We also recommend that the length of
cable used to connect speaker pairs be
identical. For example, use the same
length piece of cable to connect the
front-left and front-right or surround-left
and surround-right speakers, even if the
speakers have a different distance from
the AVR480.
8. Connections to a subwoofer are
normally made via a line-level audio
connection from the
Subwoofer
Output to the line-level input of a
subwoofer with a built-in amplifier.
When a passive subwoofer is used, the
connection first goes to a power ampli-
fier, which will be connected to one or
more subwoofer speakers. If you are
using a powered subwoofer that does
not have line-level input connections,
follow the instructions furnished with
the speaker for connection information.
NOTE: Speaker sets with two front satel-
lites and a passive subwoofer must be
connected to the front
Speaker Outputs
only rather than to the Subwoofer
Output .
Video Equipment Connections
Video equipment is connected in the same
manner as audio components. Again, the
use of high-quality interconnect cables is
recommended to preserve signal quality.
To ensure best video performance,
S-Video sources should be connected
to the AVR480 using only their S-Video
In/Outputs. Do not connect their
composite video connectors.
1. Connect a VCR’s audio and video
Play/Out jacks to the Video 1 Input
Jacks on the rear panel. The
Audio and Video Record/In jacks on
the VCR should be connected to the
Video 1 Output Jacks on
the AVR480.
2. Connect the analog audio and video
outputs of a satellite receiver, cable TV
converter or television set or any other
video source to the
Video 2 or
Video 3
#
Input Jacks .
3. Connect one of the video outputs of a
DVD or laser disc player to one of the
DVD Video Input Jacks .
4. Connect the Video Monitor Out
jacks on the receiver to the composite
and S-Video inputs of your television
monitor or video projector.
Remember to select the correct video input
on your TV for the source input you wish to
view. Consult the owner’s guide for your
TV for information on its video inputs.
Video Connection Notes:
• If your DVD player, HDTV set-top box,
cable box, satellite receiver or other
video source device is equipped with
component (Y/Pr/Pb) video outputs that
are compatible with component video
inputs on your video display, then it is
recommended that you connect the
source’s component video outputs
directly to the corresponding compo-
nent video inputs on the video display.
In that case, you only need to connect
the source’s audio outputs to the AVR.
• S-Video or composite video signals may
only be viewed in their native formats
and will not be converted to the other
format. Thus both connections must be
made from the AVR480 to the TV if
both composite video and S-Video
sources are used, and the appropriate
input on the TV must be selected.
• For the connections described above,
your video device needs RCA intercon-
nect cables and/or S-Video connectors
for all Audio and Video signals. Any
normal video device (not S-VHS or
High 8) for playback only needs three
interconnect cables; VCRs for record
and playback require six interconnect
cables. Any S-Video device (S-VHS,
High 8) needs two interconnect cables
(Audio) and one S-Video cable (Video),
if it’s a playback unit, or four intercon-
nect cables (Audio In/Out) and two
S-Video (Video In/Out) cables, if it’s
a recording VCR.
• Only the video cables (the “yellow”
composite video or the S-Video cable)
need to be connected to the
TV
Monitor Output . The volume on
the TV should be reduced to minimum.
• Only the S-Video In/Out of S-Video
devices should be connected to the
AVR, NOT both composite video and
S-Video In/Outputs (except the TV;
see item 4).
