System Connections • Please be certain that this unit is unplugged from the AC outlet before making any connections. • Since different components often have different terminal names, carefully read the operating instructions of the component connected. • Be sure to observe the color coding when connecting audio, video and speaker cords. • Make connections firmly and correctly. If not, it can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver. 1 13 5 4 12 11 6 3 9 8 9 10 7 2 9 15 14 1.
2. CONNECTING VIDEO COMPONENTS • The jacks of VIDEO 1 may also be connected to a DVD recorder or other digital video recording component. For details, refer to the operating instructions of the component to be connected. • The jacks of VIDEO 2/VIDEO 3 can also be connected to an additional video component such as a cable TV tuner or satellite system. • Connect the jacks of VIDEO 3 to the video component in the same way.
Continued Notes : • For stable signal transfer, we recommend using HDMI cords that are a maximum of 5 meters in length. • Among the components that support HDMI, some components can control other components via the HDMI connector. However, this unit cannot be controlled by another component via the HDMI connector. • The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be limited by the component that is connected.
Continued Notes : • When the VIDEO MODE is set to "AUTO" or "HDMI", if the 480i ~ 1080i video signals are input into the HDMI IN connector, the HDMI video signals are output from the HDMI MONITOR OUT only. • When the VIDEO MODE is set to "AUTO" or "COMPONENT" and no video signals are input into the HDMI IN, if 480i video signals are input into the COMPONENT INs, the component video signals are output from the MONITOR OUTs.
3. CONNECTING AUDIO COMPONENTS • The TAPE IN/OUT jacks can be connected to audio recording equipment such as a tape deck, an MD recorder, etc. 4.

5. CONNECTING DIGITAL INS AND OUT • The OPTICAL and the COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTs of the components that are connected to this unit can be connected to these DIGITAL INs. • A digital input should be connected to the components such as a CD player, DVD player, etc. capable of outputting DTS Digital Surround, Dolby Digital or PCM format digital signals, etc. • If the component with OPTICAL IN jack is connected to the OPTICAL OUT jack of this unit, you can record the high quality sound of CDs, etc.
7. CONNECTING SPEAKERS • Be sure to connect speakers firmly and correctly according to the channel(left and right) and the polarity (+ and -). If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connection is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. • For installing the speakers, refer to "Speaker placement" on page 12. • After installing the speakers, first adjust the speaker settings according to your environment and speaker layout.
Speaker placement Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your room and the wall coverings, etc. The typical example of speaker placement and recommendations are as follows : Front left and right speakers and center speaker • Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as flush with TV or monitor screen as possible. • Place the center speaker between the front left and right speakers and no further from the listening position than the front speakers.
8. CONNECTING XM (only for North America) • Connect the XM terminal to the XM Mini-Tuner system (sold separately). • Position the XM Mini-Tuner system near a south-facing window to receive the best signal. When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the XM Mini-Tuner system. • For the best reception, check the signal strength of the XM radio signal with using signal strength display mode, then adjust the position of the XM Mini-Tuner system until "SIGNAL : GOOD" is displayed.
