System Connections
Like the front panel, the GTP-860II’s
rear panel is carefully arranged to
make hookup, configuration, and use
as simple as possible. However, the
GTP-860II’s capabilities take some
study to use most effectively. We
strongly suggest that you read this sec-
tion of the manual before beginning
to hook up your system. You will save
yourself much time and effort if you
carefully think out what you expect
from your system: consider the com-
ponents you will use, where they’ll
be placed, and how you will want
them to work together. The diagrams
and notes in this section will probably
answer most of your questions about
interfacing the GTP-860II with other
components in your system.
Note that the GTP-860II’s RCA-style
jacks have color-coded centers to
make connections easier. Use this key
to help route cables properly:
RED centers = RIGHT CHANNEL
ANALOG AUDIO inputs or outputs
WHITE centers = LEFT CHANNEL
ANALOG AUDIO inputs or outputs
YELLOW centers = VIDEO inputs
(composite)
BLACK centers = DIGITAL AUDIO
inputs, CENTER CHANNEL and
SUBWOOFER inputs and outputs

] Antenna Connections
AM Antenna: An AM loop antenna is
supplied with the GTP-860II and is
required for AM reception. Open the
clip terminal lever and insert the
wire from the antenna. Closing the
lever will lock the wire in place. Test
various positions for the antenna, but
always ensure the loop is placed verti-
cally for best reception. Placing the
antenna close to large metal items
such as metal shelves or radiators may
interfere with reception.
NOTE: When reception is not satis-
factory using the supplied AM loop
antenna alone, connection of an
external antenna is recommended.
The antenna cable to the loop anten-
na must not exceed three meters.
