About the WMA9 Pro decoder
This unit has an on-board Windows MediaTM Audio 9
Professional1 (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 PC, DVD
player, set-top box, etc. must be able to output WMA9 Pro
format audio signals through a coaxial or optical digital
output.
Connecting analog audio sources
This receiver features two stereo audio-only inputs. One
of these inputs (CD-R/TAPE/MD) has corresponding
outputs for use with audio recorders.
• Connect the analog audio outputs of the source
component to one of the AUDIO inputs.
Connect using a stereo RCA/phono jack audio cable.
• If you’re connecting a tape deck, MD recorder, etc.,
connect the analog audio outputs (OUT) to the
analog audio inputs on the recorder.
Connecting a component to the front
panel inputs
The front panel inputs comprise a composite video jack
(VIDEO), an S-video jack (S-VIDEO), stereo analog audio
inputs (AUDIO L/R) and an optical digital audio input
(DIGITAL). You can use these connections for any kind of
audio/video component, but they are especially
convenient for portable equipment such as camcorders,
video games and portable audio/video equipment.
•Push down on the PUSH OPEN tab to access the
front video connections.
• Select these inputs by pressing VIDEO/GAME or
using INPUT SELECT (remote) to select VIDEO/
GAME.
