Connections

(DTR-5.3)

Here is an explanation of typical ways to connect various components to the DTR-5.3. There are many ways that any one component can be
connected, and it is up to you to decide which method best fits your situation. The directions given here are only one option and should only be
thought of as such. It is best to fully understand the nature of each connector and terminal as well as those of your components and their features
to ascertain which method of connection is best.

Connecting your audio components

Below is an example of how you can connect your audio components
to the DTR-5.3. Refer to the diagram above for the following
connection examples.

AUDIO IN/OUT

These are the analog audio inputs and outputs. There are six audio
inputs and two audio outputs on the rear panel. The audio inputs and
outputs require RCA-type connectors.

DIGITAL INPUT/OUTPUT

On the rear panel of the DTR-5.3, there are one coaxial digital input,
two optical digital inputs, and one optical digital output. To the
digital inputs, connect CD players, LD players, DVD players, or
other digital source component. To the digital output, connect an
MD recorder, CD recorder, DAT deck, or other similar component.

• Since an analog connection must be made when using REC

OUT, make sure that the connection to the input source is not
digital only, but analog as well.

• When using an optical input or output jack, always use an optical

fiber cable.

1. Connecting a compact disc player (CD)

Using an RCA audio cable, connect the output jacks of the compact
disc player to the CD audio jacks of the DTR-5.3. Make sure that you
properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel
to the R jack.

If the compact disc player has a digital output, connect it to either the
DIGITAL INPUT COAXIAL jack or the DIGITAL INPUT
OPTICAL jack of the DTR-5.3 depending on the type of connector
on the compact disc player.

With the initial settings of the DTR-5.3, the CD input source is
set for digital input at the OPTICAL 1 jack (OPT 1).
If the digital connection is made to a different jack, this must be
changed at “Input Setup”

→ “Digital Input” (see page 53).

2. Connecting a cassette tape deck, MD recorder, DAT deck, or

CD recorder (TAPE)

Using RCA audio cables, connect the output jacks (PLAY) of the
device to the TAPE IN audio jacks of the DTR-5.3 and connect the
input jacks (REC) of the device to the TAPE OUT audio jacks of the
DTR-5.3. Make sure that you properly connect the left channels to
the L jacks and the right channels to the R jacks.
If the device has a digital output, connect it to either the DIGITAL
INPUT COAXIAL jack or the DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL jack of
the DTR-5.3 depending on the type of connector on the device.

With the initial settings of the DTR-5.3, nothing is allocated as
the digital input source for TAPE (----).
If you connect the digital audio output, be sure to make the appropriate
changes at “Input Setup”

→ “Digital Input” (see page 53).

If the device has a digital input, connect it to the DIGITAL OUTPUT
OPTICAL jack of the DTR-5.3 for digital recording of the signal
from the digital input of the DTR-5.3.

Note:
The output from the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack of the DTR-5.3 is only
the digital signal input to the DIGITAL INPUT jack.
