By connecting your receiver to the latest digital amplifiers or home theatre systems with HDMI
connections, you will enjoy the best possible sound quality and multi-channel audio (depending on
broadcast). Connect the HDMI output of the receiver to an input of your amplifier, and then connect
the HDMI output of the amplifier to your TV set. Select the correct input on your amplifier to watch
and listen to programmes.

We recommend the use of a hard disk drive USB 2.0 or higher for recording
and play back of TV events.
For proper functioning of Time Shift and recording functions, a fast USB device (such as a hard
disk drive) is needed. Interrupted playback or a distorted picture during playback or Time Shift are
indications for a low device speed. STRONG cannot guarantee proper functioning of recoding and or
Time Shift functions with all USB devices.
