Connecting audio devices (such as CD players)
Connect audio devices such as CD players, MD players, and a turntable to the unit.
Depending on the audio output jacks available on your audio device, choose one of the
following connections.
* RX-V777 only (except for U.S.A. and Canada models)
If you select the input source by pressing AV 1–6, AUDIO 1–2 or PHONO*, the audio
played back on the audio device will be output from the unit.
Connecting to the jacks on the front panel
Use the VIDEO AUX jack to temporarily connect a playback device to the unit.
Use the USB jack to connect an iPod or a USB storage device. For details, see
“Connecting an iPod” (p.63) or “Connecting a USB storage device” (p.66).
Before making a connection, stop playback on the device and turn down the volume on
the unit.
❑
HDMI connection
Connect an HDMI-compatible device (such as game consoles and camcorders) to the
unit with an HDMI cable.
If you select “V-AUX” as the input source by pressing V-AUX, the video/audio played
back on the device will be output from the unit.
• To watch videos input to the VIDEO AUX (HDMI IN) jack, you need to connect your TV to the HDMI OUT
jack of the unit (p.23).
• You need to prepare an HDMI cable that match the output jacks on your device.
• When “USB” is selected as the input source, video signals input to the VIDEO jack are output from the
HDMI OUT and MONITOR OUT (VIDEO) jacks.
