Making cable connections

Make sure not to bend the cables over the top
of this unit (as shown in the illustration). If this
happens, the magnetic field produced by the
transformers in this unit may cause a
humming noise from the speakers.

Important

• Before making or changing connections,

switch off the power and disconnect the
power cord from the AC outlet.

• Before unplugging the power cord, switch

the power into standby.

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.

Video cables

Standard RCA video cables

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

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.

Note

1 • 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.
