2.2 AUDIO CONNECTIONS
Digital Audio Inputs and Outputs:
Digital audio source components can be connected with a coaxial, optical, balanced, or HDMI cable. These
carry 2-channel PCM, Dolby Digital, and DTS. The HDMI inputs also accept up to eight channels of PCM.
Use the HDMI inputs if your display has HDCP-compliant HDMI or DVI input, otherwise use the coaxial or
optical inputs. The processor also provides one balanced AES/EBU connection, which is used on
professional equipment. Any digital input can be assigned to any number of sources that are set to digital.
To change digital audio connection from factory default, see section 3.6.
Digital Rec-Out can provide a signal to the digital audio input of a Mini Disc recorder, CD recorder etc. from
any source set to Digital (except HDMI) or Anlg-DSP – see sections 3.6 to 3.9.
Analog Audio Inputs:
Analog audio connections are made with RCA or XLR cables. To use ZONE2, ZONE3, or RECORD, connect
digital and analog audio and video* from the source. ZONE2, ZONE3, and RECORD require analog connection
unless set to copy MAIN (explained in sections 3.6 and 4.3).
6-Ch Analog Input:
The 6-Ch input is for connecting DVD-Audio and multichannel SACD players that do not have HDMI output.
When 6-Ch is selected, the video signal from DVD input is routed to the video outputs by factory default – to
change this, see section 3.6.
