Connecting a satellite receiver or other digital
set-top box

Satellite and cable receivers, and terrestrial digital TV tuners

are all examples of so-called ‘set-top boxes’.

• If the set-top box or video component also has an HDMI

output, you can connect this too. See Connecting using

HDMI on page 14 for more on this.

Note

• In order to listen to the audio from the source component

that is connected to this receiver using a coaxial cable or

an optical cable, first, switch to the CD/SAT, then press
SIGNAL SEL

to choose the audio signal C1 (COAXIAL1) or

O1

(OPTICAL1) (see Selecting the audio input signal on

page 17).

Connecting other audio components

The number and kind of connections depends on the kind of

component you’re connecting. Follow the steps below to

connect a CD-R, MD, DAT, tape recorder or other audio

component.

• Note that you must connect digital components to analog

audio jacks if you want to record to/from digital

components (like an MD) to/from analog components.

Note

• In order to listen to the audio from the CD player that is

connected to this receiver using an optical cable, first,

switch to the CD-R input, then press SIGNAL SEL to

choose the audio signal O1 (OPTICAL1) (see Selecting the

audio input signal on page 17).

Connecting antennas

Connect the AM loop antenna and the FM wire antenna as

shown below. To improve reception and sound quality,

connect external antennas (see Using external antennas on

page 16).

1

Push open the tabs, then insert one wire fully into each

terminal, then release the tabs to secure the AM antenna
wires.

2

Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached stand.

To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction

indicated by the arrow (fig. a) then clip the loop onto the

stand (fig. b).

3

Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and in a direction

giving the best reception.

4

Connect the FM wire antenna into the FM antenna

socket.

For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall

or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.
