CONNECTION
Audio connections:
Some video components are equipped with special digital audio
outputs (e.g. DVD players). If your video component is equipped
with a digital audio output, it is recommended that you connect to
your unit using a digital cable. Digital audio cables are required to
use the DTS and Dolby Digital surround sound modes. If you do
not use digital connections, your unit will only operate in Dolby
PRO LOGICII, MUSIC, THEATER, HALL and 5 Stereo surround
modes. There are two types of digital cables-coaxial (75 ohm) and
optical. Your unit is equipped with both types of digital inputs.
These inputs are labelled COAXIAL IN and OPTICAL IN on the
rear of the unit. Connect the video component outputs to any one
of the two digital inputs on your unit. If the video component is not
equipped with a digital output, use a dual RCA to RCA composite
audio cable to connect to your unit. Make sure to connect:
White plug to white jack (L: left)
Red plug to red jack (R: right)
Note:
When an optical cable is used, remove the protection caps from
the component and your unit before attempting to insert the optical
cable. If not using an optical cable or if the cable is removed,
always re-install the protection caps to prevent dirt and dust from
entering the inputs. If using a coaxial digital cable, leave the
protection caps in both the video component and your unit.
CD, TAPE jacks
Connect the component with RCA to RCA cords.
Make sure to connect:
White plug to white jack (L: left)
Red plug to red jack (R: right)
DIGITAL IN/OUT terminals
If the CD player or MD player has digital outputs, connect the
component with coaxial cables or optical cables.
DIGITAL IN to DIGITAL OUT
(CD, etc.)
DIGITAL OUT to DIGITAL IN
(MD, etc.)
Connect to any one of the DIGITAL IN terminals. When using
DIGITAL OPTICAL IN terminals, remove the caps from the
terminals. When you do not use them, leave the caps in place. To
record digitally, connect the source (CD player, etc.) to DIGITAL IN
and the recorder (MD, etc.) to DIGITAL OUT.
