About cable types

Analog audio cables

Use stereo RCA phono cables to connect analog audio
components. These cables are typically red and white,
and you should connect the red plugs to R (right)
terminals and white plugs to L (left) terminals.

Digital audio cables

Commercially available coaxial digital audio cables or
optical cables should be used to connect digital
components to this receiver.

• When connecting optical cables, be careful when

inserting the plug not to damage the shutter
protecting the optical socket.

• When storing optical cable, coil loosely. The cable

may be damaged if bent around sharp corners.

• You can also use a standard RCA video cable for

coaxial digital connections.

Video cables

Standard RCA video cables

These cables are the most common type of video
connection and should be used to connect to the
composite video terminals. They have yellow plugs to
distinguish them from cables for audio.

S-video cables

S-video cables give you clearer picture reproduction than
standard RCA video cables by sending separate signals
for the luminance and color.

Component video cables

Use component video cables to get the best possible
color reproduction of your video source. The color signal
of the TV is divided into the luminance (

Y

) signal and the

color (

P

B

and

P

R

) signals and then output. In this way,

interference between the signals is avoided.
