Analog audio cables
Use stereo RCA phono cables to connect analog audio
components. These cables are typically red and white, and
you should connect the red plugs to R (right) terminals and
white plugs to L (left) terminals.
Digital audio cables
Commercially available coaxial digital audio cables or optical
cables should be used to connect digital components to this
receiver.
Note
• When connecting optical cables, be careful when
inserting the plug not to damage the shutter protecting
the optical socket.
• When storing optical cable, coil loosely. The cable may be
damaged if bent around sharp corners.
• You can also use a standard RCA video cable for coaxial
digital connections.
Standard RCA video cables
These cables are the most common type of video connection
and are used to connect to the composite video terminals.
The yellow plugs distinguish them from cables for audio.
About the video converter
The video converter ensures that all video sources are output
from
HDMI OUT
terminal. The only exception is HDMI: since
this resolution cannot be downsampled, you must connect
your monitor/TV to the receiver’s HDMI video outputs when
connecting this video source.
Note
• If several video components are assigned to the same
input function, the converter gives priority to HDMI, then
composite (in that order).
• If the video signal does not appear on your TV, try
adjusting the resolution settings on your component or
display. Note that some components (such as video game
units) have resolutions that may not be converted. In this
case, try switching Video Converter
OFF
(see
Video
Converter
on page 39).
• The signal input resolutions that can be converted from
the component video input for the HDMI output are 480i/
576i, 480p/576p, 720p and 1080i. 1080p signal cannot be
converted.
