CONNECTING TO DIGITAL (OPTICAL AND COAXIAL) JACKS

If your CD player, video cassette recoder, LD player, etc. are equipped with optical digital audio signal output (and input) jacks, they can be connected to this unit’s OPTICAL digital signal input (and output) jacks.

To make a connection between optical digital audio signal jacks, remove the cover from each jack, and then connect them by using a commercially available optical fiber cable that conforms to EIAJ standards. Other cables might not function correctly.

Additionally, this unit is equipped with a COAXIAL type of digital audio signal input jack for the connection with the CD player only, so you can select either the OPTICAL or the COAXIAL jack for a digital connection with the CD player.

Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) jack of this unit, you must keep the unit connected with the same named analog audio signal jacks of this unit, because digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck or VCR other than the tape deck connected to the OPTICAL TAPE 1 REC OUT jack of this unit. You can switch the selection of input signals between “digital” and “analog” easily. (See page 46 for details.)
