaxial or optical digital connection when connected to a WMA9 Pro- compatible player. However, the connected DVD player, set-top box, etc. must be able to output WMA9 Pro format audio signals through a coaxial or optical digital output.

Note

1Note that you must connect digital components to analog audio jacks if you want to record to/from digital components (like an MD) to/from analog components.
