Connecting Audio Equipment

The following illustration shows how to connect a CD player and MD or tape recorder. The CD player is shown connected to the RP-U100 using both analog and digital connec- tions. However, it’s not necessary to make both connections. Since digital offers higher quality, use the digital connection if your CD player had a digital output. The MD/tape recorder is shown connected to the RP-U100 using analog and digital connections. If your MD player has a digital input, connect it as shown. Be careful not to mix up the left and right connections.

Note: The DIGITAL AUX 1 OPT IN has priority over the ANALOG AUX 1 IN, so if you connect to both inputs, the signal received at the DIGITAL AUX 1 OPT IN is used.

Protective Caps

When connecting to an optical connector, remove its protective cap first. When an optical connector is not being used, replace its cap to prevent dust entering the connector.
