The main outputs provide six discrete analog audio outputs for connecting to
the power amplifiers and loudspeakers in the surround system. In addition,
balanced outputs are available for the main left and right channels, for use
with a power amplifier that provides balanced inputs.

The P30 provides a total of 16 audio inputs, eight digital and eight analog.
Because the P30 is configurable, you have total flexibility about which digital
input you use for each of your digital sources, and which analog input you use
for each of your analog sources. The P30 is supplied with a suggested set of
sources already set up, and you may choose to leave the inputs assigned in
this way. However, if you prefer, you can re-assign the inputs to sources in any
way you prefer to suit the equipment in your system, and the way you would
like to wire it up.
Digital inputs
The P30 Processor provides one AES/EBU digital input, five SPDIF digital
inputs, and two optical TOSlink digital inputs.
Analog inputs
The P30 provides eight analog inputs; one balanced input for connection to a
source providing balanced outputs, and seven line-level stereo phono inputs.

The P30 provides a choice of either composite video or S-Video connections.
If your source or monitor provides both composite and S-Video connections we
recommend using the S-Video connections, as these provide higher quality.
Video inputs
The P30 provides four composite video inputs and three S-Video inputs.
Video outputs
The P30 provides two composite video outputs and two S-Video outputs.
Connecting to a television or monitor
Connect the appropriate output to your television or monitor. If you are using
both composite and S-Video sources you will need to make a connection from
both the composite video output and the S-Video output to your monitor.
If your television includes a tuner output you can use the P30 to perform
switching between the television tuner and your other video sources such as
DVD or LaserDisc. In this case connect the television tuner output to the video
input corresponding to your TV source. If your television does not provide a
tuner output you will need to switch the television between its internal tuner and
the external video input.
