Making Connections

Connect Your HDMI Devices

If any of your source devices have HDMI connectors, using them will provide the best 
possible video and audio performance quality. Since the HDMI cable carries both digital 
video and digital audio signals, you do not have to make any additional audio connections 
for devices you connect via an HDMI cable.

AVR HDMI Connectors

HDMI Cable

To HDMI 
Output

NOTE:

 If you have HDMI devices (such as an Internet connection) already connected 

directly to your TV, you can feed their sound to the AVR via the HDMI Out connector’s 
Audio Return Channel, and they will not require additional connections to the AVR. 

Connect Your Component Video Devices

If any of your video source devices have component video connectors (and do not have 
HDMI connectors), using the component video connectors will provide superior video 
performance. You will also need to make an audio connection from the device to the 
receiver.

Connect Your Composite Video Devices

Use composite video connectors for video source devices that don’t have HDMI or 
component video connectors. You will also need to make an audio connection from the 
source device to the receiver.

Connect Your Optical Digital Audio Devices

If your non-HDMI source devices have optical digital outputs, connect them to the AVR’s 
optical digital audio connectors. 

NOTE:

 Make only one type of digital connection (HDMI, 

optical or coaxial) from each device.

Connect Your Coaxial Digital Audio Devices

If your non-HDMI source device has a coaxial digital output, connect it to the AVR’s 
coaxial digital audio connector. 

NOTE:

 Make only one type of digital connection (HDMI, 

optical or coaxial) from each device.
