CHAPTER 2
8-Channel Input connections (analog audio)
This input is really useful as an
input for DVD A, SACD, etc., as a mul-
tichannel direct (DSP-bypass) input.
If your DVD player has its own sur-
round processing circuits you can con-
nect it as shown. The surround back
inputs can be left disconnected if your
player does not have these outputs.
An external surround processor can
also be connected like this. You will
have to connect some of your sources
to the external processor, so it can
process the original signals.
Note: The eight channels of audio
from the DVD bypass the DSP circuits
of the TGR-3, so the tone controls,
bass management and sur round
mode se lec tions will have no effect.
This provides the highest
fi
delity
signal path for SACD or DVD-Audio,
free from any coloration or processor
circuitry.
This input is only for the Main Zone,
it is not selectable for Zone 2.
The video output in this example is
connected to the TGR-3 DVD com-
posite video input. Use the OSD 8-CH
input con
fi
guration menu to lock the
8-channel input to DVD video (see
page 34 for details). Whenever the
8-channel input is selected, the DVD
video will also be selected.

In this diagram, the player's digital
output is also connected. If you select
the TGR-3's DVD input, you will get
DVD video and DVD digital audio. If
you select the TGR-3's 8-Channel
input, you will get DVD video, and
analog audio from the 8-channel input.
