Connecting Your Equipment
Video Components
Connect your video components to the jacks as shown below. Regarding a DVD there are two types of
connections to make. Hook up your video signal with either S-video or composite video cords (the quality
descends in this order) but remember, the video component you are watching and your TV must be hooked up
with same type of video cord or you won't be able to see the picture. For the audio signal, order to use Dolby
Digital/DTS you must hook up a digital input. It is also a good idea to hook up your DVD components with analog
audio connections as well, since some DVDs may not have a digital audio track. To cover all possible Laser Discs
a DVD/LD player or LD player requires an analog connection and two digital connections (a coaxial or optical and
a specialized RF demodulator connection shown on the previous page).
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC
wall outlet.
*The arrows indicate the direction of the video signal.

Front panel video connections are accessed
via the MULTI JOG dial as "VIDEO."
If your video components have S-video jacks, you
could use S-video cords (not supplied) to connect
them on the back of the receiver. These jacks are labeled
by the Japanese designation "S2" on the rear panel of the
VSX-D709S but they are simply S-video jacks.
However, if you use S-video cords for your video hook ups
you must also hook up your TV with S-video connections.
Conversely, if you use regular composite video cords for
video hook ups, you should use them for your TV as well.
