Connecting digital audio components
The easiest way to hook up this receiver for surround sound (Dolby Digital and DTS sources) is to use a digital input.
You can do this by either coaxial or optical connections (you do not need to do both). The quality of these two types of
connections is the same but since some digital components only have one type of digital terminal, it is a matter of
matching like with like (for example, the coaxial output from the component to coaxial input on the receiver). This
receiver has five digital inputs (two coaxial inputs and three optical inputs) on the rear panel. Connect your digital
components as shown below.
There is one digital output jack which is marked
DIGITAL OUT
. If you connect this to the optical input on a digital
recorder (for example an MD, DAT or CD-R) you can make direct digital recordings with this unit.
When connecting your equipment, always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected from
the AC outlet.
• The arrows indicate the direction of the signal.
Note
• If your digital connections are different from the default settings, you should refer to
The Input Assign menu
on
page 64 to assign the jacks to the proper component(s).
• If you have a have a DVD-Audio or SACD compatible player, see
Connecting multichannel analog components
on
page 17.
