and composite video inputs are also provided if your TV or DBS tuner does not have component
video outputs.
• To connect the digital audio output from the TV or DBS tuner, you can choose from either the
coaxial or optical connections. If you choose to use the coaxial connection, it needs to be
assigned. For more information about Digital Input Assignment ( page 42).

• These terminals are for inputting multi-channel audio signals from an external decoder, or a
component with a different type of multi-channel decoder, such as a DVD Audio player, a multi-
channel Super Audio CD player, or another future multi-channel sound format decoder.
• The video signal connection is the same as that for a DVD player.
• For instructions on playback using the external input (EXT. IN) terminals ( page 16).
• With discs on which special copyright protection measures have been taken, 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-1706’s EXT. IN terminals for playback. Also refer to your DVD player’s
operating instructions.
