Connecting to Digital Jacks
The RX-V1 has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You can use the digital
jacks to input PCM, DTS and Dolby Digital bitstreams. When you connect components to both the
COAXIAL
and
OPTICAL
jacks (for CD,
DVD, and CBL/SAT) priority is given to the input signals from the
COAXIAL
jack. All digital input jacks are acceptable for 96 kHz/24 bit
digital signals.

About the Dust Protection Cap
Pull out the cap from the optical jack before you connect the fiber optic cable. Do
not discard the cap. When you are not using the optical jack, be sure to put the cap
back in place. This cap protects the jack from dust.
About the Video Jacks
There are three types of video jacks. Video signals input through the
VIDEO
jacks are the conventional composite video signals. Video
signals input through the
S VIDEO
jacks are separated into luminance (
Y
) and color (
C
) video signals. The S-video signals achieve high
quality color reproduction.
Video signals input through the
COMPONENT VIDEO
jacks are separated into luminance (
Y
) and color difference (

signals. The jacks are also separated into three for each signal. The description of the component video jacks may be different depending on
the component (e.g. Y, C

/ Y, B-Y, R-Y/ etc.). Component video signals provide the best quality in picture reproduction.
Note:
• Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input through the composite
video, S-video, and component jacks are output through the corresponding composite
video, S-video, and component jacks respectively.
Caution:
• Use a commercially available S-video cable when connecting to the
S VIDEO
jacks,
and commercially available video cables when connecting to the
COMPONENT
VIDEO
jacks.
• When you are using the
COMPONENT VIDEO
jacks, check the details in the owner’s
manual that came with the component being connected.
About the RF (AC-3) Signal Input Jack
If your LD player has an
RF (AC-3) signal output jack, connect it to the
RF (AC-3)
input jack on this unit. If
RF (AC-3) and analog
signals are input at the same time, priority is given to the RF signals. When you want to reproduce
RF (AC-3) signals, set the input mode
to “D.D. RF” using
INPUT MODE
.
Note:
•
RF (AC-3) signals cannot be output using the
REC OUT
selector. When you record
sound or images from an LD player, be sure to connect the player to either the
DIGITAL OPTICAL
or analog
AUDIO
jacks.
Caution:
• Even if you connect an LD player with an
RF (AC-3) output jack to this unit, you
cannot reproduce Dolby Digital sound from all LD discs. You must playback an LD
disc encoded with Dolby Digital signals in order to take advantage of the Dolby Digital
sound.
