Connecting your equipment
This receiver provides you with many connection possibilities, but it doesn’t have to be difficult. This chapter
explains the kinds of components you can connect to make up your home theater system.
CAUTION
! Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the
power outlet. Plugging in should be the final step.
! When making connections, also keep the power cords of the devices being connected unplugged from the
power outlets.
! Depending on the device being connected (amplifier, receiver, etc.), the methods of connection and terminal
names may differ from the explanations in this manual. Also refer to the operating instructions of the respec-
tive devices.
