Connecting other audio 
components
The number and kind of connections depends 
on the kind of component you’re connecting.
1
Follow the steps below to connect a CD-R, MD, 
DAT, tape recorder or other audio component.
1 If your component has a digital output, 
connect this to a digital input on the receiver 
as shown.
The example shows an optical connection to 
the DIGITAL OPTICAL IN 1 (CD-R/TAPE) 
input.
2 If necessary, connect the analog audio 
outputs of the component to a set of spare 
audio inputs on this receiver.
You’ll need to make this connection for 
components without a digital output, or if you 
want to record from a digital component. Use a 
stereo RCA phono cable as shown.
3 If you’re connecting a recorder, connect 
the analog audio outputs to the analog audio 
inputs on the recorder.
The example shows an analog connection to 
the CD-R/TAPE analog output jack using a 
stereo RCA phono cable.
Note
1 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.
