jacks to the composite and/or S-Video input of a
TV monitor or video projector to view the output
of any video source selected by the receiver’s
video switcher.
Front/Center Speaker Outputs:

these outputs to the ma or – terminals
on your front/center speakers. When making
speaker connections, always make certain to
maintain correct polarity by connecting the red
(+) terminals on the AVR to the red (+) terminals
on the speaker and the black (–) terminals on
the AVR to the black (–) terminals on the speak-
ers. (See page 14 for more information on
speaker polarity.)
Surround Speaker Outputs:
Connect
these outputs to the ma or – terminals
on your left and right surround speakers. When
making speaker connections always make cer-
tain to maintain correct polarity by connecting
the red (+) terminals on the AVR to the red (+)
terminals on the speakers and the black (–) ter-
minals on the AVR to the black (–) terminals on
the speakers. See page 14 for more information

power will remain on at this outlet regardless of
whether the AVR is on or off (in Standby), pro-
vided that the
Main Power
switch
1
is on.
Note:
The total power consumption of all
devices connected to the accessory outlets
should not exceed 100 watts from the
Unswitched Outlet
and 50 W from the
Switched Outlet
.
AC Power Cord:
Connect the AC plug to an
unswitched AC wall output.
DVD Video Inputs:

Either the Video or S-Video output of any
S-Video source must be connected to the
AVR, not both in parallel, otherwise the video
may be disturbed or its performance be
adversely effected.
6-Channel Direct Inputs:
These jacks are
used for connection to source devices such as
DVD-Audio or SACD players with discrete analog
outputs.
