Connecting Audio Components

To begin set up, connect your audio components to the jacks as shown below. These are all analog connections and
your analog audio components (like a cassette deck) use these jacks. Remember that for components you want to
record with, you need to hook up four plugs (a set of stereo ins and a set of stereo outs), but for components that
only play, you only need to hook up one set of stereo plugs (two plugs). To use Digital source features you must hook
up your digital components to the digital inputs but it is also a good idea to hook up your digital components to
analog audio jacks. If you want to record to/from digital components (like an MD) to/from analog components, you
must hook up your digital equipment with these analog connections. See this page for more on digital connections.
When connecting your equipment, always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected
from the wall outlet.

Connecting Your Equipment

Connecting Digital Components

In order to use PCM/2 Digital/DTS soundtracks, you need to make digital audio connections. You can do this
by either coaxial or optical connections (you do not need to do both). The quality of these two types of connections is
the same but since some digital components only have one type of digital terminal, it is a matter of matching like with
like (for example, the coaxial out from the component to coaxial in on the receiver). The VSX-D510 has coaxial and
two optical inputs for a total of three digital inputs. Connect your digital components as shown below. There is one
digital out jack which is marked PCM/2/DTS OUT. If you connect this to the optical input on a digital recorder
(currently these include MD, DAT and CD-R) you can make direct digital recordings with this unit.
When connecting your equipment, always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected
from the wall outlet.
