CONNECTING TO S VIDEO TERMINALS <For CX-2 only>

If your video cassette recorder, LD player, etc. and your monitor are equipped with “S” (high-resolution) video terminals, connect them to this unit’s S video terminals, and connect this unit’s S MON OUT terminal to the “S” video input of your monitor. Otherwise, connect the composite video terminals from your video cassette recorder, LD player, etc. to the composite video terminals of this unit, and connect this unit’s composite MON OUT terminal to the composite video input of your monitor.

Note

If video signals are sent to both S video input and composite video input terminals, the signals will be sent to their respective output terminals independently.

ABOUT THE ACCESSORY COMPONENTS ON THE REAR PANEL

AC OUTLETS (SWITCHED)

(U.S.A., Canada, Europe and General models)

............................................................

3 SWITCHED OUTLETS

(Australia and U.K. models) ..................

1 SWITCHED OUTLET

Use these to connect the power cords from your components (except a power amplifier, integrated amplifier and receiver) to this unit.

The maximum power (total power consumption of components) that can be connected to the SWITCHED AC OUTLETS is 200 watts. Strictly be careful not to exceed this value.

The power to the SWITCHED outlets is controlled by this unit’s POWER switch or the provided remote control transmitter’s POWER key. These outlets will supply power to any component whenever this unit is turned on.

PHONO switch

Select either MM or MC position depending on your PHONO cartridge, Moving Magnet or Moving Coil type. However, if you use a high output MC cartridge, select MM position.

GND terminal (For turntable use)

Connecting the ground wire of the turntable to this terminal will normally minimize hum, but in some cases better results may be obtained with the ground wire disconnected.

REMOTE CONTROL (POWER AMP) connector

If you have the YAMAHA power amplifier MX-1 or MX-2, connect this connector to the REMOTE CONTROL (PRE AMP) connector of the power amplifier by using the provided cable. By this connection, the power of the power amplifier is controlled by this unit’s POWER switch or the provided remote control transmitter’s POWER key.

After the connection is completed, keep the POWER switch of the power amplifier pressed inward (to the ON position).

Note

If you will not connect the REMOTE CONTROL connectors of this unit and the power amplifier, do not connect the cable to either connector.

CARTRIDGE LOAD switch <For CX-1 only>

Set to either impedance position (220Ω or 1 kΩ) proper for the PHONO MC cartridge being used by your turntable.
