Audio Connections
■
Using Optical or Coaxial Connections
• Use an optical digital audio cable to connect the
TX-SR501/TX-SR501E’s OPTICAL 1 DIGITAL INPUT
to the optical output on your DVD player, as shown.
OR
• Use a coaxial digital audio cable to connect the TX-SR501/
TX-SR501E’s COAXIAL DIGITAL INPUT to the coaxial
output on your DVD player, as shown.
Initially, the OPTICAL 1 digital input is assigned to the DVD
input source. If you connect your DVD player to a different
digital input, you’ll need to assign that input to the DVD
input source (see page 24).
■
Using Analog Connections
Even if your DVD player is connected digitally (coaxial or
optical), to use
, or to record audio from your DVD
player, you’ll need to make analog connections as well.
Use an RCA/phono audio cable to connect the TX-SR501/
TX-SR501E’s FRONT DVD IN connectors to the analog
audio outputs on your DVD player, as shown.
If your DVD player has L/R outputs and multi-channel 5.1
outputs, be sure to use the L/R outputs.
■
Using Multi-channel Connections
Use a multi-channel RCA/phono audio cable to connect the
TX-SR501/TX-SR501E’s L/R FRONT, L/R SURR, CEN-
TER, and SUB WOOFER DVD IN connectors to the 5.1 ana-
log outputs on your DVD player, as shown.
Alternatively, use three stereo RCA/phono audio cables.
