6 ZONE 2 VIDEO OUTPUT CONNECTORS

Provide video output in Zone 2. One composite video connector
and one S-Video connector is available. Alternatively, these
connectors can be used to connect a video recording device.

Note:

• Composite video output connectors are available when a composite

or S-Video source is present.

• S-Video output connectors are available when an S-Video source is

present.

Component video output connectors are available when a

component video source is present.

7 ZONE 2 ANALOG AUDIO OUTPUT CONNECTORS

Provide analog audio output in Zone 2. Two pairs of connectors,
one labeled “Fix” and the other labeled “Var” are available. These
connectors can also be used to connect a recording device. For
recording, use the output connector labeled “Fix,” which provides
a fixed output level of +0dB. If output level adjustment is needed,
use the output labeled “Var” and adjust the Zone 2 volume.

Note:

When using an analog input source, the Zone 2 and Zone 3 audio outputs
are approximately 2dB lower than the Main audio outputs labeled Front L/
R. When using a digital input source, the Zone 2 audio outputs are
approximately 6dB higher than the Main audio outputs labeled Front L/R.
This is to accommodate THX level requirements.

8 TUNER ANTENNA CONNECTORS

Provide two antenna connections for the AM/FM stereo radio tuner.

9 DIGITAL AUDIO INPUT CONNECTORS (S/PDIF)

Provide digital audio input in the Main Zone or Zone 2. Four S/PDIF
coaxial and four S/PDIF optical (Toslink) input connectors are
available. Connectors are compatible with PCM (44.1, 48, 88.2 and
96kHz), Dolby Digital and DTS(-ES) sources. Connectors are not
compatible with MPEG (MP3) sources.

10 MICROPHONE INPUT CONNECTORS

Provides microphone input for automatic calibration.

11 PHONO INPUT CONNECTORS

Provide a phono level input, which can be assigned to any of the eight
RV-8 inputs. A 2-channel analog bypass path is available (with RIAA
curve). A ground connector is also provided. The phono input is
optimized for moving magnet phono cartridges.

12 TRIGGER OUTPUT CONNECTORS

Provide 12V DC output to control connected components. Two
trigger output connectors are available on a removable terminal
block. The PWR connector (the power trigger output connector) is
not configurable. It is activated when the RV-8 is powered on, and
deactivated when the RV-8 is powered off from the rear panel or by
