Connecting a CD player
To connect the digital audio output from the CD player, you can choose from either the coaxial or optical
connections. If you choose to use the optical connection, it needs to be assigned. For more information
about Digital Input Assignment ( page 49).

NOTE:
• If humming or other noise is generated when the ground wire is connected to the SIGNAL GND
terminal, disconnect the ground wire.
Connecting a turntable
• The phono input can accept signals from moving magnet (MM) and high output moving coil (MC) phono
cartridges. If your turntable is equipped with a low output MC cartridge, you will need to use a separate
MC head amplifier or step-up MC transformer.

Connecting the external inputs (EXT. IN) terminals
• These terminals are for inputting multi-channel audio signals from an outboard decoder, or a component
with a different type of multi-channel decoder, such as a DVD-Audio player, or a multi-channel Super
Audio CD player, or other future multi-channel sound format decoder.
• The video signal connection is the same as that for a DVD player ( page 9).
• For instructions on playback using the external input (EXT. IN) terminals ( page 25).
•With discs on which special copyright protection measures have been taken, however, the digital signals
may not be output from the DVD player. In this case, connect the DVD player’s analog multi-channel
output to the AVR-887’s EXT. IN terminals for playback. Also refer to your DVD player’s operating
instructions.
