audio/video
connections
Before connecting your AV950/AVR750/450/380 to
your source components and speakers, please read
through the next few pages which will explain all the
input and output connectivity that is available. e
‘Speakers’ section explains how to connect up your
speakers to avoid damage to the amplier and how to
arrange your speakers for best performance.
General
e inputs are named to make it easier to reference
connected devices (e.g. ‘BD’ or ‘VCR’). ey all have the
same input circuit, so there is no reason why you should
not connect a dierent device to any of the inputs. For
example, if you had two BD players and the AV input
was not being used, then the second BD player could be
connected to the AV input.
When connecting a video source, its audio must be
connected to the corresponding sockets. For example,
if you a had a satellite decoder plugged into a SAT video
input, the audio must be connected to the SAT audio
inputs!
Generally, HDMI connections provide better quality
than Composite, although for a video source to
be available in Zone2 you must have a Composite
connection between AV950/AVR750/450/380 and the
source.
Making connections
< Wherever possible, connect both the analogue
and digital outputs of digital sources. is enables
use of a digital input for the main zone and the
corresponding analogue input for the Zone2 output.
< Take care to place cables as far from any power
supply cabling as is practicable, to reduce hum and
other noise problems.
HDMI connectors
STB, GAME, AV, SAT, BD, VCR, PVR
Connect the HDMI video outputs of your source
equipment to these corresponding HDMI inputs.
OUTPUT
Connect this output to the HDMI video input of your
display device. is output is compatible with the
HDMI 1.4 Audio Return Channel (ARC). If you have
a supported television then sound from the television’s
internal tuner (e.g. Freeview, Freesat, DVB-T) will be
available using the AV950/AVR750/450/380’s ‘Display’
input.
NOTE:
For each input, you must set the ‘Video Source’ and
‘Audio Source’ settings according to the connection
type.

Important notes about Component video
inputs
< When you connect your devices to these
connectors, take care to follow the letter/colour
coding for each input. No damage will occur but
incorrectly coloured or unstable pictures will
result.

video and HDTV video signals.
Component video connectors
ese inputs are suitable for connection to source
devices which output Component (YUV or YPbPr) high
quality analogue video signals. ese signals are usually
available from BD players, set-top boxes or games
consoles.

Front panel AUX input
AVR750
e front panel AUX input can be used as an analogue or
optical digital input.
For analogue sources, use a stereo 3.5mm lead; for
digital sources use a 3.5mm optical lead. e front input
is also used for the auto-setup microphone input.
Front panel PHONES socket
is socket accepts headphones with an impedance
rating between 32Ω and 600Ω, tted with a 3.5mm
stereo jack plug. e headphone socket is always active,
except when AV950/AVR750/450/380 is muted.
When the headphone jack is inserted, the speaker
outputs and analogue preamplier outputs are
automatically muted.
