Example Connection for a DVD/LD or LD player
VSX-27TX model :
Make sure you connect your DVD/LD or LD players using both the AC-3 RF jack and a coaxial or optical connection. If
your player has an AC-3 RF output this will ensure you can use all LDs. See p. 34.

When playing LD recorded in Dolby Digital
To connect a DVD/LD player or LD player with it's AC-3 RF output, a commercially available RF demodulator (RFD-1) is
required. The RF demodulator changes the RF signal to a digital signal which is then processed by the VSX-26TX/24TX
models through their digital input jacks. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the RFD-1.

Connecting Your Equipment
Be sure to make either a digital coaxial or
digital optical connection (pictured as DIGITAL
jack 1 or DIGITAL jack 3 in this diagram) as
well, but you DON'T need to make both. Also,
be sure to assign the jacks to the proper
component(s) with the "Digital-In Select"
procedure (see p. 34).

memo
Make sure the RF demodulator digital in
switch is set correctly (optical or coaxial
depending on the connection).
