We
recommend connecting the coaxial digital output terminal
of
a CD player
to
the
AV3
jack.
• When connecting a turntable with a low-output MC cartridge to the PHONO jacks, use
an
in-line boosting transformer or MC-head amplifier.
• Connect your turntable
to
the GND terminal
of
this unit
to
reduce noise in the signal.
About
audio/video
output
terminals
Among the analog audio and analog video signals input to this unit via input terminals, the audio/video signals
of
the
selected input sources are output from the
AV
OUT jacks and AUDIO OUT jacks. An HDMI input signal,
COMPONENT VIDEO input signal or digital audio input signal cannot be output.
When using the
AV
OUT jacks: connect an external component to the VIDEO or analog audio terminal.
When using the AUDIO OUT jacks: connect an external component to the analog audio terminal.
• Connecting a multi-format player
or
an
external decoder
This unit is equipped with 8 additional input jacks (Front
LIR, Center, Surround LIR, Surround Back LIR and
Subwoofer) for analog multi-channel input from a multi-
format player, external decoder, etc.
Notes
• When you select "MULTI CH" as the input source, the digital sound field
processor
is
automatically disabled.
• Since this unit does not redirect signals input at the MULTI CH INPUT
jacks
to
accommodate for missing speakers, connect
at
least a 5.1-
channel speaker system when using this feature.
•
You
can specify a video signal
to
be output during a multi-channel audio
reproduction (page 49).
If
your DVD player has analog multi-channel
output jacks, connect them
to
the MULTI CH INPUT jacks while making
a video connection (component video or composite).
