Connecting Your Components—Continued
By connecting both the audio and video outputs of your DVD player and other AV components to the AV receiver, you
can select both the audio and video simultaneously simply by selecting the appropriate input source on the AV receiver.
The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format
you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide.
For video components, such as a DVD player, you must make two connections—one for audio, one for video.
Audio Connection Formats
Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver using the following audio connection formats: analog, optical,
coaxial, and multichannel.
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats.
For example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL digital input are not output by the analog TAPE
OUT, so if you want to record from, for example, your CD player, in addition to connecting it to a digital input, you
must also connect it to the analog CD IN.
