■
Connecting a multi-format player or an
external decoder
This unit is equipped with 8 additional input jacks (Front
L/R, Center, Surround L/R, Surround Back L/R and
Subwoofer) for analog multi-channel input from a multi-
format player, external decoder, etc.
Notes
•
When you select “MULTI CH” as the input source, the digital sound field
processor is automatically disabled.
•
Since this unit does not redirect signals input at the MULTI CH INPUT
jacks to accommodate for missing speakers, connect at least a 5.1-
channel speaker system when using this feature.
•
You can specify a video signal to be output during a multi-channel audio
reproduction (page 43). If your DVD player has analog multi-channel
output jacks, connect them to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks while making
a video connection (component video or composite).
■
Connecting an external amplifier
If you want to use another amplifier, connect an external
amplifier to the PRE OUT jacks. Each PRE OUT jack
outputs the same channel signals as the corresponding
speaker terminals.
Note
•
When you make connections to the PRE OUT jacks, do not make any
connections to the speaker terminals.

control input and output jack with the monaural analog
mini cable as follows.
