If your video cassette recorder, LD player, etc. and your monitor are equipped with “S” (high-resolution) video terminals, connect
them to this unit’s S video terminals, and connect this unit’s S MON OUT terminal to the “S” video input of your monitor. Otherwise,
connect the composite video terminals from your video cassette recorder, LD player, etc. to the composite video terminals of this
unit, and connect this unit’s composite MON OUT terminal to the composite video input of your monitor.

Note
If video signals are sent to both S video input and composite video input terminals, the signals will be sent to their respective output
terminals independently.

ABOUT THE ACCESSORY COMPONENTS ON THE REAR PANEL

AC OUTLETS (SWITCHED)

(U.S.A., Canada, Europe and General models)

............................................................3 SWITCHED OUTLETS

(Australia and U.K. models) ..................1 SWITCHED OUTLET

Use these to connect the power cords from your components
(except a power amplifier, integrated amplifier and receiver) to
this unit.
The maximum power (total power consumption of
components) that can be connected to the SWITCHED AC
OUTLETS 
is 200 watts.  Strictly be careful not to exceed this
value.
The power to the SWITCHED outlets is controlled by this unit’s
POWER switch or the provided remote control transmitter’s
POWER key.  These outlets will supply power to any
component whenever this unit is turned on.

PHONO switch

Select either MM or MC position depending on your PHONO
cartridge, Moving Magnet or Moving Coil type. However, if you
use a high output MC cartridge, select MM position.

CARTRIDGE LOAD switch 

<

For CX-1 only

>

Set to either impedance position (220

or 1 k

) proper for the

PHONO MC cartridge being used by your turntable.

GND terminal (For turntable use) 

Connecting the ground wire of the turntable to this terminal will
normally minimize hum, but in some cases better results may
be obtained with the ground wire disconnected.

REMOTE CONTROL (POWER AMP)

connector

If you have the YAMAHA power amplifier MX-1 or MX-2,
connect this connector to the REMOTE CONTROL (PRE
AMP) connector of the power amplifier by using the provided
cable. By this connection, the power of the power amplifier is
controlled by this unit’s POWER switch or the provided remote
control transmitter’s POWER key. 
After the connection is completed, keep the POWER switch of
the power amplifier pressed inward (to the ON position).
Note
If you will not connect the REMOTE CONTROL connectors of
this unit and the power amplifier, do not connect the cable to
either connector.
