Connecting other audio
components
The number and kind of connections depends
on the kind of component you’re connecting.
1
Follow the steps below to connect a CD-R, MD,
DAT, tape recorder or other audio component.
1
If your component has a digital output,
connect this to a digital input on the receiver
as shown.
The example shows a coaxial connection to the
CD
digital input jack using a coaxial digital
audio cable.
2
If necessary, connect the analog audio
outputs of the component to a set of spare
audio inputs on this receiver.
You’ll need to make this connection for
components without a digital output, or if you
want to record from a digital component. Use a
stereo RCA phono cable as shown.
3
If you’re connecting a recorder, connect
the analog audio outputs (REC) to the analog
audio inputs on the recorder.
The example shows an analog connection to
the
CD-R/TAPE/MD
analog output jack using
a stereo RCA phono cable.
About the WMA9 Pro decoder
This unit has an on-board Windows Media
®
Audio 9 Professional (WMA9 Pro) decoder, so
it is possible to playback WMA9 Pro-encoded
audio using a coaxial or optical digital
connection when connected to a WMA9 Pro-
compatible player.
Note
1 Note that you must connect digital components to analog audio jacks if you want to record to/from digital components (like
an MD) to/from analog components.
