Radio Antenna connectors: connect the included Am and fm antennas to their
respective terminals for radio reception. See Connect the Radio Antennas, on page 13,
for more information.
Digital Audio connectors: If your non-hdmI source devices have digital outputs,
connect them to the AVr’s digital audio connectors. See Connect Your Source Devices,
on page 11, for more information.
Analog Audio connectors: use the AVr’s Analog Audio connectors for source devices
that don’t have hdmI or digital audio connectors. use the Video 1 out, Video 2 out and
tape out connectors to connect to the audio inputs of Vcrs, tape decks or other analog
recorders. See Connect Your Source Devices, on page 11, for more information.
HDMI connectors: the hdmI (high-definition multimedia Interface
® ) feature is a
connection for transmitting digital audio and video signals between devices. If your
source devices and tV have hdmI connectors, using them will provide the best possible
video and audio performance quality. Since the hdmI cable carries both digital video
and digital audio signals, you do not have to make any additional audio connections for
devices you connect via hdmI connections. See Connect Your Source Devices, on page
11, for more information.
Notes on using the HDMI Out connector:
• When connecting a DVI-equipped display to the HDMI Monitor Out connector, use
an hdmI-to-dVI adapter and make a separate audio connection.
• Make sure the HDMI-equipped display is HDCP-compliant. If it isn’t, do not connect
it via hdmI; use an analog video connection instead and make a separate audio
connection.
Subwoofer connector: connect this jack to a powered subwoofer that has a line-level
input connector. See Connect Your Subwoofer, on page 11, for more information.
Composite Video connectors: use composite video connectors for video source devices
and a tV that don’t have hdmI connectors. you will also need to make audio connections
from the source devices to the AVr. See Connect Your Source Devices, on page 11, for
more information.
IMPORTANT: the AVr’s on-screen display (oSd) only appears through the composite
monitor out connector. If you want to use the AVr’s oSd menus you need to connect
its composite monitor out connector to your tV even if you are not connecting any
composite video source devices to the AVr.
Speaker connectors: use two-conductor speaker wire to connect each set of terminals
to the correct speaker. See Connect Your Speakers, on page 11, for more information.
AC Input connector: After you have made all other connections, plug the supplied Ac
power cord into this receptacle and into an unswitched wall outlet.
