Connect Your HDMI Devices
If any of your source devices 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 an HDMI cable.

NOTE: If you  have  HDMI  devices  (such  as  an  Internet connection)  already  connected 
directly  to  your  TV,  you  can  feed  their  sound  to the AVR  via  the  HDMI  Monitor  Out 
connector’s Audio  Return Channel,  and  they will not  require  additional connections to 
the AVR.
Connect Your Component Video Devices
If any of your video source devices have component video connectors (and do not have 
HDMI  connectors), using the  component  video  connectors  will provide  superior  video 
performance. You will  also  need to make an  audio  connection from the device  to  the 
receiver.

Connect Your Composite Video Devices
Use  composite video  connectors  for  video source  devices  that  don’t  have  HDMI  or 
component video connectors. You will also need to make an audio connection from the 
source device to the receiver.

optical digital audio connectors. NOTE: Make only one type of digital connection (HDMI, 
optical or coaxial) from each device.

Connect Your Analog Audio Devices
Use the AVR’s analog audio connectors for source devices that don’t have HDMI or digital 
audio  connectors.  NOTE:  If  you’re  installing  a  multizone  system,  make  analog  audio 
connections for any source devices you want to be able to listen to in Zone 2. Only analog 
sources are available in Zone 2.
